RavenBlueIndigo 121 Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) Hey, guys! It's that time of year for spooooooky and scaaaaaaary stuff. I, myself, must admit that I've a thing for this small time of the year, and I thought we could all celebrate it by way of games, and so I bring all of you a contest to make a spooky, scary game : O.(Spooky Red Comic Sans) CONTEST RULES - Game must be at least a half hour in length.-Game must have some Halloween-related theme, like don't go makingsome lifesim with no spookiness or something, xD.-Keep it PG-13. Don't go making some hentai game or something. >_>-Credit must be put where due, but this goes without saying forgames in general, xD. I'm just looking for things to put here now.. CONTEST REWARDS I can't offer any great rewards, but, I will dictate the overall winneras winner in the topic here, and I will do a stream playthrough ofall the games in order from best to worst. ENJOY! HAVE FUN! (Spooky Red Comic Sans. Oooooooo~) Edited October 1, 2015 by Ghostface 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Crescent 474 Posted October 1, 2015 Sign me up for this! ^^ Just two quick questions... 1. Lighthearted but horror/halloween-themed games are allowed? Or the game should be serious and pretty horror one? 2. When is the starting and ending of the contest? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Chaosian 617 Posted October 1, 2015 Because there is no middle-ground between PG13 and pornography. C'mon, name a good horror movie that benefited from being PG13. Now count all the good horror movies that were butchered to be PG13. If the rate is anything less than 1:5, I'd be surprised. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RetroExcellent 369 Posted October 3, 2015 Heh, I was just wondering if this was going to happen. I am a bit out of practice, but maybe I can whip something up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nyapurgisnacht 152 Posted October 3, 2015 I'm down for being in a team if anyone wants help ^^ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Crescent 474 Posted October 7, 2015 I have two questions... -If I complete my game, then send it to you via a PM or make a thread and post a link here? -Repeating this question that imascribble asked, the deadline is 12 PM - but in what timezone? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavenBlueIndigo 121 Posted October 7, 2015 The timezone is EST. And, feel free to post them here. I will have strawpolls made for all the game provided multiple games are submitted and the winner will be judged through that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Loriesquare 203 Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Well I'll be trying to start now. I have about 20 days. XD I procrastinated for 10 days. >implying i wont procrastinate further I GAVE Y'ALL 10 MORE DAYS OF DEVELOPMENT. I WAS JUST TRYING TO GIVE YOU A CHANCE. > Just kidding. I'll probably end up finishing nothing again. And it becomes Procrastination 2, which has no relation to the previous game. I'll try, though. EDIT: Will we get user awards for this? :3 >implying i would get any Edited October 9, 2015 by Eien Nanashi 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Crescent 474 Posted October 9, 2015 A very little preview of my game, it's all a WIP as you can see... the designs are outdated and some things needs fixing - but the game's style will be like this. ^^ It's not that much spooky or horror, but it's just a lighthearted Halloween dungeon crawler for the most part. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavenBlueIndigo 121 Posted October 10, 2015 I like the look of that. . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RetroExcellent 369 Posted October 13, 2015 Just to check, this does not have to be an rpg right? My game has no combat in it, but I think you'll find it fits the theme nicely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavenBlueIndigo 121 Posted October 15, 2015 Nope, it can be whatever! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Loriesquare 203 Posted October 18, 2015 Well, yes, but... You can never have enough awards. Besides, I have no chance on this one right now. I haven't started on anything yet and it's been more than half a month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RetroExcellent 369 Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) So I've made exactly 3 maps for my game so far, the rest has been adjusting tiles, and making oh so many tasty events. I think this is going to turn out rather fun! Edit make that 7, it's going pretty quickly now. Also just because here is a screenie. Yes I know it is very dark, that is intentional and it is not always like that. Edited October 18, 2015 by Shaddow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RetroExcellent 369 Posted October 25, 2015 Sadly I'm going to have to withdraw from this contest. I just cannot complete this in time with everything I want to do, and I don't like releasing a product I am not proud of. Maybe next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
