Help with Pixel Game Maker MV

[gameripper]

Hopefully maybe someone will have an answer to this problem

Try GAME RIPPER, works with several game engines, including Pixel Game Maker MV.

What's even more infuriating is that the png files are already there for the taking, now even encrypted in any weird format

Actually they are encrypted. Three variants are used, GR can handle the XOR method and the 16 bytes long key Twofish variant, but not the latest 32 bytes long variant.

I'm like calling out here for anyone that would help figure out how to get them sweet, sweet sprites off games made with this thing, eh.

GR normally saves the sheets as PNG, but it can also scan sheets and parse PGMMV jsons for animated sprites and save those as animated GIFs.
