There has not been a contest for RPG Maker in at least six months. So I am proposing a Halloween contest for the RPG Maker XP. You will have nearly 60 days from this point. I hope that more people will participate with this considering the last contest.
REQUIREMENTS
- The main player character (protagonist) of the game must use an enemy sprite from the RTP (it is Halloween after all) (this does not mean the main character has to be evil)
- gameplay must be between 25-60 minutes long.
- The game must be created for this contest, you cannot submit any pre existing games
- The game cannot be based on another game, movie or franchise (examples: Star Trek, LoTR, Family Guy, Sin City)
- You may use original content, but it must be original content made for this contest
- Use an original story line (it can be a cliche'd storyline, just do not blatantly rip one off)
- Must be made in RPG Maker XP
- If you are a judge, you cannot participate
SCRIPTING RULES
- You can only use scripts for this game.
- They cannot use scripts that you have used for your other games
- You cannot use anyone else's scripts.
GRAPHIC RULES
- You can either use RTP graphics (the ones that came with the RPG Maker XP) or use graphics created exclusively for this contest.
- You cannot use any graphic / tileset / sprite / battler generators (this is a contest of your skills, not the generator's).
If you refuse any of these rules, your entry will be disqualified
DEADLINE
- Quests / games must be submitted before October 31st
