AthleticsGameCore – Summer & Winter Event Minigames (MZ)

Turn your RPG into an Athletics arena

Athletics CoreMZ drops a complete AthleticGames programme into RPG Maker MZ with a single plugin file. Talk to an event, pick a sport, choose your difficulty, and play — sprints, hurdles, javelin, long jump, swimming, archery, ski jumping, slalom, speed skating and curling, each with its own controls, rivals, HUD and result screen.

No image assets to install. Every athlete, stadium, pool, hill and curling sheet is pixel art generated by the plugin at start-up and drawn at 3× with crisp nearest-neighbour scaling.

Part of the MZ Minigame Collection. This plugin is one of a growing library of themed minigames for RPG Maker MZ, from board games and puzzles to sports, casino and crafting. Mix and match to fill your world with things to do.
