official igmc participation station 2018

Was a long month, but fun. Congrats to everyone who finished!

official igmc participation station 2018

Yay, contest. I don't think I've made anything complete since the last IGMC actually...

Screenshot Survival 20XX

Playing around with new tools: (gif quality is low sadly)


The character is default art from Visual Novel Maker, but it's not animated by default, artist is figuring out Live2D (although it doesn't support the latest version, so she learned a bunch that went to waste.)

Gotta do something simple to get the hang of it before we do something deeper.

Heroes of the Storm

Anyone still playing this?

I'm about high Silver/low Gold tier and play this a lot, not sure if there's an RMN group or anything.

OFFICIAL IGMC 2017 TAKING PART THREAD (BETTER THAN REVIVER) EXTRAVAGANZA 2,000,000

Meh, it's kinda tedious to make a game page, I prefer putting it off now that the excitement of being done is past.

Is RTP bad?

Even on Steam you see a lot of it now, but in RM communities (where most are posted) it's VERY well known. :)

RTP is as bad as you make it.


Actually the problem is that RTP is as bad as the viewer decides to make it.

And many will write off your game or expect some other areas to be exceptionally to make up for that perceived slight as the OP fears.

There is no universal rule that RTP will be looked down on, but I think it's short sighted to think the community takes it seriously on an average basis.

I'm rooting for the games that are here on RMN!

Support!


Need to get that Quidget game to post here, they don't know the popular place to share games! (RPGMaker ones in particular.)

Sweet, does that mean judging is almost done?

I'm honestly not surprised Quidget won People's Choice. :)

Is RTP bad?

Because both are subjective. (And I was countering Kentona's flippant answer.)

I've had to use the RTP for so long because I don't feel right using rips and neither me nor my partner can do pixel work.

If you want oohs and aahs make a custom tileset or edit and put in lighting effects. Custom artwork is a semi-close second, and custom music and programming are tertiary winners, but I think pixel work in a community that is based on nostalgia is huge and will always be the easiest thing to judge at a glance (which is paramount when there is so much information constantly in our face.)

Remember, you're marketing this game to people; when you see a really neat title screen on the front page I bet you're curious to check it. If you see an RTP one do you even give it a second thought? What about when that title screen is just hiding RTP-looking gameplay? Now what about the screenshots section; how many RTP-looking ones do you check there? (Don't answer, these are questions meant to spark honest introspection.)

It's a problem I've been mulling over for years since I do this only as a hobby, and trust me when I say that the RTP is a difficult hurdle to climb (not impossible.)

You still need a solid game behind it however, don't mistake that.
