Description

You guys really didn't know this was coming? HA!

Everyone has THREE WEEKS (and some change) to make a short game using not one, NOT TWO, but ... okay, it is two elements from... THIS POST RIGHT HUR

You will get one randomly selected image, one randomly selected word, ANNNND...

A randomly rolled GENRE,
and randomly rolled SETTING!

Examples of GENRE can include, but is not limited to things like, "RPG, Horror, Adventure"
Examples of SETTING can include, but is also not limited to things like, "Futuristic, Retro, Fantasy"


SIGNUPS WILL CLOSE ON 8/14 9PM EST!

HOW IT WORKS:
Sign up for the event. One person only!

I'll send you one randomly selected image, word, genre, and setting 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! Starting time is 8/7 12PM EST! As soon as you sign up, I'll work on getting you your themes. New games only, don't dig out your dusty stuff and try to polish it up!

BRINGING BACK TR2/3'S 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/genre/setting 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! ... Hopefully!

A NOTE ABOUT THE IMAGES- The image theme will be handled very loosely to allow for creative freedom. I'll use this image (again, again) 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!

AND, as far as the genre and setting goes, I'll be holding these choices as loosely as the others. So long as we can take a look at your game, tilt it sideways and make some semblance of sense regarding the genre/setting, it should be fine!

Keep in mind that 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

OKAY

I AM SORRY FOR ALL THE DELAYS T.T

I now have finally moved my computer to a setup where I can stream without interrupting Orc's work! So WITHOUT A DOUBT (short of some damned miraculous thing happening) will finish the last two games tomorrow at 6pm EST (approximately) as soon as I get home from work. Then I can send out all the achievos!


:D Good to hear!

Tuesday night is next stream! Only two left to go! Gonna start with Zakariya's!

Same time as usual, 9ish PM EST!

EDIT - Sorry guys, just not feeling it tonight. I'll try again same time, tomorrow!
We're closing in on the final gams! My next stream will be Wednesday 10/6 at 9pm-ish EST~

We'll be diving into Delsin's gam first since I cut it short last stream (plus I feel like it may be a big gam), then after that hopefully I'll have Zakariya's in working order!
Ok! Next strem will be Tuesday 9/28, usual time of 9pm-ish EST!

We'll be starting with Zakariya's gam, then going into Pudding's if we have time!

Well, uh, turns out I don't own a Linux, so Zakariya if you could be so kind as to get me a version that runs in windows? I tried to copy an .exe from another renpy game, but no dice. I'll have to start with Garages gam tonight and see if I can play yours next stream.
I just watched your stream of my game. There IS one good ending, but it's kinda easy to miss.
(Hint: you should've tried to talk to Claire at least one more time)


And of course adding music wouldn't pose a technical problem. It's just that I'm way too used to play games without sounds myself to even notice that others might be missing them and I find it hard to find decent sources of free-to-use sounds (call me lazy or picky if you want).

That said, I hope you had at least some fun playing it.

You may want to turn the volume down when you play my game. :P
Next stream I'm planning for Tuesday night! Same time as usual, 9pm-ish EST.

Next in line is Zakariya's gam, followed by Garage's gam if I have time!

I had a lot of fun with Aegix's, I'll probably be going back to finish that one~


^_^ Thanks for the praise! I'm glad you're enjoying it!

If there's any improvements or feedback you want to offer, please do! :) I'm going to be adding more stuff to it for a proper Gamepage release eventually.
OKAY

Next strem will be Thursday night, around 9pm EST. I'll play for only an hour or two.

We'll be starting with orochii's game since it is now fixed, and them following up with pianotm's if I have time!
I uploaded a fixed version of the game. It's just filenames for the music now only containing ASCII characters (no more Japanese shenanigans), and reassigned them to their corresponding maps/events/whatnot.

Here is a direct link (made a gampagg for it one of these days because... /shrug).
https://rpgmaker.net/games/12186/downloads/12197/
Just finished the next stream, I had to skip orochii's game for technical difficulties for now so I'll slide it down the list til it gets ready. I was able to play Marrend, anyon175, and Aegix's gams.

They were all interesting and fitting of their themes! I had a lot of fun with Aegix's, I'll probably be going back to finish that one~

If you missed the stream, you can always watch the video on my twitch page!
I'll see if I can make it, depending on time I'll be busy with work, or might be available for a while on a break. At least my game is short so it should be quick XD.
Okay guys! I got my next day planned for more TR4 streams, since last one was so short I was only able to finish Yellow Magic's game. We'll be starting with orochii's game next stream, and the plan for it is tomorrow, on Labor Day!

The time I'm still up in the air about, but I'll make sure to make a post with a little time before I start. It will likely be in the early afternoon - somewhere between noon and 2ish EST (Roughly 24 hours from this post).
