dreamdiaryjam: It’s time for another Dream Diary Jam! Edit:Jam runs from May 15th, 2020 to June 26th, 2020. You can join before or during those dates! Yume Nikki’s 16th anniversary is this year. To celebrate, we’re hosting a game jam where participants make a Yume Nikki fangame in 6 weeks. You can work in whatever engine you’d like with however many people you’d like, as long as you turn it in by June 26th, 2020! You can see all the rules (don’t worry, they’re short) here on itch.io. Here are the currently accepted types of entries: A Traditional Yume Nikki Fangames - These games are just like Yume Nikki, except with different protagonist & worlds and sometimes a few game mechanics changed up. They’re like sequels or spiritual successors to the original game in lieu of an actual Yume Nikki update. Get as experimental as you’d like. Examples of these games include .flow, Yume 2kki, Lcd Dem, and Answered Prayers. An Actual Fangame of Yume Nikki - These games use the characters and setting of the original game and make a new game with them in it. They’re like fanfiction, except with a lot more programming. You can make anything from a JRPG to a dating sim for this one, as long as it features the cast of Yume Nikki. Examples of these games include NASU Plus, Memories of Replica, Dream Kombat, and Yume Nikki Hazard. An update to a previous submission - Did you enter a game in Dream Diary Jam 1, 2, or 3 and want to make an update on it? Now’s your chance! You can take this option even if you’ve been working off jam on your game, as long as you provide a substantial update. We have two OPTIONAL themes this year: Nostalgia and fungi/mushrooms. You can incorporate one or both of them into your game any way you’d like (as the premise, as the mood, as an effect or world, etc.), or you can choose not to! Have fun and get creative. c: Come sign up on itch.io if you’d like to participate, & check out the discord if you’re feeling social! Feel free to send in questions to this blog & on the itch.io page, and have a good time. See you soon, dreamers! I forgot to put the date on, so here it is with the date OTL -- source link
