Description

Summer, with fields of wheat and grain blowing in the gentle breeze. Warmth that sinks into the skin making days long and lazy, perfect for swimming and indulging in frozen treats.

Autumn, full of gusty breezes and warm afternoons. Turning paths to gold as leaves fall like a riotously coloured shower, leaving the trees bare of their foliage, stark against the sky.

Winter, with frozen evenings spent huddled around an open flame, telling tales of the past and future to loved ones, a decorated tree listening in from the corner, it's tiny lights twinkling between leaves of green.

Spring, bursting with new life as the long sleep ends and nature returns ten-fold to rejoice with explosions of colour as all kinds of new plants turn their faces up to catch the sweet drops of fresh rain.

The four seasons are wonderful times full of amazing moments and this event focuses on them. There will be a total of six of these events over the course of the next few years. Each of the first four events will have you focus on a different complete game based on a season you didn't do before, allowing you to collect all four of the seasonal badges. The fifth will be a game where you will use all four seasons in a game. The sixth will be a second-chance event where you can finish off games from the previous events in order to get the badges you missed out on during that time. Keep an eye out for these events if you want to nab every badge!


Your aim this time - to make a game that uses one of these seasons as the main inspiration. They can be represented in different ways - surviving the frozen wilds, a story set in autumn following the death of a character, a visual novel with spring colours as the palette... the use is up to you, as long as it's easy to tell which season has been referenced. And no, just having the name of a season in the title doesn't count!



Rules!
- You have one month in which to make the game.
- You may use any engine.
- You may use any resources you've used in the past, however, the game itself needs to be made within the month period. That is; if you made custom resources for a game in the past you may use those, however, you can't just take an old game and finish it off for the event.
- The games must have an accepted game page. The game page must be accepted before Friday the 11th of January.
- Event begins on Saturday the 15th of December and ends at Midnight, Sunday the 13th of January.
- Create a game based on a season. You must only use one season!
- You may not use a season that you have used in a previous Seasons of RMN event!


Rewards
Each person who took part will receive a badge worth 10 MS.
Each person who completed a game will receive a badge worth 75 MS, themed around the season they drew inspiration from.



To reiterate - the season you choose doesn't have to be the season the game is set in but it needs to be a large component of the game, and easily recognisable as such.

I did go through them on saturday. I'll probably go through them tonight. I... honestly thought it was Thursday for some reason. This heat is getting to me. But yeah, I'll go through them tonight. Or maybe just later today. No worries!


Libby is either a Slime Girld or a Selkie...both burn to a crisp real easy. (That or it's Libby's british heritage dual wielding kainabos.)

Almost done scrimping together something playable, just one more battle map and ending event to do before balance testing.

So, who has a gamepage? It doesn't look like a lot.
Yay! My game page is now finally up ^_^ It was very fun working with the project. :) Although the holidays have taken so much from me and there were some ups and downs during those times >.<, I'm still glad to be able to finish it somehow. Thank God. xD Hope everyone will enjoy it, and I wish the best for all who joined the event :D
We have a game page. We are mostly complete other than the battle system.
I'm, uh, not sure if I should be proud or worried that my submission was the first to show up on this page. Then again I had my time window shifted back 12 hours due to self-error so uhhhh yeah

There's no shame in having finished your game before others. It just means you were able to use all your available time properly to finish your project. That's a good thing! :D

Solitary demo is up! I added it as a second demo to the team I was already placed on, lol.
Woo made it in time, 11 minutes to spare and probably extremely buggy. Sorry to hear you two didn't finish but it seems like most people didn't this time. Now to sleep.

nice job!
Since the event is closed I can't update... but the gamepage has version 2.3 which corrects a few more bugs. It was a learning experience using 2k3... so many old quirks I forgot about.
Congratulations to everyone who was able to finish in time! WELL DONE GUYS! >u<

Sadly i wasn't able to finish... I hate college
Congrats everyone! (I have a new version of Ice Cream Island War 1.11 now that fixes minor or weird errors or a missing thing no spoils. So please download that version.)

Edit: 1.12 fixes a missed switch refresh that will stop completion of an event map.
