Description

Hello one and all and welcome to RMN's 9th (official ;p ) birthday! Woo!





Our beloved site is now (over) 9 years old - that's practically ancient in internet years! So let's get together and celebrate in the best way we know how!

Making games! :DDD


A bit over a week or so ago a topic was put up with a bunch of event ideas for the community to pick from. There were a few long-runners who seemed likely to win, a really good idea that Liberty will be stealing appropriating for a future event and a dark horse coming up from behind to steal the win.

There was drama, conflict, confusion - just a normal day on the site, really, but we eventually got there and this is it. Your chosen event.




The event in question is quite simple.

3 hours.

3 maps.

3 characters.


You start over the coming weekend, make your game and at the end, share what you have made with the community! It's easy as 1, 2, 3!




The rules are as follows:
- Event starts at midnight GMT on Friday (please adjust your site time to your timezone so that the event page will tell you the start/end times properly).
- You have 3 hours over the course of the weekend to completely make the game. That means 3 hours of development, folks, not a 3 hour long game!
- You must only have 3 whole characters in the game. This includes Player Characters or NPCs. 3 total. For example: you can have a Warrior, Princess and King; or Warrior, Black Mage, White Mage. That part is up to you.
- You may only have 3 maps total.
- All games must be added to the event page by the end of the event (Sunday Midnight GMT)
- Play games over Monday (which is actually the birthday date oops but let's celebrate then by sharing each others' games! :DDD )

!!!SUPER CHALLENGE!!!
If you feel like 333 is too easy, how about completing this Super Challenge? You will get a special badge~!
- 3 different monsters only
- 3 different skills only
- 3 different items only
- 3 different weapons only
- 3 different armours only
- 3 of these major challenges: 3 Message Boxes, 3 Pictures, 3 Scripts, 3 Sound Effects, 3 Window Skins, 3 Musical Tunes, 3 Word Title, 3 Battles, 3x3 Map Size (if not RM, 99x99 pixels works too)

(Note that for this challenge to have been met you must have 3 of these things - it won't count if you only have, say, 2 monsters in the game or only 1 item. There MUST be 3.)





There are two achievements up for grabs!

P-P-PARTY ANIMAL for participating and getting into the spirit of the birthday.
SUPER PARTY ANIMAL for completing the Super Challenge.

I had fun with my gam and so far the bugs i've heard about are hilarious rather than game-breaking so they can stay

Man just make a thing and probably SOMEONE will like it, and if nobody does, who cares, it was 3 hours of your life and you were probably gonna spend that much this week on watching TV or peeing or something.


If you're peeing for three hours, I think maybe you should stop making games and go see a doctor.

I was being facetious, in case I wasn't clear about it.
How do I update the download to my game? I've got a fixed version that isn't buggy.

I haven't actually done it, but I assume you'd click the Manage button in the top right corner, delete your entree, and then resubmit. ...You may want to wait for Liberty's response on this in case I'm wrong tho XD

They told me I was mad when I said I was going to create a spidertable. Who’s laughing now!!!

Yeah, me too. I reuploaded and haven't heard another peep.

Depends what you mean by 'work' haha. I got it running but it looks like you're missing some file Dimensional Rift (panorama in third map?) but nothing seems to happen on that map anyway. Also I think you can just upload the project file with bundled RTP rather than the installer?

Uploaded my game: Three's a Crowd.

I did the super challenge. In addition to the required ones, I did the 3 message boxes, 3 battles, 3X3 tile maps (though it may not look like it in game), and a 3 word title (though I don't know if you count a contraction as one word, so I did a fourth one just to be safe).

So... yeah. Hope you enjoy it.
Well, you can write it as "Three is Crowd". SO YOU'RE WRONK! IT'S FOUR, THE FORBIDDEN NUMBER!

Feel my cucumber of despair!

That hopefully it runs and you can play it to the end. :C

Wait what, what do you mean nothing happens? You don't fight the guys? There's an autostart event in every map. Jesus christ i hate when things don't work.

Yeah, i reuploaded the game, this time with the RTP, could you maybe try again? :P

I don't know why i'm so flustered about the game not working since it's crap anyway but i'd like it if it did.


EDIT: Ok i tried it out on two of my pc's without rpg maker 2003 and i could play it to the end, so hopefully this time everything is ok.

That's what you do actually.

Also, she did mention that we could upload fixes to our submissions. I don't know what extent is acceptable, though, since as you may have noticed I reuploaded a version that fixes the broken skills and makes minor adjustments to make the boss beatable.

I'm playing all of your games, but will post my impressions after the event ends so i make sure i got all of them. There's a lot of greatness almost as much as there is hilarious shittyness. Gotta say that i feel relieved.

Well uh I got this when straight up running the game executable, not sure what's with that.

Playing in the editor, I got to the same point as before, but looking now at the last map, I don't see any autostart/parallel events :/

Aight, so, I have 3 normal items, 3 armors and 3 weapons. Does this all count as 9 items? Because you aren't equipped with them at the start but you have them in your inventory.

Prove it.
It was pretty damn deluxe before. I have no regrets searching every single item in that castle.

DONE. I present to you...Magical Star Dome!
I divided my time up for this one. This was interesting!
-First 45 minutes was converting graphics from Happup
-The remaining fifteen let me make the skills and items and stuff
-Took the next hour to write dialogue
-Twenty minutes to make quick battles
-Forty minutes testing and editing.

Tadaaaa!! It uses all the requirements from the Super Challenge. Need that badge, yo! Three battles, three-by-three map, three tunes and a three-word title.

I won't be here on Monday to play games (I'm headed to Seattle for a musical-award-thingy) but let me know how everything goes! (And if you liked the game.) This was a ton of fun. Happy b-day RMN!
