Irog's "Rat Deck"
Starmage's "Egyptian Castle"
Scourge's "Winter's Night"
pianotm's "Cozy Places"
Also, I replayed aquatorrent's entry now that some interactions have been added. They helped bring the map to life a lot more, nicely done!
Irog's "Rat Deck"
This was a neat concept! At first I thought there were a lot of passability errors but then I realized you could walk underneath furniture because you were a rat. It's a cool idea that I haven't really seen done before. Would've been nice to see this fleshed out a bit more, maybe with some interactions and more maps to explore. Solid effort, though!
Starmage's "Egyptian Castle"
Lovely atmosphere to this entry. I'm always happy to see more archaeological type stuff in rpg maker, especially since I've been watching a lot of adventure movies recently, so the timing of this is kind of perfect. The mapping has a few issues, namely the inconsistent wall heights compared to the stairs, but nothing too distracting. Unique interactions for all the food and drinks was a fun idea.
Scourge's "Winter's Night"
Yet another really atmospheric entry. This feels really fleshed out, a lot of worldbuilding in the interactions, and all the people doing their own different things helps the setting feel very alive. It feels a lot like a little snippet from a full length RPG. The mapping is also quite nice, all of the space was used purposefully and there's a good amount of attention to detail. Great job!
pianotm's "Cozy Places"
This was really great, I love the interactions, they're all pretty funny, but Liberty's was easily the highlight. I love how the whole world loops around on itself and things like the bowling minigame. My only feedback would be that I wish the bowling minigame had some sound effects, but otherwise this is a lovely cozy little experience.

That's Frogge's fault. I actually removed interactions from my game because the rules specified you could only have minor ones.
Damn if only you'd played the example game I linked on the event page that I mentioned wouldn't take longer than a few minutes :P

Gave a 24 hour extension totally not because I need it for mine or anything so the event ends on a sunday instead. Good chance for anyone who wants to polish up their entry further or add anything.

Playing through the entries that have been submitted so far, here's my feedback for them!
lav's "A Nice House"
Soul's "Train Sim"
Marrend's "Derram Station"
CrazyBabi's "Cozy Place"
Aquatorrent's "House Map"
Ulevo's "Checkar Building"
Winter's Night is taking a while to download on my crappy internet and I've really gotta be off to sleep, so I'll get to it tomorrow with anything else that ends up getting submitted. Nicely done so far, everyone, some great results came out of this and I hope the event provided some good practice for you all!
lav's "A Nice House"
This is really cute! The interactions are endearing and the custom graphics look great. The mapping could be touched up here and there, but it's mostly pretty minor stuff. The only thing that really stuck out to me is that maybe the first floor has a few too many windows and empty space in the kitchen. Otherwise, this fits the event really well. Nicely done :)
Soul's "Train Sim"
Some cool ideas here, but a little underwhelming. The mapping would be the main area for improvement - the scrolling backgrounds are a great touch but otherwise it doesn't feel too much like a train. There could have been a lot more included to make the map feel more alive, like exit doors, luggage holds, advertisement posters, maybe some seats with tables, etc. A bit strange not having any visible control panels in the conductor room aswell. Still, good effort on things like the announcement board (I honestly have no idea how you've pulled it off, it's pretty impressive). I know you could do better, it just needed a bit more of a push.
Marrend's "Derram Station"
Great submission! The mapping is pretty solid and the interactions are enjoyable. Especially the bar drinks - this was an amazing idea, I had a blast going through every single one. Using indicators for what you could interact with was a nice touch too. The main area for improvement I can think of would be the outside of the ship. Rather than just looking out into space, it would've been cool to perhaps see some jets or engines.
CrazyBabi's "Cozy Place"
I really like this one, despite being spooky it does actually have kind of a cozy vibe in the same way as something like liminal spaces. I think the lack of music was a good choice and actually allowed the sound effects to shine in its place. I also like that there's implications of a story here, it had me intrigued to keep exploring. The custom graphics look really nice. If I am to criticize anything, I would say I wish it had a few more interactions, and also that more sources of light would have been nice, but those are quite minor things. This is a great submission none the less.
Aquatorrent's "House Map"
Nice map, good use of space and interesting layout. Some interactions would've been cool but I had a good time walking around regardless. It's a bit strange that the credits are on the bed instead of the notepad next to it, though.
Ulevo's "Checkar Building"
Yet another really good entry! The mapping and visuals look great. The sound design creates a nice atmosphere, and the lack of people gives it kind of a creepy-comforting Yume Nikki-ish vibe for me. You can keep opening the safe to get more and more money but I'm guessing that was probably intentional.

Thanks for checking out the game and taking the time to write a review even if it didn't turn out to be for you sacred! I'm excited to watch the LP once it's up.

Update regarding games not being made in rpg maker:
If your engine isn’t tile based, or you’re making a 3D entry, take the 50x50 map size limit as an approximate guideline. I’ll be lenient as long as what you make is within reason.
