"There is a gathering in the town square!"
The shouting outside rouses you from your slumber. You blink as you slowly adjust to the glow of dawn shining in your eyes. A gathering in the square? It may be interesting, you think, so you quickly dress and head out. The square is filled with young men and women very much like yourself. Before you have the opportunity to ask the boy next to you what this is all about, trumpets ring out and you find your gaze drawn to the platform in the centre of the square. There stands a woman; perhaps the loveliest you have ever seen. Her copper curls of hair sparkle in the morning sun, and her grey eyes glint with cleverness. She smiles at the audience, her perfect pink lips forming the sweetest of shapes. You marvel at the statuesque build of the woman, the gentle curve of her waist, her perfectly proportioned bosom- WHISPERS FROM OFFSTAGE: EMMYCH GET ON WITH IT OR YOU'RE FIRED </rantign> EMMYCH: What? Oh- right, uh... The woman holds up her hand and silences the crowd. "Greetings, citizens of Armvexopolis! I am Emalthea, a lady of the Royal Palace. I have come today to request a great favour of you. You see, I wish to hold a tournament this October, so I have need of your greatest warriors!" The crowd turns and whispers to each other, confused. Finally, a young lady speaks up: "We don't have any warriors here." Emalthea frowns. "No warriors?" She repeats, her voice faltering. "Goodness, that is unfortunate. What do you have, then?" The crowd is silent. "Uh, we make games, ma'am," You say. She stares at you, blinking. "Games? Is that all you do?" She taps her foot and seems to attempt to process this new piece of information. "Well, if that is all you do...alright, then: we shall have a game making contest!" The crowd buzzes with excitement now that Emalthea has caught their interest. You are still a little unsure, so you raise your hand. "What exactly is the theme for this contest?" She blinks again. You think to yourself that she seems rather dim, but you wait for her answer anyway. Finally, she flashes you a winning smile. "I have decided that I shall need an adviser in order to adapt my original contest idea! You, citizen: you shall advise me." She signals to the tall guards on either side of her. They step forward and pull you towards the centre of the square. "My good people, since I need to confer with my subject here and finalize the details, I will not be able to reveal the true nature of the contest until September 30th. You shall begin your work then, but you should think about what it is you wish to create in the meantime. I shall give you this clue to guide your thoughts: your game will need to be very fun!" The crowd wonders if this woman has lost it. "Of course games need to be fun, where did this weirdo come from again?" "Are these the people who are ruling us? Maybe we should have a democracy..." She waves as the guards pull you towards the large palace at the other end of town. "Until then, my darling subjects!" She calls, and the crowd applauds awkwardly. Good gravy, what have you gotten yourself into? ------- TL;DR: Contest is happening. Details to come on the 30th. Until then, think about what makes games fun! |

If I were a judge, then I'd prefer a new and fresh project, ...unless the info on the 30th limits us to pre-made ones.

Nope, this is all gonna have to be fresh material! You'll get more details later, but you will have to create this within the time limit you'll be given.
I mean, otherwise it wouldn't be fair. D: AND I DO MY BEST TO MAKE THINGS FAIR. >B| |

Loved the little story, Em. It was entertaining
Anyway, I'll enter this, for sure (I think). It's a good excuse to actually make a game in full and show what I can do, before my gigantic projects actually manage to get work done on 'em. Also, will there be any resource restrictions (like "only VX resources")? I'd like to know ahead of time, so I can think of the style I want to present. -------------------- Come join Team Smash today! ![]() Other stuffz: Spoiler: RPGMakerVX.net Awards: Spoiler: Check out my tutorial and articles: How to Write a Story The Kaptain's Article Dump |

Nope, no graphic restrictions! If you want to spend time on custom graphics for the project, then go ahead.
BUT I WARN YOU: If you start on stuff now, you'll probably end up with stuff you can't use/won't need. THINK about stuff, but don't actually start on anything. |
