I've decided to host another before this one, it starts in three days: https://itch.io/jam/rpg-maker-10-day-rtp-challenge-4

If you are using RPG Maker MV or MZ and want to include a Browser version of your game (which will ensure more people will play it), here's a quick guide on how to do that:

1) When you are deploying the game, choose the Web Browsers platform.

2) Locate your deployed game folder and once you have everything you need inside it, compress the folder into a .zip format (by default on Windows, you can right-click the folder, select Send to and choose Compressed (zipped) folder).

3) Create a Project page on itch.io or edit an existing one. Under Kind of Project, choose HTML (you will still be able to add downloadable versions for other platforms like Windows, so don't worry).

4) Upload the zipped folder of your deployed game to your Project page on itch.io.

5) Mark "This file will be played in a browser" for the uploaded .zip game folder.

6) Scroll down to "Embed options", under "Viewport dimension", enter the resolution of your game. The default resolution for both RPG Maker MV and MZ games is Width: 816 and Height: 624

7) Under Frame Options, mark whatever options you think will be useful for your game.

8) Save the changes, then go to your project page. Click Run Game. This will configure the Browser version of the game for the first time and make it playable. After some time, the game should load and from now on, it should be playable in browser.

If you don't manage to submit your project to the game jam before the submission period ends, you can post a link to your game in this thread and I will give you a late submission link that will allow you to submit the game anyway.

You have time to do so until the rating period has ended.

Glad to hear that, because I'm definitely gonna host more of these!

Themed Horror Game Jam #23

9th of January - 22nd of February

This is a casual horror jam. Simply put, pick one of the three Themes chosen for the current jam, then make a horror game in 45 days based on your chosen Theme. There are also optional Bonus Challenges included with each Theme for those who want more guidance. Hopefully, by the end of the game jam, you'll have something playable you can be proud of!

Here's the link to the game jam!

RPG Maker Horror Game Jam #14

9th of January - 22nd of February

RPG Maker has spawned many great horror games and now it's time to create games in the style of these classics! You are welcome to join this jam no matter if you are a beginner or an experienced developer, so long as you want to create a game inspired by traditional RPG Maker horror games. Hopefully, at the end of the game jam you will have something playable you can be proud of!

Theme: Endless Ocean

The sheer vastness of the ocean is as daunting and breathtaking as it is fascinating. This particular ocean goes beyond that though. Sometimes, there's no horizon to sail towards, other times, there are many different ones. It's possible to sail among the moon and stars or even on the underside of the surface. The currents shift and turn in incomprehensible ways and things that seem to be far are actually really close and vice versa.

Scattered islands show up from time to time, capturing glimpses of time and space, offering insights into what once existed, what will be, what could've been and what shouldn't be possible, but exists anyway. The greatest wonders as well as the most fearsome of horrors can be found here.

And now, the Endless Ocean beckons you to set sail upon it! Where will this voyage lead you to?

Bonus Challenges

1) Non-Euclidean Space: In the game, space sometimes doesn't work as it should work in a logical fashion. (For example, two locations that seem to be far apart could be connected by a door that shouldn't lead there etc.)

2) Truly Endless: The game world loops around or is otherwise without clear boundaries.

3) Islands Out Of Time: The game features various islands that seem to contain various random buildings, people and items, as if they were lost in time and ended up there.

RPG Maker Themed Game Jam #14

9th of January - 22nd of February

RPG Maker is a simple game engine that is well suited for making classical JRPG-style games and has also been used to make many other different types of games. And now, it's time to make more of them! Hopefully, at the end of the game jam you will have something playable you can be proud of!

Theme: Sea Witch

The seas are treacherous even at the best of days, as the heroes of your game will likely find out. During their latest voyage, they entered the domain of an infamous Sea Witch, about whom there are many, often conflicting legends.

Some say she lives on an island within the high seas, wracked by fierce storms and guarded by monstrous sea creatures. Others claim that her lair is within the depths of the sea, inside a dark, underwater cave. And yet more claim something entirely different, as there seem to be more mysteries than real answers surrounding this enigmatic figure.

What will the heroes of your game discover once they finally meet her? A friend or foe? Will she provide assistance or be the one whose malicious schemes the heroes will have to overcome? Will the heroes triumph or will the only thing that awaits them be a watery grave?

It's up to you to create their tale as they discover the true nature of this dreaded Sea Witch!

Bonus Challenges

1) Water of Life and Death: The story is about some magical water that can prolong lifespan of the living and raise the dead as undead monstrosities.

2) Pirate Ship: There's a pirate ship in the game.

3) Renewing Tide: The protagonist has some some kind of water-themed skill/ability that does damage to enemies while healing the protagonist and their allies at the same time.
