Description

Halloween is here once more and it's time to make a game in a month!



Ever read a story that started out all happy and cute and sweet and then something happens that just twists it into the horror territory abruptly? Say, oh, a young, innocent girl makes friends with a fluffy magical creature who gives her magical powers but she slowly dies every time she uses them? Or, hey, best friends go on a picnic together, only for one of them to kill the other in a jealous rage over a boy?

Cute stuff can turn creepy very fast, and that's what the aim of this Halloween event is this year! Creating a cinnamon sweet premise with a terrible twist ending!

Let's go kill some cuties!



- You have one month to make the game, starting from 12:01am 1st of October until 12:01am 2nd November.
- Games must have a game page! Please make sure to have them done a week before the end date!
- Games must abide by the rules of the site.
- There must be at least 10 minutes of gameplay!
- Any resources and engine are fine. (May I point you towards the RMN Music Packs 1 and 2 for free to use music?)
- Resources cannot be made for this event until it starts.



- Create a game page for your game before the 26th.
- Upload your game to the page when it is accepted.
- Come to this page, click Submit in the heading and choose the download.



If you'd rather I don't stream your game after the event, do let me know via PM here or DM on Discord.

there's still a chance to fix and get accepted. >.<)b

So theoretically I can still upload a gamepage? Even though I didn't on the 26th? If yes I am actually tempted to do a late minute game

Edit: Sorry for the double post >.<

News of the week (1 day early):

Final test and last touches.
I still have to finish my game to see if my texts don't cut the window but it should be playable anyways. Also, I'll be careful about balancing: the beginning may look a little repetitive.
(Currently beaten boss 1 with lower stats than advised in half-hour but it's still possible to win)

Thanks to Deckiller for finding an error in my game. Download has been updated.
Cuties & Clues is now playable from start to finish :)

I still have a bit of testing to do before I upload the game, but I'm glad that I managed to make it before the deadline this time (unlike a few years ago when I released my entry in *gasp* December...)
Sadly I don't think I'll be able to finish on time. I could submit what I've done so far but it doesn't even get to the horror part, so.......... yeah. I was so confident I would have finished this time, but nope.


I hate school so much.

hello hello! I got a DnD game today, so I won't be able to finish the game today. But! I'm opting for a little sneak peak y'all can look at. Hopefully tomorrow I can make more progress. I don't want to like, compromise my vision but I also don't want to not get somehting out! So I guess just imagine my entry as a little "teaser" for when I finish up the game in the next two days.

After two weeks of hell - including a hard drive crash, a second hard drive scare, and plenty of other hurdles - I finally have something worth submitting.

This demo covers the first half of the game, including the first two areas and quite a bit of story. It's about 35-45 minutes of gameplay and 15 minutes of story.

The second part will be 1-2 hours long and conclude the story; it will be released in November.

Even though it's RTP baseline, I've poured a lot of effort into this game over the last two weeks. I hope it shows.

Of course, I had to struggle for hours trying to fix some major bugs right on the last day.

But I'm happy that Cuties & Clues is now available!

Looking forward to playing everyone else's entries as well.
Don't forget to submit to this page, guys!

The extra hour has been added, so go go go!
