GAME PAGE WORKSHOP EVENT! SIGN UPS ARE OPEN!

The RMN Game Page Workshop is the first of its kind on RMN, where developers can put their creative mettle to the test and craft the best gamepage for their project and pit them against others on the site, to win the ultimate prize of BEST GAMEPAGE, and an award of an RMN Badge celebrating such, just below a Nobel Peace Prize in esteem.

What's a Gamepage, you ask? How do I make one, you ask? What are philosophical and sociological ramifications of Sarte's work "Being and Nothingness"? You're on your own for the last one, but the first two, we got you covered! RMN hero Liberty wrote a fine piece on the basics of Game Pages, and if you want to get fancy, (and you do), Louis Cyphre penned an awesome tutorial on CCSing your page!

You'll have two weeks (September 21, 2016 to October 5th, 2016) to make the best, snazziest, most awesome gamepage that you can. Voting will be done by the community and your peers, and the winners get cool badges and the pride of knowing that they're the best around. But even if you don't win, your gamepage will still look better than it did beforehand, and isn't that a little victory on its own? So sign up!

If your first thought is "I don't think I'll enter, I don't know CSS and I suck", destroy that thought, and here's why: It's not too late to learn a little bit of CSS! It's a user friendly format and simple enough (especially with our tutorials) to use it to spruce up your gamepage, not too dissimilar from some of the coding some of us are using, and at best, you may win! At worst, you won't win, but your game page, your project, and ultimately your exposure as a gamedev will be better off for it!

This event is as much for your progress and growth as a game developer as it is a thing to win! So if you're in it to win it, great! If not, give it a shot anyway! There's no losers here.

Some words from Liberty!

Hey, even if you don't win the first place spot, there is a badge for joining up and refining your gamepage.

CSS isn't necessary - look at the different aspects of your gamepage and clean it up a bit, give it a spit-shine.

Maybe it could use some graphical components?
Maybe it could use a bit of a polish on the description?
How about a banner instead of that old default name tag?
Some colours splashed in the text?

Hell, even if you add a background image (which is super simple - there's a code for it in the comments of the CSS tutorial!) or changing the game page colours, it counts.
