BEing added as part of a team disables the ability to register individually, which is problematic. I had to delete myslef from MaMA whne attemting order to create my own page,; someone please add me back to it. (Of the two possibilities My Map Madness idea is the clerer of the towo, so it's likely to be the one I do.)
Good luck everynyan ^^~

i've been wanting to play horror games for a while now, assuming im not on elsword, i'll be sure to check and try some of these games~! when sanae isn't home, she secretly gets scared, auau
You could probably check out the last Hallows Eve event (last years). It had a few scary games in there. ^.^
i hope everyone has fun with this : D
So, who here is going for actual scary and who here's going for parody?
I'm trying my hand at scary. We'll see how it goes.
I'm making a game with a sweet team! We're currently working on art and story...
Ours is gonna' be actually scary. And very, very different for an RMXP game. You'll see ;)

We're all British. Things will not be judged equally.

I will judge mainly by sheep-points. If your game has no sheep, insta-zero.




I have come to claim victory.

I just can't help myself!
Well, got my brother interested in my game so I might just get to use his computer for longer than a few hours ever couple of days now. Lol (my comp is evil and broken).

Exterior mapping is done! All I need is to pile together some screenshots and I can open a game thread! Hopefully this entry does better than the one I made last year!

Good luck everybody!

I'm going for an odd combination of sweet and scary. Which I hope will turn out well...

Theme is very broad, I'm making a horror game based on a real-life crime. It's neither a parody nor scary. Just... well, unpleasant, I think.
Horror is also associated with disgust so, it definitely doesn't have to be scary at all, just...unsettling perhaps <_<;
will i have to put sheep in my game now D:

update: okay

What about "scarody"?
I'm going for a "scary" game. but since I'm basing it on a kids story... well, let's see how it goes.

Also, since this is my first "full project", I realized some things:
a) My OCD is a crime when I make sprites.... seriously
2) There seems to be "Phases" as a beginner sprites (or at least me). First, it doesn't look THAT bad (with 1400% zoom), next after adding details, it looks way better (still 1400), suddenly I unzoom an MOTHEROFGADH WHAT DID I MAKE!!!!

Yeah, not helping my self-esteem....
