Pause Mode X for RPG Maker MV
A downloadable tool
What does this plugin do ?
This plugin adds a custom pause scene to your game, giving players a clean and accessible way to open the main menu and other key options using touch or mouse input. It’s especially useful for mobile platforms, where navigating traditional menus can be clunky.
When triggered, the pause scene halts the game — even during battles — making it ideal for both gameplay timeouts and quick breaks. Everything is handled in a single scene to streamline access and improve the overall experience.
Pause the Game
Optionally stop game time while the pause scene is active. Great for players who need a moment away without missing anything.
Restrict Access
Control when the pause scene can be used. Lock or unlock it based on in-game conditions for added flexibility.
Menu Override
Replace the default RPG Maker menu with this pause scene, so players can open it directly and interact through buttons instead of scrolling through traditional menus.
Unique Button Types
Return Button
Lets players close the pause scene and return to the game, whether using touch or keyboard.
Mute Button
Instantly toggle audio on or off. When muted, the button visually updates to show the state.
Common Event Buttons
Create fully custom buttons that run any common event — ideal for showing help screens, triggering settings, or adding your own custom actions.
