Description
The resource creation event you've all been waiting for!
Make monster graphics from my 7 year old's crayon designs
Make monster graphics from my 7 year old's crayon designs
On RMN's official(ly bad) twitter @rpgmaker, I posted some pictures I took of my son's monster designs. @plsvotetuckie then took one of those designs and made a pixel art version!
An idea was born.
In this short event we will:
- Create pixel art version of these monster designs for use in RPG Maker
- Try to decipher my son's horrible writing
- Come up with descriptions and movesets for these monsters
- (Optionally) Create a short battle demo
- Submit them all to this event page
I will post the 6 designs below, along with a link to a higher resolution version. The deadline is December 4th.
Submit your entries using the toolbar in the upper right, and then make a post showing them off in the comments below!
Coulddas
(or Coulddus or Coyldday (sometimes his Ys look like Ss))
High-res version
Are those arms? Feet? Spikes? Is that his mouth, or some mouth-tentacles, or maybe tusks? Is he wearing an eyepatch?
Balbo
(or Backbe or Baelbe)
High-res version
Is he a ghost? Is that a giant tail or a gargantuan arm? He looks mean.
Watewack
(or Wutewalk or Watowark)
High-res version
Wings, perhaps? Or is he a really short caterpillar and that's a floating blade or whip in front of him? Kinda cute!
Netsop
(or Netstop or Ivetslop)
High-res version
Claws or wings? So tall, majestic and menacing!
Peelc
(or Peek or Pedl)
High-res version
His friendly face belies his terrible nature...
Yoidu Keeprel
(or Yoida Keepall?)
High-res version
The event's mascot. Of course.
BONUS!
These were found in my son's room after I cleaned it the other day. Feel free to make enemies out of them, as well! Maybe I will make a bonus achievement, too...
a'Afte
(and then a bunch of sight words...)
High-res version
A three eyed turtle, maybe?
Beenboo
(or Bee Boon?)
High-res version
A tall ghostly figure with a crooked nose, methinks.
If you submit at least one monster, you will be deemed a participant and receive a Yoidu achievement worth 5ms. If you submit all six monsters, you will receive an additional Netsop achievement worth 10ms.
Participants who submit a battle demo will receive a Balbo achievement worth 5ms.
The fan-favourite (as determined by voting after the event) will win the Coulddas achievement worth 20ms.
Unleash your inner-7-year-old and make some monsters!
~~~~~~
update December 15th:
ULTRA BONUS ROUND!!
..:: Pinchy ::..
high-res version
Here is a monster my 4yo designed. He told me he has "pinchy arms". I'll call him Pinchy. (We are a family of RPG makers, apparently).
Anyone who designs a monster from him by Monday will get the special "Pinchy" achievement.

In a world of Vooid, color is everything. The white energies, known as "llayck" to the Vooid's inhabinants, surrounds and contains blackness, the mixture of all, and destroys it until only one color remains. These colors amplify and emphasize attributes of the creatures of this world, the Vooidlings. However, the creatures detailed below are not true Voidlings, for they are dominated by Llayck. They forever seek to absorb color and reduce it to white, for the creation of more monstrosities that take on these curiously aberrant forms. If you come across one, be sure to destroy or absorb it's color, as that's the source of it's powers.
COULDAS (TENTACLASS)
This tentacular monstrosity is tipped in red, giving it minimal physical combat prowess. It is easy to destroy for Llayck residue, but do not underestimate it. Many a careless Vooidlings have been crushed or pierced by those tentacles, and it's eye has an unknown power.
BALBO (BEAKARMS)
The blade, fist, and eye of this creature are all dangerous weapons, while it's beak offers minimal physical defense, and it's wrists of orange pierce armor; Enough that most Vooidlings militia cannot harm it and their armor is pierced, thus allowing it to massacre Vooidling villages, collecting more color. They are hated by all Vooidling kind and are beserking creatures of Llayck.
WATEWACK (BUZZINGTON)
This unique creature is brimming with dexterous yellow, making it the first to attack with magic. If an organize war against the Vooidlings would ever occur, these would be suicide bombers, dropping into deep blue (heavily armored) territory and annihilating the front line with it's purple magic. Fortunately, all creatures of Llayck are mindless scum so no scenario is possible.
NETSOP (CHROMAXIMUM)
A dangerous creature, long lived with a long history of collection and creaion of Llaycking creatures. It's cyan eyes pierce through a mages's defense, while the claw dispatches of any annoyance around it. It's yellow wing allows flight, making it a deadly foe for even the most trained Vooidling.

Wow I really like how everyone's interpretation of a child's drawing is so different from one and another! 〃＾▽＾〃
I'm giving this a shot despite me not being amazing in this sort of thing ^^;
Coulddas
Coulddas composes off several cadavers hidden and stuffed away in a robot suit. Yet over time the outside has slowly rusted away. Using the energy powered by the vengeful souls of the people that have perished, Coulddas hunts down others to add to his collection of carcasses to make him even stronger.
He doesn't inflict a lot of damage yet since there are so many bodies all inflicting damage at once his overall inflicting damage becomes immense. But this can also be his weakness as with many souls being inside you there lacks any unity which leads to low accuracy at times.
Peelc
To say that a Peelc can be deceiving is an understatement. He often has a welcoming face, lovely hospitality and yet by the end of the encounter he can make the trip to hell sound like a vacation. However, if you see through his tricks it won't be as inviting or as...friendly...
When it comes to combat a Peelc isn't as strong at it seems. He mostly decreases your attack by playing mind games on you. With a swift body a Peelc tends to avoid attacks often. See through his lies and once the effect wears off it'll be easier to beat him.
Balbo
Long ago the poor Neri had a mine of his own, until the parasite Balbo infected him. Neri used to lead people to the afterlife and guide them. However Balbo pierced the side of Neri's head and controlled Neri from there on. Balbo uses Neri's mystical powers to kill those that are the most happy; to use their joy to make him experience it whilst trapping the crestfallen spirits in Neri's blade.
Balbo has a massive advantage with controlling such a skilled and knowledgable swordsman like Neri yet without the body Balbo is helpless. It may be hard to get an accurate hit of Balbo himself(maybe 8% chance?) but once you managed to damage its achilles heel, you've won.
Wow this actually ended up being quite long ._.
Oh well what can you do haha... ^▽^;

Okay, did the extra monsters! :DDDD
Bee13oot
Born in the dream world, Bee13oot casts helpful boons on its allies and has dark, troubled thoughts thanks to absorbing one too many nightmares. When it talks, all you can hear are the voices of long forgotten memories, playing back in twisted melodies.
a'Afteallahahaw
a'Afteallahahaw looks like some warped fleshy UFO with eyes, mouths, and a giant beak where it eats. Monsterologists aren't quite sure what to make of it except that it is very deadly, blasting about with rays that damage and cause various nasty status ailments and chomping heroes with that giant beak.
Still working on the gameplay parts! Hope to have something to show for that soon ^_^

Thanks for the compliments, guys. I guess what matters most when you're a complete novice is that you always try.
Here's another I made:

IDK why you say you're not ready for this. Your dude looks fine to me.
It's really cool and inspiring to see all of these different art styles. Keep up the good work, yo!
Welp, I decided to give this a shot anyway, even though I'm not ready for this kind of thing at all.
Going to put this hideous pixel creation of mine in a spoiler (you can thank me later).

Okay, here's my first batch of critters.
Yoida, Plucky Robot Minion
A service bot built by Balbo Technologies to transport materials, Yoida uses its crystal electromagnet "ears" to hover. Its antennae allow it to tap into electric currents, giving it a number of electricity-based attacks and limited telepathy, which it uses to scan enemy weaknesses.
Yoida escaped from Balbo Technologies after stumbling upon their nefarious plans; it was last seen traveling with Al Afte.
Al Afte, Alien Dinosaur
A green dinosaur who speaks in an alien language and carries a mysterious egg-like artifact. Al Afte's greatest priority is protecting the artifact, and he will attack anyone who he perceives to be trying to steal it. Al Afte can attack by bodyslamming or tail whipping his opponent, and he can also cast spells by channeling the artifact.
Beel Bool, Combat Marionette
A prototype robot soldier with detachable arms and a long nose designed to sniff out intruders. Beel Bool has a variety of arms it can swap out in order to complete a variety of tasks, including a punching glove, a plasma cannon, a short blade, and more.

Princess Beeboon the bloodthirsty
She is so thrilled by battle that she will spend all her energy on healing the damages to both sides, never wanting the fight to end.
a'Afte
a'Afte will not react to anything you do, just freeze and stare past you. Blast him with fireballs, punch him, dance naked for forty regrettable minutes. It won't make a difference. He'll only scream internally for you to leave him alone.

Tentacle Coulddas best Coulddas.
Wow, looks super cool, Gredge! I'll have to give it a playthrough, perhaps tonight ^_^
I've got a tiny game also in the works for this. I don't have a name yet, but I'm trying to make it feel very like what a 7-year-old might make XD

Archstone, my battle demo/minigame has been released!
* All character skills are crucial to survive. There are no "Fire I, Fire II. etc" skills. All damage skills do something other than straight-forward damage.
* No items, no leveling up, just combat against all of the original monsters from this event.
* Bosses can change the rules of combat.
* It's short.
* All original game graphics, tilesets, icons, (cheap) animations, etc.
* A whopping 8 whole colors.
* You can actually control Gredge, and experience the joys of having him die on you in combat.
* Losing does not end the game. Mostly.
* Makes a good game to play while waiting for Craze to release his game.
Tips:
* All attacks are set to 100% hit, unless a debuff affects it.
* Poison is helpful, don't ignore it. Damage skills deal damage on top of having a chance to apply a status effect.
* If a character suddenly loses the ability to attack or use a Magic/Special skill, check to see if another menu command opened up for that character.
* Marle is primarily your magic damage-dealer.
* Gredge is primarily your healer.
* The third character is primarily your tank.
https://rpgmaker.net/content/events/kidsdesign/files/Archstone.exe
Hope you all enjoy it! May make a game page for it in the future.

I'm pretty sure the turtle has four eyes, not three (also the high-res link doesn't work, so I raided your locker and found a working one)

Second guy is CLEARLY Beer Boo, the ghost who loves brewskis.
BONUS!
These were found in my son's room after I cleaned it the other day. Feel free to make enemies out of them, as well! Maybe I will make a bonus achievement, too...
a'Afte
(and then a bunch of sight words...)
High-res version
A three eyed turtle, maybe?
Beenboo
(or Bee Boon?)

A tall ghostly figure with a crooked nose, methinks.

Coulddas battle graphic.
A sample of the battle screen.
It's almost done! Maybe two more days. I have two more enemies to implement. I made custom graphics for everything, and turned this project into somewhat of a tiny game where you walk around a small area and battle the monsters. The game boasts a whopping EIGHT WHOLE COLORS.
Netslop is a boss that has a rather... unique battle mechanic. I won't surprise it for those who want to play it (I'll post it later in this topic), but it changes the skills the players have to use in order to fight him. He's one of the more unique enemies.
Balbo is also implemented as a boss: he likes to strange people while wailing on the party. This strangling, of course, harms the character he grabs, but the player grabbed can still help his party out by jabbing Balbo in the eyes, or thrashing around. The player will have to juggle between taking damage and weakening Balbo so he can be defeated. Simply put, Balbo hits too hard to face head on, but he can be significantly weakened throughout the fight.
I've finished implementing the PC's skill sets (a little more refining is all), and all of the skills will be crucial to battle. Certain spells will affect enemies different. Gredge's Ice Tomb, for lesser enemies (Watewack and Youidu Keeprel), will freeze them for an extra turn. Against Netslop, however, the Ice Tomb won't freeze Netslop, but will weaken him, hardening his slime and making him more fragile to physical attacks.
All in all I really enjoy fighting these guys and I think you all will enjoy it as well.
