I think I prefer it to be a non-contest, with a specific theme to make it interesting! Like you said, Monster, or zombie, or black and white.

I would like to do a collab with everyone, but I guess that would be slightly hard?
But I think we can do it if we gather a specific size of a character image dressing for halloween with transparent background, then someone would be incharge of gathering them all and paste them into one file.
Okay, I just made things more difficult. Nevermind.

It's probably better to just stick with a general theme of "Halloween" so we can spend less time deciding on the theme and more time working on stuff xD;;;;; But a list of specific topics to help people decide what to make might be helpful! Like monsters, zombies, graveyard, foods, trick or treat, witches, ghosts, cats, haunted house, darkness, pumpkins, fear, etc.

I've updated the first post into actually making this a thing. Thought it would be better than creating a new thread just for that.

Having a Halloween theme for a non-contest sounds good.

Sounds like a fun idea! I'd also love to do it if i don't get crushed by work (fends off incoming assignments with a stick).

When I first saw the Halloween theme, my brain instantly went to Trick-or-Treat -> costumes -> cosplay! instead of the normal spooky monsters and horror things. Definitely something wrong with me, lol. ;p

Sounds do-able :) Heck, I'll participate! Even though I need to be working my butt off this year to compensate for my shitty AS results last year...
Oo is there a word limit to the VN? And must it be a VN?

I think I'll team up with someone (need to get his okay first) for a story and picture combo, and it'd a crossover of our games' characters. That isn't breaking any of the rules per se, but it isn't included so...?

Edit: lol got his okay ,we've got this all planned and out it's gonna be great :'D

Heh... I'll stick another stake through my forehead to pressure myself some more. Witch Apprentice will be written in time for this! Grrr....

(Although I'm pretty sure it's not going to really end up matching any of the guidelines.)
(I guess I'll also throw in an obligatory "Have fun, guys!")
(All projects currently on a hiatus of sorts. I blame life.)

Not really checking the forums any more due to time constraints, so if you want to contact me, PM. I'll get a notification and log in. :mrgreen:
Also, I've been hit and run posting, which means I don't see many replies. If you want to respond to something I've said, also feel free to PM me.

NOTE: if you've got questions about vnovel or things like that, it's Leon that you should be contacting. Leon's been pretty much handling everything, but due to various reasons, I've had to withdraw entirely.

Sounds like fun.

The rules are a little vague though, Well for those of us who haven't done anything like this.
So, we make a Quick game or scene under 1k words/3 minuets with one BG, with established characters from our own games/ projects.

Also for those looking for Ideas here are a few hundred horror books. Underworld tales
Don't be a Poser! Learn to Draw
Learn to Draw with Stan Lee
Learn to Draw with Mark Crilley
If you want you can brows my art. My art can be found at...FA // IB // DA Neglected for a few years so I'm just now updating it

Learn to break a bone to break a bone,
Learn to build a house to build a house,
Learn to make a Game to make a Game.

Ah, to make this clear, it's not a VN you are making. You can if you want of course but that would be crazy ambitious. Basically you just have to create a single work. If you want to write you can do a short story or poem. If you want to draw you can create a picture or a short comic. If you create music you can do a short halloween piece.

And yes, collaborations are fine.
