My main thing is just that the stuff I wanna do isn't generally something I can get done within the timespan of an event. Other than doing a million Lobster Quest games, but that's more a once-in-a-while treat.
I think one of the draws of events (at least on RMN) is seeing what your fellow game devs also come up with when given the same time and theme and such as you. It always amazes me just how creative everyone can be and how awesome the stuff they turn out is. It's pretty damn inspirational to me.

Oh, same, definitely! I just find it a bit silly to have events based on doing what we're supposedly here to do in the first place. :V

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

I voted for puzzles because of course I did, but I'm not disappointed that fairy tales is winning. We can do a lot of fun stuff with that.
FRACTURED FAIRYTALES! I voted that, I simply LOVE the idea... I even have already an idea! *EXCITEEEEED*

I think I'll try to make Marxist Sleeping Beauty with vampires in it.

That idea that came up on Discord of a dating game with goal to no longer be a virgin so you can't be sacrificed is still my favourite. XD

That was for the fairy tale of Saint George and the Dragon, right?

Are you secretly a fairy tale nerd? hehehe

Good idea tho, for sure!

You could pretty much easily add a cult twist to most

Rapunzel is being kept prisoner by a cult
Cinderella finds out after going to the ball that it's actually a cult gathering
Goldilocks finds a house that turns out to be a cult clubhouse
Alice in Wonderland is actually Alice being subjected to drugs by a cult
Hansel and Gretel's witch is actually a cultist
Snow White is being chased by a cult rather than her stepmother
Jack is given the bean that is actually a tracking device used by a cult to kidnap him


See? Easy peasy.


Also I should mention this. There is actually a seriously good two part flash game series called Gretel and Hansel that's basically a horror twist on the story that you should seriously check out if you need inspiration. Seriously, that shit was my literal favorite as a kid.

Generally speaking, there isn't enough density of human in fairy tales to merit a cult. Not to mention people didn't really have a definition of cult at the time in the way that we mean it today.

You might could look into stories with groups of robbers, such as the Robber Bridegroom, or stories of serial killers like Bluebeard or the Widow and her Daughters.
Out of curiosity, if fractured Fairy tales wins,
What am I saying it will

Is it possible to do Japanese fairy tales as well? There was one
story that I was thinking about doing but I'm not 100% sure yet
