Description
YOU ALL HAVE FALLEN PREY TO MY EVIL PLANS AGAIN! Everyone has TWO weeks (and some change) to make a short game using not one, but TWO randomly given theme elements from THIS POST!
You will get one randomly selected image, as well as one randomly selected word to implement into your game in some way!
SIGNUPS WILL CLOSE ON 5/3 4PM CST!
HOW IT WORKS:
Sign up for the event. One person only!
I'll send you one randomly selected image and word to use as the theme of your game. There's no rules for what you use, use rips, custom, whatever you like! Build with your favorite engine! Feel free to work on/collect assets for your game before the start date, just don't actually start putting your game together until the beginning date of 5/3 at 4pm CST. New games only, don't dig out your dusty stuff and try to polish it up!
THERE'S ANOTHER NEW FEATURE - ONE TIME REROLL!
That's right folks, I'm giving people a one time chance to reroll their theme if they are truly unhappy with their image/word result from the initial roll. Use it wisely!
There are two nifty makerscore rewards for this game, one that goes to those who make a game demo, and those who submit a finished game!
Submit your finished game to the event page before the cutoff date, no extensions!(WELP I GUESS I LIED ABOUT NO EXTENSIONS)
A NOTE ABOUT THE IMAGES - The image theme will be handled very loosely to allow for creative freedom. I'll use this image as an example;
Now say for example you got the above picture. The theme included could be as vague or deep as you like, it could be about a forest, a dad and his kid, a pair of hunters, rifles, a road sign, a busted car, ANYTHING related to the image! Just because you have something you feel would be impossible to work with, do not expect us to judge you for thinking outside the box on some extreme tangent just because it doesn't match the image theme to the pixel. It's about fun! Go nuts!
MORE NOTES - We had a bit of a spat last event about words used, just laying this here now, I reserve the right to accept or deny any images/words used in the roulette post if I deem they aren't worthy of the Theme Roulette roster. ~Illy
EDIT - Due to popular demand, the event deadline has been extended to the 24th. No more extensions, so get your submissions in!

Actually, there is a thread for people to improve their description if you need help. Marrend is the Guardain Angel of game descriptions.
https://rpgmaker.net/forums/topics/13072/
Fixed :)
Saying that, Liberty's denial notice may have included a link to that thread. Sometimes, she denies descriptions because there isn't enough information concerning the game's story, setting, or what-have you.

Looks like a batch of games associated with this event have accepted gamepages now. I've updated this playlist to reflect that. Let me know if I messed up, or missed anything.
Meanwhile, it'll take an eternity for me to just edit out all the bugs and make it more solid.

I'm sure you can make it! Good luck ^..^

author=KylailaThank you. Maybe I should write Wendy a recipe for a good-luck-charm so she could make me one? Hmm. Worth a shot.

Don't worry too much about it Garage, my very first game on the site also got denied at first but accepted on second try, it happens.
It's a fairly common thing that games get denied for. It's not a huge deal, just fix up and away you go. Simple~

(Shameless self-advertisment on) Well my first game has been accepted on the first try. (self-ad off)

Yeah. I really hope I did better this time. I don't want to bother you more then I have to. It's pretty hard for me to come up with a not-too-spoilery not-too-over-the-top description for a game that's solvable in about an hour ...
Congrats to everyone for their efforts, and great job for everyone who finished their games in time! Note to self when time is extended: polish the game and maybe add s'more content, heh. :p
Played Atiya's game and it was a very enjoyable short independent story.
Dueling penguins was also neat, although I encountered the same glitch that MaxMcgee encountered which was a little disappointing.
KatanaHiroshi's game was also quite fun! Although the final part of it irritated me slightly, I still enjoyed it as a whole. It is a very nice little horror experience based on philipine(?) folklore.
NoBody13, how dare you not finish your game, I just got invested in the story and then it ends abruptly >:V You better finish this or I will hunt you down!
There's still so many more games to play x_x

I'm sooo glad you enjoyed it!! I told you the ending was rushed!! Don't worry, I already submitted a game page and I'm waiting for it to get accepted. Yesterday I removed some glitches, corrected some grammar errors and continued the scene where the game ended. I think I will be able to upload a demo asap. Even though it won't be that much longer than the beta version. I just added some things here and there and it won't end so suddenly. Thank you for playing my game. I really appreciate it. I'll play yours as soon as I have some time.
Ps: I made this game in one week that's why the ending was also kinda rushed, sorry for that XD
@NoBody13 Don't worry, knowing that you made it in only 1 week makes me actually appreciate it more. Looking forward to the Demo! I should also fix up my entry and make a gamepage.

author=NoBody13I played about half of them. Some of the games won't start with my setup anyway since I'm not using Windows.
Is there anyone who played all the games already?

I still need to finish The Mall, and try the version of psy's that doesn't softlock at the start, but have played the rest.

@garage what OS are you using? I didn't bother to make non-windows packages as for my other games they had zero downloads.

I'm using Linux. Many windows packaged games work quite fine for me since they do run under "wine".
Your entry is "MyComputer", right? I was able to play it, by the way.
I really liked those animations, especially the scene with that mirror.
As for the game itself: it's short (of course) but it's original enough to be fun.
Your battle system has a few unique twists to it that set it apart from other games, too. I fear I wasn't able to read all the stuff that Lacuna's "alter ego"? had to say since I sometimes was rather hard to read and didn't stay on-screen very long either.

Yeah sorry about the battle texts, I was testing with the black grid background and added battle backgrounds at the very end of the event. The computer font isn't easy to read. (But those popups in battle repeat after you see them all, so hopefully you get another chance to catch them)
Glad you liked the stuff I put the most effort into.
I'll make a native linux package for the game page, since MV can do that. (and I can test it)

Is Liberty going to play and stream these?
I'm interested in any comments about my game, and how it ran on other people's computers. My computer is pretty slow and it lagged quite a bit. That's the main reason I only worked on it for about a week.
