RMN is having it's 8th birthday and as such we're having an event. Because God forbid we forget this year like we did the last two, right? Right!

And what's better than a short game making competition? Not much!

So grab your engine of choice and get ready to rumba!

What we doing?

We're makin' gam! In eight hours! Woo!

Basically, over this weekend we will be creating a short game based on the theme of self-insert/cameos within eight hours. That is, you have a total of eight hours over the course of the weekend, broken up however you like, to make a game in.

During the event we recommend that people make use of the RMN IRC chatroom in order to talk about what they're doing and give feedback, bounce ideas and just have fun.

This is a birthday event and as such it's social!

At the end of the weekend we show off the games we made and give feedback. The downloads will be compiled in to one game project which will also be released not long after - as such you won't need to create game pages for your games.


Yes, there's a theme. It's pretty simple, too!

Cameos/Self-inserts: The main cast of the game need to consist of either yourself, people you know in real life or people you know on the internet. This means you could create a true Craze vs LockeZ game if you desire, or throw yourself and a group of friends into a fantasy world of your creation.

Whatever you like, how ever silly you desire~ As long as it fits this theme it will count.


- Create a game within 8 hours over the course of the weekend of the 6th/7th of June.
- Game must abide by the site rules of game submissions (thus no pornography, hate speech and such).
- Game must fit the theme provided above.
- Upload to either your locker or a hosting site, then submit to the event page. (If you use a hosting site, put the link in the comments and make sure you use large text/bold in order for it to stand out.)
- The game may be made on any engine.
- Game should be complete and stand-alone, with all necessary files included.



There are three badges available.
- Gammak Cak (25 MS), which will be received if a game that fits the criteria is submitted.
- Feedback Balloon (15 MS), which will be received for giving feedback over the course of the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
- Gabby Gift (10 MS), for taking part in the chat sessions over the weekend.


If you have any questions or queries, ask here. We'll be operating on the honour system as there is no real way to determine if people are keeping time or not. Trust is the name of the game. Fun is the way we roll.
