Description
THE THEME IS:
DEPRIVATION AND/OR ABUNDANCE
DEPRIVATION AND/OR ABUNDANCE
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls; I'm sure many of you have wished to work with someone new, especially someone well known and respected, or maybe just someone who's gotten your attention and appreciation of their work. Perhaps you aren't well know but would like to meet and collaborate with some people, show what you got? Are you just looking for something a little different? While not all of these can be promised, it would be nice to be able to do some of these, yes? I give you, McBacon Jam.
The idea and goal of McBacon jam is to give people a chance (and excuse) to team up with people they wouldn't normally team up with an give them an idea of what its like to work with them. Hopefully, this encourages less cliques and more willingness to diversify collaborations.
Here are the basics:
- This event will run from 1/21/2015 to 2/11/2015 (3 weeks because everyone been getting sick and McBacon loves you)
- I will announce a theme on the 21st; that is when your team can officially begin.
- Team sizes must be a minimum of 2 with a maximum of 4 (remember, this is about collaborations). Solo entries will not be accepted for this.
- You may be in only 1 team.
- You may submit some basic info about yourself so that others can get a better idea about you at a glance.
- Just to set the record once and for all, there IS NO APPLICATON OR APPLICATION PROCESS. all info is provided voluntarily and for the benefit of others.
- If you already have a team decided, be sure all members join said team.
- If you dont have a team, but want to join one, make a team with just you in it. if someone joins your team, make sure everyone in said team talks about it too.
If no one does join said team, I will be talking to everyone without a team and helping everyone get teamed up. - If you don't care one bit about who you're teamed up with, consider going into reserve. Being in reserve allows me to makes sure anyone that wants to be in a team can. plus, it grants you the best trophy in this event!
- Assuming this is a success, don't expect to team up with the exact same people every time. Each new jam means different team arrangements!
- If bizarre circumstances occur or if you're having some team issues, let me know and I will take care of things accordingly.
Badges!
Only 1 badge will be handed out, depending on the circumstances:
McBacon Jam Effort: 10 MS
- Given to people on a team who at least turns in something remotely playable and tries to meet the theme.
McBacon Jam Pioneer: 25 MS
- Given to people on a team that end up making something and meets the theme quite well (I expect this one to be the one handed out mostly)
McBacon Jam Reserve: 30 MS
- This award overrides the others and is given only to people who went the extra mile and put themselves in reserve, provided they still turn in something though.
Questions? Comments? Concerns? Speak up and post!

CloseOh, if any of you happen to be reserves, or happen to be free, and not named darkfox, would any of you be willing to work with rpg20xx?
I'm totally making a stat sheet like that for myself as well ( my MAP stat would probably be maxed lol ). Thanks Nivalcart! ^^

No problemo!
I only know how to work with RPG Maker VX and VX Ace, so I can't help there.
Hmm, I'm not getting Notifications for this event. Do I have to sign up as a team to get them?

Your stat sheet doesn't mention engine, either.

Nobody knows how to use 20XX yet, that's the point (not even I do). Just start pushing buttons do or die etc. etc. although it does use the same event scripting paradigm as any of the RPG Makers.

Oh, wait, is 20XX after VX Ace or before? I was under the impression it was like the Windows 98 of RPG Makers.
I have a question. Would we be allowed to commission people for specific things even if they're not in the team?
I'm thinking like simple portraits/faces to an artist (who is not in the team coz ive worked with them before).
Would that be legit?

author=IndraIn your case, I'd have to ask if you, housekeeping and said person(altogether) worked together before? If so, then I'm afraid not. If not, add them to your team. I don't care what financial deals are worked inside of teams, just as long as people stand to benefit more than they lose and no one feels like crap for it.

This is still in a very experimental state, so I'm not gonna shy away from playing around with odd circumstances and working with them.
No, I meant as NOT part of the team but a normal comission. ASIDE from our team members could we comission an artist for resources.
(also I'm the only one in the team who's worked with the artist if that influences anything)
Edit: Tho if I'm the only member who has worked with another before does that mean we can put them in the team anyway? I mean that'd be great but is it legit? :I

Considering im not being picky about how resources are being acquired at this time, Id have to just say go ahead. Depending on how this goes though, I may or may not permit it in future jams, but we'll see.
I'll just make this perfectly clear once and for all;
1)I don't care where your get your resources/scripts, be it purchased off a website, like here or RMW, use rips, or commission an outside person to do some stuff. Bear in mind that if something bad happens due to how you got them, I wont be jumping to your aid. Also, please give credit where it's due!
2) This event is about teaming up with people you haven't before, to see what working with them is like, and to see if youd want to work with them more in the future. While I cannot and will not promise any dream collabs, any that do arise as a result of this are generally a good thing.
3)Solo entries wont be accepted. Read #2 again if you aren't sure why.
4)If you want a more "normal" gamejam, devoid of the team rules I have now from yours truly, send me a PM saying something along the lines of you wanting root beer in the future.

So bacon is a team effort but root beer is a solo kind of thing? You learn something new every day.

look at my user name, let look at the name of this jam again. It's not a coincidence. root beer is more of a code word for the moment.

The engine(s) you can work in. That was part of the initial profile blurb.

I just didn't catch the joke; didn't mean to sound hostile or anything.
