Submissions are officially open!

Crips for eSims for Gaza and Connecting Humanity have already done so much work bringing Internet access to the people of Gaza, but the need for funding is constant. So we are very proud to announce the submission phase of our upcoming eSim bundle on Itch.io!

Do you have a game, zine, or hell, anything else published on Itch? We would love to have you for our cause!

Submissions will be open from January 27 to February 10th!

The Palestinian Relief bundle is finally live, and a PDF of my manga oneshot, Tattoo to Tomorrow, can be found in it!

It’s free to read on my website, but with a simple $8 donation, you could get that AND nearly 400 other games, comics, and TTRPGs! We’ve already raised $210,000 and we’re just a short hop away from the $250,000 goal. The fundraiser ends in about a week so make sure to get it soon!

Hello! The Palestinian Relief Bundle looks super cool and I'm delighted to see it up :) That said, is there any direct confirmation through PCRF that this is going through them? Or some other confirmation of legitimacy (maybe through itch.io itself)? I'm sure this is legitimate (can't imagine that many game devs contributing otherwise), but I'd like to boost this in a large server, so I want to be able to answer any questions about it.

Thanks for putting this together. By the looks of it, y'all are already making a big difference, which is awesome.

Yes, absolutely! Use it wherever you like.

I had these saved on my hard drive too … they’re not much but I’ll dump them here in case they’re of use to anyone.

Hi. Soo, your game is super cool, ngl. Really is a vibe (sometimes I like to replay it when I need to chill). I just had a question. You mentioned how the version of 2k3 you used is the legal steam one. But how were you able to get it to do things like menus, controller support, QTE, etc? I took it apart to try and see but its a bit tricky to dig through it all (what with a lot of things being common events on common events on variables) and Ik RPGM2k3 doesn't allow for scripts sooo...

- Asked by dreamwingsthegriffon

Hello! RM2K3 is already built in with partial controller support, and it works when I plug in a PS4 controller with a wire, but not with Bluetooth controllers. So I didn’t do any programming on that end.

QTEs are a bit tricky, and there’s more than one, so I’ll talk about the Swing QTE. A simplified version of it is that the x position of the moving bar is stored in a variable (let’s call this variable ‘Bar X’). In a loop, the program then checks whether the player has pressed the down key. If not, Bar X is increased by 1.

But if the player doesn’t press the down key at all and 'Bar X’ reaches the end of the meter (which, let’s say, has the X coordinate of 300 or something), then the loop is broken! The program then outputs that the player missed.

If the player does press the down key, the loop also breaks - but it checks where Bar X is at before it does. Then it calculates damage accordingly.

For menus, you can check out this list of resources I made about RM2K3!

Hope that helped somewhat. Thank you!

Thank you so much anon! Unfortunately I don’t, sorry - I’d make one but I’m not sure how often I would use it. Here’s some none Grimm’s Hollow stuff I doodled not too long ago, though.
