# mkxp
mkxp is a project that seeks to provide a fully open source implementation of the Ruby Game Scripting System (RGSS) interface used in the popular game creation software "RPG Maker XP" (trademark by Enterbrain, Inc.), with focus on Linux. The goal is to be able to run games created with the above software natively without changing a single file. Experimental support for RPG Maker VX / VX Ace games is present.

RGSS2 might work a little bit less than 3 because I don't have a VX license and as such am unable to experiment thoroughly on it.
## Bindings
Bindings provide the glue code for an interpreted language environment to run game scripts in. Currently there are three bindings:
