Wanted: renpy.org curators

#1 Post by PyTom » Sat Nov 02, 2013 2:05 pm

So, it's been quite some time since I last updated the featured projects on http://www.renpy.org. This is for a bunch of reasons - most notably, I worry that my views as to what have been featured aren't reflective of the rest of the community. So, I'm going to ask the community to submit pairs or trios of projects that can be featured on the Ren'Py home page.

Here are a few guidelines:

1) We want to feature 2 or 3 projects at a time. We might also feature more creative combinations of games, like giving one of the slots to the results of a contest or a series of related games.

2) The featured projects should be less than two years old, and use a reasonably current release of Ren'Py. In general, they should be good examples of Ren'Py in use.

3) The games should be tasteful, both in terms of adult content (with at least an all-ages version or option), and in terms of not being troll-games or something like that.

4) The games should appeal to a range of players. I'd prefer not to get into a situation where we have multiple similar games on the home page.

5) To protect against conflicts of interest, please avoid suggesting your own games, or games created by your close associates.

For each game, I'll need:

* A 384-pixel wide image.
* Suggested text that explains why the game is featured, or what it has to do with Ren'Py.
* A link.

For example:

Great idea! I was hoping someone would update those soon...

Here's one I played recently and liked that fits the requirements:
