Makers
Tools that are mainly used to create games. If you need help getting started with these tools, take a look in the Referenced Resources for links to community pages etc.
RPG-Maker XP/VX/VX ACE (Shareware, Windows)
Plattform: Windows. Run-time Package will not work on WINE via Linux.
The maybe most commonly used game making tool. Offers a great set of features and high ways of customization by custom-script support. The tool itself and games created with it work on Windows only. A recent version known as VX ACE allows game makers to utilize more tile-sets via the database, rather than load only a few tile-sets at once.
Homepage
Game Maker (Freeware/Shareware, Windows/Mac)
Platform: Current Version (8) is Windows only. Game Maker 7 available for Mac.
The maybe second most common game making tool. Also offers a great set of features, keeps things more generic and is therefore not as easy to use as RPG-Maker. Nearly any kind of game can be created using this tool.
Homepage
Game Maker:HTML5 ($99)
Very similar to above--not able to use Windows DLLs (eg, multiplayer games, etc), uses a different creation tool, but very similar to the PC version. Games run in web browsers that support HTML5 (IE9, Firefox 4+, Chrome, iPad, Safari, etc)

CallEvent Script (RPG Maker XP) by gtsfan9
Simple script to call an event from another event.
For example: If you have five events which should all do the same thing you can, instead of copying them, use one as "base-event" (or add a new event to be used as base-event) and make, using this script, all other events call that base-event. This reduces redundancy.

General edit notes and rule descriptions
General notes for image editing:
- If an image contains multiple images (comics for example) then all rules defined for that image appear for any single part (sub-image) of the base-image. The user may generally be allowed to cut and use only the sub-images from that base-image (this doesn't mean that rectangular cut rights appear to the sub-images).
- All edit rules appear for statical editings only. However a game can also apply filters, move images above others, cut off parts of images etc. which is generally allowed but has to be animated and not statically applied (all the time) except the corresponding edit rule is given.
Edit Rule: Sizing and Rotating (Default)
Means sizing and rotating of the whole image.Note: This is a default rule. All resources provided allow this rule by default.
Edit Rule: Joining (Default)
Means joining of different images together. They must be joined at their borders which must be obviously different. They may not flow/proceed from one to another. (Means you can't for example cut off a head from a character and join it with another characters neck.)Note: This is a default rule. All resources provided allow this rule by default.
Additional Edit Rule: Edit Text Elements
Means adding, removing and modifing of text elements (but not their graphical parts like backgrounds etc).This rule allows you for example to refill texts in speech balloons.
Additional Edit Rule: Edit Text Elements + Graphical Parts
Means adding, removing and modifing of text elements and their attached graphical parts (like speech balloons, lines pointing from a text to the image etc.).
Additional Edit Rule: Use Rectangular Part
Means cut out a rectangular region from the image and use this part instead of the whole image.This rule allows you for example to use only a face of a character.
Additional Edit Rule: Apply Filters
Means applying filters like sharping, blurring, recoloring etc. the image should be still recognizable.
Additional Edit Rule: Full Edit Rights
Means any way of editing the resource without any restrictions.
After Edit Rule: Add Text ("the text which has to be added")
Forces you to add a specified text like "by <authorname>" in one of the image corners after the image was edited and the original sign of the author has been removed. It must be in Arial, 8pt, well readable color and fully visible.Note: This rule does not require any "Edit Text Element" permissions.
