ACTION 52 VX - 24 HOUR RPG MAKER THROWDOWN

Ideally it's about making a variety of games and seeing what you can do in a short time span. It's just that making a variety of games and seeing what you can do in a short time span can be a recipe for failure and bad games!

Really its just about having fun and fucking around. Kinda like the 3 hour competitions (which can result in some interesting games!)
Not everyone can be as awesome as me, GRS.

It shouldn't be that hard to make a crap game should it! And since it's apparently for any project sort of kind of then count me in! (unless it happens next week because I can't do next week)

Do it this week! Nobody will be the wiser!


All it needs is a game made in less than ~24 hours. The frontloader will probably demolish all the restrictions and if Kentona could do it ten years ago I can do it now!

Kentona: But we can try
So I made a little mini-game thing in about an hour. Might want to be careful about what you have on screen when you play it! (you'll understand when you see it)

Edit: Also I don't care if this hasn't started yet I spent literally thirty minutes on making this.
this is obscure user koff, here to announce his intention of participating!
Anybody with a Victreebel avatar from that huge list of freak pokemon is alright by me!

I also whipped up a quick frontloader so I'm going to change the rules so they aren't retarded:

NEW RULES
- ALL games of all makers will be accepted! Your game will not have any restrictions besides that it must be submitted before the deadline and you should avoid spending more than 24 hours on it. Stand alone projects are a plus.
- The deadline for games is Monday February 22nd (not this Monday). After that I'll put the games together, add them to the frontloader, and submit a gamepage for it.
- To submit, send me a PM with your game download, a title, and description. A screenshot would be handy too, but I can take those.

I'll be updating the OP tonight or tomorrow to reflect these changes. (or an event)
Well since I literally have a 4 day weekend I will use this opportunity to work on my entry for like 12 hours straight tomorrow and another 12 hours the day after (sleep is crucial to the gam makin). Also I will off cut all internet and social/physical contact, drinking only my saliva.

OK so the rule is 24 hours total working time? or am I reading that wrong?
I'm assuming so, be sure to keep track of how many hours you use up between breaks

Yes


Choose the interpretation that you think will help you with the spirit of the event: Don't get hung up on a giant project, try something new, and have fun!

can't make a bad game if you don't finish any games

Wait, so now projects are stand-alone? Or what?
Each game was always intended to be standalone. Originally the database separation was so all the games could be combined into the Super Game Catalog: One game made up of a bunch of other games. In my haste to create the topic I never considered one program loading others which completely removed any reason for the wonky DB allocation which would've only resulted in headaches for everybody. This also means anybody can use anything like a new maker or a fancy script or just a short game.

I apologize for any confusion. I'm not a very good event manager :(
I'll give this a shot or something.
Okay I'm in. I'm off Monday so I should be able to get a huge chunk of something done.

I have a whole week ahead of me with very little to do. Therefore I am quite in.

i will try to make SOMETHING for this, but i cannot promise it will be either good or long.
(watch as i drop like a week from now due to no free time)
24 hours total work time? That actually might be enough time to create something quasi-decent. I'm going to try to create an incredibly minimalistic RPG which may or may not have music/sound effects, depending on how much time I end up spending on other things.
Whether this is a success or a failure, I'll probably pick up the pieces and make something approaching semi-decent out of it afterward.
gonna try to do this at some point if i can find a cyrillic font for ags! 420 make games every day

It may be hard for me to find the time to do something like this, but ideas are already running through my head on what to make. Sign me up.
Hopefully we can get at least 24 people to have a badass "24 HOURS...24 PEOPLE....... 24 GAMES" tagline.
