Description
What is this?
This is a game making event where we partner up in order to create two games per partner!
TWO games?! Are you mad?!
I don't think so? Oh, wait, that was a rhetorical question, right?
Anyway, it's a pretty simple premise. You start a game and work on it for one week. At the end of that week all the games are pooled and then distributed semi-randomly to each other. Then everyone finishes the games they are given over the next week.
Basically, a big swaparoo~

As always, there's badges to consider~
Started in the Middle with You - 30MS - Received at the end of the event for those who started a game and had it completed.
Ended in the Middle with You - 30MS - Received at the end of the event for those who finished a game.
Meshing the Middle with You - 20MS - Given to the game that feels like a concerted effort to create a whole piece.
Mashed in the Middle with You - 20MS - Given to the game that is a mess of mashing together the elements.
Beyond the Middle, it's True - 50MS - Given to the overall best game of the lot, as judged by our panel of select cherry-pickers.

Rules
- Sign up below. Make sure that you're dedicated for the whole two weeks/both parts of the event.
- Games must be new and made only for this event.
- You may use any RM engine. Sorry, while it is a neat idea in theory to use any engine, most people who sign up might not have experience in those engines, limiting the ability to finish the games.
- If you only have access to a particular RM engine, please note that in the comment section so that I know to account for that when distributing the first half of the games.
- Also, make sure to include an RTP stand-alone version of the game (and include resources) when passing it over so that your partner is not looking for different files to make it work.
- When it comes time to submit, for the first half of the game upload the WIP to the event locker (accessed by Submit in the top corner).
- First halves of games must be in by the time shown under the Details section after you add your time offset in the settings of your account. The Date End reflects this and will be changed when the second halves are handed out.
- The second halves will be submitable by game page ONLY. Make a game page for your game whenever you like, just remember to update the information when the second creator comes into play.
- To keep time realistic, aim for each half to have a half-hour of play at the most. This will make an hour-long game, which is pretty decent for 2 weeks. You can go over this amount, but remember that the longer the game, the less chance there is to finish it.
- In the spirit of the event, don't be a back-seat driver to the second creators. They can take the game where they like - that's half the fun of the event. In fact, let's just say that you keep your fingers out of the game pie after it gets handed over. Make it something of a surprise, eh?

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

congrats!
Wow! Congrats everyone!
And thanks for choosing Bloody as one of the winners! :DDDDDDDDD I am super thrilled! ^_^ A huge thanks to Ocean for doing the second half and the amazing title screen and that super cool fog!
I am really glad Oblivion Quest tied with us, as it was my personal favorite of the bunch and a whole lot of oldschool fun with a neat storyline! ^_^
Again, major kudos to everyone! There were plenty of amazing games that came out of this!
