Description

Welcome to RMN's 14th birthday! This year we've got a very simple event planned:


Make a game in just 14 hours!




'Oh, is that all?', I can hear you say. No! This year we have an additional challenge!



This game should include one (or all!) of the following:

- The phrase "Happy Birthday, you filthy animal!"
- Your current favourite song
- A fish trying to hitch-hike to Alaska
- A militaristic bird
- A philosophy major who talks in 13375P34K
- The phrase "I will finish making a game!"
- The phrase "I will not beg RMN for pizza."
- The world's unluckiest person
- RMN Boba Challenge
- An old man complaining about something ridiculous
- Three different memes
- A missing present
- Too many butterflies
- A childish rap battle
- A talking birthday cake
- The Happy Birthday song sung incorrectly
- 14 of something to find/collect
- Spinach



RULES
- Game must be started on or after the 5th of June, 2021 and made over the course of that week.
- Time spent making the game must be 14 hours or under, over the course of the week.
- Team-ups have 14 hours total to make the game in.
- Game must include at least one of the above-mentioned prompts.
- No need for a game page for this event.
- Any engine, any assets. If you intend to make graphics for the game, wait until the start date, though planning on paper outside the engine is allowed.
- You may edit images and music outside of the 14 hours total however you may only do so during the event timeline (the week that the event runs). (Or not, if you prefer to challenge yourself!)
- Be as silly or as serious as you like, as long as it falls within the rules of the site.
- At least 5 minutes of playtime is required!
- Obvious troll games will be thrown out with the trash!


PRIZES

I'm also a big fan and user of midi music but I do my best to avoid copyrighted sources.
Craze

I just used a midi of Build Me Up Buttercup, which hopefully is fine for whoever streams these to not get a copyright strike.


I'll save everyone who resides in the United States the trouble I went through by posting this here. Include the following in your non-commercial project(s).

Copyright Disclaimer under Section 107 of the copyright act 1976, allowance is made for fair use for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, scholarship, and research. Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favour of fair use.
Pretty much, if you talk over the song you can call it a transformative work. Also, nothing says you can't edit the song in some way or other if you like/need.

Unfortunately, some people are very protective of their music and will still argue on youtube for you to either remove the song completely (mute it) or give them any money made on the video (jeez).

You're not likely to get a strike for such, but a copyright claim which is basically them demonetizing the video.
I don't think I'm gonna make it guys. If it was next week maybe, but this week my hands are just too tied with work.
3 hours in: First successful compilation

I'm far behind schedule because I experimented too mush on image editing with GIMP. At least all required assets are ready to use.
Welp, I underestimated how much work I had and how little free time I could use. I'm sorry but I have quit the event. Good luck to everyone though!
Upload to RMN successful! I still have three hours to go in case someone finds a game-breaking bug or something like that. Enjoy the game!

Update: Thanks to some feedback from the RMN discord, version 1.1 is up! And features the following changes:
- Dark Lily now takes 15 hits instead of 20.
- Dark Lily's attacks are now telegraphed.
- The HUD is easier to see in dark environments.
- Changed the volume of some sound effects.
- Changed the ground tiles in Hell.
10 hours in: First minimum viable product. Very rough, but it's a game !!!
OKAY!! GIFT COLLECTING SIMULATOR 20XX IS DONE, LETS GOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

I qualified for the "A missing present" prompt 14 times by making the 14 things that needed to be collected all presents. This means i have 14 things off the prompt list by technicality. Awesome.

EDIT: UPDATE UPDATE
- merged X with Shift's gift count. now shift does nothing
- you can check for the gifts you're missing or look at the ones you have
- ending picture. i couldn't put as much effort into Drawing It
Ugh . . . event headache . . . I'm starting to hate this skill . . .

What are you using, EFFERVESECNTWARE? If it's Ace and up, you should be able to have skills on equipment a lot easier than that mess of eventing!

Submitted "Maksim's Surprise Birthday Party" right now... during my own birthday!

The project is super-small (below 4 Mb) and works like a charm even if it is rather basic.

There's something you'd find strange, but it's because of my low level in art:
When Maksim kisses Florian at the end of the game, they both move awkwardly to each other and Maksim smacks Florian... two feet before his face!

Sorry, but I think I'll have to back out of this event. I put on too much work onto myself and there's no way I can finish the rest of my game in 10 hours and 5 days. Good fodder for my compilation game though.
14 hours in: Game done, still rough, lack some features I initially planned.

Inclusions:
- The phrase "Happy Birthday, you filthy animal!"
- A militaristic bird
- One meme and one reference to a famous plane (would at best count as 2 memes)
- Too many butterflies
- At least 5 minutes of playtime (if you git gud !)

I'm using RMMZ.

I'm not sure if it's possible because of the conditional branch related to Rosé's voice . . . I was able to use conditional branches in another way to make the parallel event I posted before less headache-inducing, though.

Effervescent Fantasy™ - 14th RMN Birthday
I'm sorry but we don't allow sexual games like that on the site. Whilst I appreciate that you wanted to take part, the game still needs to abide by the rules of the site, meaning that sexual content for the sake of sexual content isn't allowed. If you can term your game as hentai-like, then it doesn't have a place here, and having played what you put up, that is certainly what your game is.

I'm new to the scene and I'm still learning how to use the engine. The original project was toned down and I thought it was okay to post here because I removed the sex conveyed via SE and changed it to only being implied.

What else should be changed or removed?
