LIBERTY'S PROFILE

I enjoy playing and creating games (mostly RPGs) and have a love of story and characterisation above graphics. I've been into RM* since '96 and have used all makers - started on the PSX makers, found and used a patched version of the SNES RM, then moved to RM95. When I found RM2K I finally decided to join some forums and I've been a part of the community ever since.

Fear the Deer :: 2021 Gammak Challenge!

The rules of this challenge are as follows:
- The game must be playable in order to get the badge.
- The game must feature a deer prominently.
- The game must be started and finished within 2021.
- The game must have at least 10 minutes play time.
- The game must have an accepted game page on RMN.

You will need to post a link to it in this thread when finished. Also, feel free to share resources here too!

You will then receive a Deer badge worth 50MS.

I hereby declare this the Year of the Deer.



Deer have a lot of different symbolism attached to them. Not only are they a symbol of peace, but also one of determination, survival and sovereignty. In many cultures, the deer is a symbol of spiritual authority and their antlers serve as a symbol of regeneration and renewal.

Across many cultures, the deer symbolizes piety, devotion, harmony, happiness, peace, longevity, sensitivity, intuition, gentleness, fertility and softness. They are often considered messengers of a spiritual being, translators and guides to those who are lost.

Deer me!

Merry Christmas! (and other assorted holidays)




Hope you all have a wonderduf christmas and that next year isn't filled with plague, hate crimes and assholes!

Secret Santa Sign-ups 2020




It's that time of year again, folks! Time to get your share on~

What is this?
Why, it's Secret Santa, of course!

OH MY GOD! WHAT IS SECRET SANTA?!
It's a simple thing, really. Throw your name in the hat and get one in return. You are that person's Secret Santa and must keep the name secret from anyone! Then, before the due date below, you get them a present. On Christmas Eve, you will receive a gift from your own Secret Santa and happy fun times are had by all~

What counts as a present?
We usually like to keep it site-centric so stuff like reviews/media for games, short games that cater to that person's tastes, something for their game (resources/scripts/etc), a piece of fanart or fiction, a cool new avatar, something you think they'd like... that kind of thing. If you have a hard time coming up with ideas, you can ask me as an intermediary to ask them what they'd like.

If you have another idea for a gift, PM me and I'll let you know if it's fine.

So, how do you get in on this action?
Easy! Just give a holler in a comment below before the cut-off date. Simple, eh?

Rules are as follows:
- First rule of Secret Santa club. Don't talk about Secret Santa club.
- Second rule of Secret Santa club. See rule #1.
- Sign up below by leaving a comment that lets me know you're joining in.
- In that same comment list a few things that are your interests or that you'd like to get. It could be a review for a particular game of yours, the fact you like legos and spiderman or something of the like.
- The cut-off date for joining is the 9th of December.
- You will have until the 22nd of December to send me via PM the gift for your Secret Santa.
- I will be posting who had whom in this thread on the 26th so don't go spilling the beans before then!

- If you suddenly need to drop out, PM me ASAP and I'll do some rearrangements. It would be preferable that you don't drop out, though.

- While it is not a requirement to have a game in order to join, it makes things a lot easier on your Secret Santa if you do. In the case that you do not have a game, put some thought into what kinds of things you like when you make your list.

- Please make sure your gift is of a decent quality. Put some thought and/or effort into the gift.

- Please do not include illegal or pirated items in your gift. Especially pirated games. I didn't think it needed to be said, but apparently, it does.


How to submit
- For video submissions, use a free-hosting video site. There's plenty out there - Vimeo, DailyMotion, Googledrive, Twitch and the like.
- Send me the link via PM before the due date.
- For reviews and artsy stuff, send me the text/image/etc via PM before the due date.
- Do not add your reviews, arts or videos to the site until I say so in this topic.

RMN Donations

There's been a change to the current RMN Donation account - it's been updated to a new account for better access and usage.

This means that the old account is defunct and if you have a recurring donation that goes through you'll need to update it to the new one. Easily done, though!

The new account is linked to our Donate links, so just throw your deets that way and it should all be fine.

Thanks for all the support you guys send, it's super appreciated, no matter if it's a one-off donation or a continuous one. We love ya'll~<3

A Collection of Firsts

First games - the bane of all developers who seek to make something from nothing. They're rarely any good and tend to be quite embarrassing to look back on, but sometimes they're worth sharing with the world.

Let's celebrate our shitty first games by sharing them in a thread (because let's face it, most of them won't get past site standards). Use either your locker or an off-site host for linkage.

Use this handy form:

[b]NAME:[/b]
[b]ENGINE:[/b]
[b]DOWNLOAD:[/b]
[b]DESCRIPTION/PLOT:[/b]
[b]FEATURES:[/b]

Next Event Team Scouting

There's a team event coming up and I need a little help to divide you all into groups~


The aim of the event is to make various resources based on a palette given to you at the start, however you will be divided into three teams.

What I need to know from those who are interested in joining is this:
Graphic/Script/Music
Put in order, top to bottom, your best to worst skills as well as a short line of your abilities in each.

For example, for me:
Graphic - I can do pixels and UI pretty well, but not portraits and the like.
Script - I can fudge about with scripts a little in Ace, but I'm not great at it.
Sound - I can do VA, but that's about it.

So, I'm best at graphics, with script and sound kinda being equally bad in most areas. But if I were better at Scripts instead of the other two, I'd put it at the top.


How about you guys?

Art Prompts :: WEEKLY :: Rebirth

Just a small little thing. Sometimes we need a prompt to get the juices running, so here's this thread to help you out.

Every Saturday I'll throw a prompt down in the thread. Make something based around it. I can be anything! A drawing, painting, map, photo, poem, story, music, etc, etc.

At any time you can come back and, if you missed a week, throw it down in the thread. Nice and simple. No limits (bar site rules).

Prompt this week is...

Rebirth


Previous prompts:

-Hindsight
-Indignation
-Gloss

[Poll] That Romance Thing (Vote)

Valentine's Day is coming.

With it an event.

Here's a choice.

1 - Collaboration
Everyone make a map with romance as the main theme. Anything goes - scene, exploration, puzzle, etc. Resources are flexible and you can make cameos from your own games and whatnot. It's pretty much like Alex or Befuddle but with LOVE. it'll have a theme along the lines of "What is love" and you answer that.

2 - Game
Short game with romance as the main theme, made on one map. Up to you what to make as long as it's main romantic.

3 - Card
Everyone throw a cameo sprite or something of yourselves and a love message and I put them in a short playable card.

Give ideas as to wording, titles, descriptions, what can be gotten rid of, what you'd like to see (within reason pleaase) and the like. Keep in mind that not all suggestions will come to fruition, for whatever reason. It might just be beyond our ability at this time to do, or there might be a good reason we won't do it.

As for what we are capable of doing, that is limited by the way the site handles games and checks shit, but here's a few things we can make use of:
- Require game to have a demo
- Require that game is marked as in production
- Require that game is marked completed

That's it. That's what we're working with.
