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!

Lobster Quest Deluxe is now even deluxer!
Prove it.


Fewer lines are cut off and more events actually event.

I have no regrets searching every single item in that castle.


This gives me great joy.

Everyone, stop what you're doing. You need to take a moment to appreciate this.

Truly the greatest treasure in the Lobster King's vault.

I can't source any of the quotes, sadly, but they're most likely random shit from Something Awful.

@psy: it was because i didn't bundle it with some necessary files contained in the installer. The new download takes care of that luckily. All cutscene events are in the upper left corner of every map. There are 3. Because the event is all about the 3.

I got nauseous staring at the computer and hammering on this for long enough to poop out a game you guys please play it. It's called Rufus, Lansbury & Peru and it takes about five minutes to play. Save your game once you've gathered all 9 pieces of evidence and you can try every combination until you discover the TRUE ENDING (which is hinted at by reading objects around the house). Enjoy~

oops the true ending had a bug, I fixed the download.
also oops: because I coded events w/ Erase Event loading your game will break your game and you will lose your entire 3 minutes of playtime

Frogge:
I... Don't even know what to say, man. xD

Tevak:
This is very impressive for a 3-hour game! I was a bit confused as to why "basic attack" was listed among skills and the difference between "attack" and "attacks" but it seems well-made. The battles lag hard, though, and unfortunately I can't really finish it as a result.

PentagonBuddy:
I got a kick out of it! I think I am insanely lucky as I never get a bad match up, but it was cute!

unity:
I didn't know you had it in you... >:D

Aside from stale memes, I got a nice chuckle out of everything.

RiderX:
Where do you find these awesome 16-bit tracks? I like what you did with the battles here! Poor Alex never gets over his cough, does he?

Will get to more soon.

Versalia:
This was a work of brilliance. Also...

You have good taste.


iddalai:
Interesting... I'm perplexed by the message this game could potentially signify but it comes off as very creative.

The second map doesn't seem to have a boss or any way to progress.

Sooz:
This was beautiful. Simple as that.

ethanz:
This was charming and I like the ideas presented with the battle system. Fledge seems to be a lot more useful than anything, though.

Coincidentally, Sooz and Versalia both made games where you play as dogs who can search for things.

I just played Uni's and WOW, that was amazing! I've been playing it for so long, I could put it down and the combat was so fun and engaging! Also the battle music was awesome and the plot twist, incredible and funny! :D

Okay, just played Lobster Quest, it was really fun, EVERYTHING has a description, and there are many hidden ones too! It was really fun checking everything and I like the short, yet effective plot. :D

Three's a crowd was hard, but in the end I beat it. It's a bit dark and sad and I'm not sure you can beat it without your friends dying which makes me sad... It's well made though and follows the super challenge probably! :D

Next up... Lobster Quest, Three's a crowd and RLP! :D

Wow, all these sound awesome!
That was a lot harder than I thought it would be. I had NO TIME to do anything. I should have gone sillier and smaller. BUT, it is what it is. Should be a fun few minutes to play haha. I was right around 3 hours. Not sure JUST how long it took.

Using RPG Maker 2000 again made me realize just how much better VX Ace is.

On my entry, I made the songs prior to making the game. I reserve the right to possibly use the songs for another game one day if I feel the need.

Damn I'm tired. I should sleep.

I'm hoping to start mine tomorrow!

Nothing reveals Humanity so well as the games it plays. A game of betrayal, where the most suspicious person is brutally murdered? How savage.

Unless you live in -10 GMT, tomorrow the event's already finished...
Done.


In b4 it crashes.

Tripple Trinity Trouble is up.
Should be ok, there is a strange resolution thing which it does within Win 10, a solution is to use a windowed mode
I guess I managed to include all super challenge rules but 3 scripts and pictures.
Gonna have fun playing yours in the evening.

Credits: Graphics and music.
Edit: Its embarrassing to have a typo in game's name. That it means to toddle in Dutch, doesn't make it any better.
Okay, fixed an error. Left a save (file 3) for those who played and got to the cutscene but had it crash on 'em.


Edit: lololololol someone's a doofus and forgot to put it up properly

Ok, resubmitted with three less pees and It should be RTP independent now.
