I haven't played and found it by accident, plus it seems it's some niche NSFW thing

I played it. I read about the other entries, and it indeed looks like a fetish thing about big bellies, but while I guess all the other games can be safely disregarded (unless this is right up your alley)

Thanks for the kind words about my 'Blue Material'! I've added them both to the database now 👍

By the way... Somnamulizer: A Tale From Olympus U is still in beta version without the save option?

I prefer to think of it as "Iron Man Mode" version???? And also might have broken that game's source and not backed it up??? ':| ':| ':| (Also I thought I had an autosave system set up but thinking back it is very possible I also forgot to add a 'load' button)

I love the hell out of Slasher's project so far

As for me, it's more than a week in and I'm still building the interface so whoooo knows if this is getting finished but-




Contemporary fantasy featuring an old house!

[BEST BACKGROUND ART]

For your consideration...

TERROR OF THE VAMPIRE!

Terror Of The Vampire is a classical point and click adventure featuring inventive puzzles, fascinating characters and surely too many jokes to be seen in one playthrough, all wrapped in an eye-wateringly beautiful retro presentation.

For particular consideration...
BEST BACKGROUND ART
For the stunning environments (by Scavenger) and cutaways (by Scavenger and Samael)




BEST PROGRAMMING
For Scavenger's graphical plugins; which allow a game using 8-bit colour to contain translucency, colour tinting and take full advantage of the power of a dynamically adapting 256-colour palette.


BEST CHARACTER/BEST CHARACTER ART
Because would you hecking look at these cutie-pies!


BEST WRITING
Primarily for this one dialogue tree I made

I am CHARMED!

Yo! Congrats Robolovers!!
We're disappointed but also pumped we got to be in this crazy, intense month! I don't know if everyone else is having this thought a lot as a result of this contest but this game engine and community we like... it's still pretty hecking good, right???

Spoiler

If you try to pick up the chain after you freed Byron the game acts as if he's still there, the dialog plays. Greyed out, though.

And the game crashed. Some time later, that is. When talking to Hoxton.

Hey, thanks for the reporting.
It's not pretty but this quick and dirty fix should at least stop the game from crashing at that moment: https://db.tt/jNWljByQn2

We are now halfway through June. How about a round of show-and-tell?

UPDATE:

Design: 100%
Backgrounds: 100%
Character animations: 50%
Writing: 60%
Scav's art skills: 11230%
Eggie's feelings of inadequacy: 98%

USE HAT ON RING.

Me and Scavenger of Heatwave and Death Wore Endless Feathers renown have teamed up on a short game about cartoon animals and I am devastated emotionally by how freaking beautiful all the graphics they've made are for it. I am a wreck. I am in no fit state.

IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL! WHAT THE HELL! HOW DID I END UP GETTING TO WORK ON SOMETHING THIS PRETTY THIS IS A DREAM COME TRUE!

Look at THESE ChArAcTeRsss, look at our sweet gothic animal children who we love:


This is the best-looking game ever you guys!

Funkpanzer: That looks cute as a button!

Arg, I want to be there properly this time, not just slink up at the pub afterwards then awkwardly shuffle off.
I'll definitely be pitching in to the Kickstarter too.

I am in!


Here is a candid, behind-the-scenes video depicting my entire creative process so far

I love this and I'm super happy to see it still going strong

These are beeeeaaaautiful!

JUDGING
DISCLAIMER: All the entries were amazing. This was horrible and I did not want to do it.


THIRD PLACE For sticking beautifully to the restrictions and giving us a chaacter we can instantly rcognise: MAD


SECOND PLACE For sticking beautifully to the restrictions, for using the available colours in an innovative way and recreating two perfect OC babus we can all recognise: SCAVENGER


FIRST PLACE For the added chutzpah of taking on a character actually FROM Maniac Mansion, sticking beautifully to the restrictions  and ending up with something that, in my opinion, improves on the original: TABATA!!!

So take it away, Tabata. This decision was rough on me and I'm going to go and cry now

That would be amazing! I'm...uh... not exactly happy with the dialogue for the first one as it stands but once I finally get around to cleaning that up it would be great ti get in touch about that.

Speaking of clean-up, a new version got uploaded today so for anyone new to this thread: Hopefully the issues we've been discussing for the last three pages won't be issues any more.
Thanks to everyone who played this game and helped identify problems

Great job guys! You guys did a real impressive thing!

Okay but now make them fight!

You guys are blowing me away over here!

Amélie your lil' Geralt is the cutest dang thing and Scavengeeer you followed everything, you did it all, you maniac! The Heatwave guys look amazing!
