Still writing JRPG battle systems from scratch?
Seriously. Stop it.
Simple JRPG handles the battle flow so you can focus on what makes your game unique — your damage formulas, your status effects, your UI.
Set up your characters, pick a turn system, and start calling actions.
Simple JRPG manages turn order, tracks battle state, and notifies you whenever something happens so you can react however you want.

HOW IT WORKS
- Create a battle, add your characters, pick a turn system — your choice.
- Call actions like DealDamage, Heal, Revive, or Flee. You calculate the numbers, Simple JRPG applies them and tells your game what happened.
- Every action triggers an event — damage dealt, character knocked out, status applied, battle ended.
- Hook into any of these to update your UI, play animations, trigger sound effects, or run custom logic.
- Simple JRPG doesn't care what your stats look like, what "Fire" means in your game, or how you calculate damage. That's all yours.
5 TURN SYSTEMS INCLUDED
• Classic — Characters act in speed order, one round at a time. The standard JRPG turn system.
• ATB (Active Time Battle) — Each character has a gauge that fills based on their speed. When it's full, they can act. Faster characters act more often.
• Timeline / CTB — Every action has a cost. Heavy attacks push your next turn further away. Light actions let you act again sooner. A visible timeline shows who acts when.
• Press Turn — Teams take turns in phases. Each phase starts with a pool of action points. Smart plays conserve points; mistakes waste them.
• Action Point — Characters can save points by skipping their turn, then spend those saved points later for multiple actions in a row.
• Want something different? Implement the turn system interface and build your own. You can just do that if you want.
ACTIONS
- DealDamage — hit one target or a whole group
- Heal — restore HP to one target or a whole group
- Kill — instantly knock out a character
- Revive — bring a knocked-out character back
- ApplyStatus — apply any status effect (poison, stun, whatever you define)
- RemoveStatus — remove a status effect from a character
- ApplyBuff — apply any buff or debuff (attack up, defense down, your call)
- RemoveBuff — remove a buff or debuff from a character
- Flee — escape from battle
- RemoveCombatant — pull a character out of battle entirely
- EndBattle — manually end the battle with a specific outcome
- You could add more events if you want.
20 EVENTS
- Battle started, battle ended
- Turn started, turn ended
- Before damage, before heal (intercept and modify or cancel)
- Damage dealt, healed
- Character knocked out, character revived
- Status applied, status removed
- Buff applied, buff removed
- Fled, character removed
- Group damage dealt, group healed, group status applied, group buff applied
Every action fires an event.
There's no built-in UI or animation system — you listen for the events you care about and handle them your way.
INTERCEPT ACTIONS BEFORE THEY HAPPEN
- The "before damage" and "before heal" events fire before the action goes through.
- Change the damage amount, boost healing, or cancel the action entirely.
- Use these to build dodge mechanics, shields, damage reduction, healing amplification — anything.
BUILT-IN HELPERS
- Get all enemies, allies, alive characters, or dead characters with one call
- Full battle history — every action recorded with turn number and sequence
- Battle result summary — outcome, total turns, survivors
- Automatic win/loss detection
TEMPLATE GENERATOR
- Window > Simple JRPG > Generate Battle Controller
- Pick a turn system, name your script, hit Generate.
- Get a complete, ready-to-run script with placeholder logic and clear TODO comments showing you exactly what to customize.
- Attach it to a GameObject, hit Play, and you have a working battle.
YOUR CHARACTERS, YOUR RULES
- Your character class just needs to provide: a name, whether they're alive, which team they're on, their speed, and methods to take damage and heal.
- Beyond that, add whatever you want — MP, defense, elemental resistances, equipment, level, anything.
- Simple JRPG never touches your custom stats. It only uses what it needs to run the battle.
CLEAN, PORTABLE CODE
- No singletons, no global state, no MonoBehaviours, no ScriptableObjects.
- Create a battle, use it, done. Run multiple battles at the same time if you need to.
