Designed for retro-inspired RPGs and action-adventures, this Classic RPG Password System delivers a clean, reliable, and expandable way to store player progress using alphanumeric codes. Built to recreate the feel of 8-bit and 16-bit classics, this system lets developers offer a nostalgic “Continue” experience without save files — fully modular, easily customizable, and ready for production.

“Automatic generation, clean validation, and a classic RPG feel — all in one modular password system.”

Core Features

Automatic Password Generation Each time the player completes a level, the system automatically generates the correct password for that level and stores it in a global structure.

Instant Password Display A dedicated Show Password scene displays the code cleanly for the player, using a dynamic text object and optional UI decorations.

Reliable Password Verification Players enter a code in the Enter Password scene, and the system validates it directly against the global PasswordList, loading the appropriate level.

Fully Scalable The same system supports 3 levels… or 300. Add new entries in seconds.

Bring authentic retro progression to your project with this robust, modern-ready password engine.

Interaction & Features

Automatic Level Passwords

Each level completion triggers a direct lookup: PasswordToShow = PasswordList["L" + ToString(CurrentLevel)]

No manual typing, no mistakes, no missing levels.

Show Password Scene

A clean screen that displays: • Current level • Generated password • Your custom message (“WRITE THIS CODE!”) • Option to continue or return to title

Ideal for retro aesthetics.

Enter Password Scene

Players type characters (A–Z, 0–9, -, _) through your UI. Upon confirming, the system reads the input:

EnteredPassword = InputPassword   LookupKey = "L" + EnteredPassword 

If found → loads the correct level. If not → shows “Invalid Password” without breaking the flow.

Robust Lookup Logic

The core verification system:

  • Builds dynamic keys (L1, L2, L3, etc.)

  • Safely checks for existence

  • Prevents crashes, duplicates or empty reads

  • Displays fallback text (“N/A”) if a level doesn’t have a stored password

Modular Scene Groups

The system is organized into logical event groups:

  • Init Password List

  • Generate Password

  • Display Password

  • Read User Input

  • Validate

  • Load Level

Each group is documented and easy to expand.

Developer Benefits

⚙️ Modular & Ready-to-Integrate

Copy-paste the event groups directly into your game. Variable names are clear, consistent, and production-friendly.

Dynamic key creation ensures zero conflict between levels. If a level has no entry, the system safely handles it.

To add more levels:

  1. Extend PasswordList

  2. Add new mapping (e.g., PasswordList.L4 = "DF2B")

  3. You're done

Supports dozens or hundreds of levels without extra logic.

🧩 Great for Many Game Types

This password system fits perfectly in: • Action RPGs • Platformers • Adventure games • Dungeon crawlers • Metroidvania-style games
