Thank you!

100 CGs?!?!?!  I will pray for you!

I spent an obscene amount of time coding and making the doors for this less-than-a-minute scene. Haha. So yeah, progress is slow but I'm having fun. 

A multiplayer game for yaoijam??? That would be a first! Looking forward to it. 

Congrats on finishing all your CGs!!

That might be why. The game isn't optimised for mobile devices. If you play on a computer or laptop then you'll be able to input your name and continue the game.

You have to I put your chosen name. What device are you playing on? 

Thank you for organising and hosting the bundle!!

It's such a good Gui isn't it!!!

Best of luck!

You are allowed to start working on your game early, as long as it's a new game that hasn't been released before. 

Some of the WIP/placeholder art for my game while I work on the coding. 

This is one of my favourite lines from my game :3 

Love the red and blue aesthetic!

And Backgrounds are the bane of my game dev existence!!! 

Your logo is so pretty! Love it!!

There's some links to BGM in the resources thread if you need some. I like to use pixabay these days :)

The character art is awesome!! Like the aesthetic. 

Riiiiiight?!

So many teeth and biting jokes to be made. My favourite scene from my game so far has got to be this interaction between Lord De Castro (Vampire) and Alexander (Werewolf).

That outline looks crazy!! Good luck

Wooo. I love that you're turning an old fanfic into an original story!! 

Thanks Yuucie!I unfortunately don't use Clip Studio but I've heard it has a lot of resources! 

Here's me trying to work on a fancy-schmancy dining hall background, because after trying to search for a CC asset that matched what I wanted, I only found annoying AI stuff. Grrrrr.

So I'm going to try and draw all the backgrounds myself. Please pray for me. lol.

Welcome to game jams. 

Each jam has different rules about when you can start, so it's always best to ask if unsure. 

Yes, you can start working on your game early if you wish. 

As long as the game as a whole isn't offensive or derogatory. And if it's going to be NSFW please make sure to label it is such and include any content warnings.

Feminine males are allowed as they're identified as male. 

Futanari or intersex is dependant on how the character identifies and/or chooses to present themselves. E.g. if they use she/her pronouns and are primarily female identifying then no. 

The jam has a focus on the queer male experience. 

There is a sequel that has been outlined. I'm just taking a break from it to work on other projects at the moment.

Haha thanks! and no worries, you can be a protagonist if you want. 

The sequel has been outlined, I promise. lol 

He really does. It's outlined, I swear.

Thanks for playing Rognik! 

I don't know if I would consider it canon, but the sabotage route is the first route that I wrote.

As a free game that was made for a game jam, no, there won't be any more updates to this game of the nature that you are pushing for.

A sequel has been outlined that focus' on Jodeci and his potential love interest, Peter is a side character, but it's on hold while I work on other projects. 

At the end of the day, there's too many ideas and not enough time or money to work on everything. 

Hi ChekushTwist

So that's a tough one.  Since itchio updated their rules on games that contain adult content some time ago to prohibit a bunch of stuff, one of which includes bestiality and animal-related content, it would really depend on what kind of game you end up making. And if you want to make it NSFW or commercial then that would probably get it banned from itchio and the jam. 

Your game can be in another language. But it's recommended to have an English version as well so we can double check it fits the yaoi Jam rules.

Can you clarify what you mean by not people?

Great game! Can't wait for the full version :)

Making a game is hard. 

But there are many human-made assets available out there to help you when you get stuck. Here is a list of resources that you could use. Please check the CC and authenticity of the asset you are interested in.

Thank you for all your hard work over the years!

The game lets you customise the MCs name, so you either press enter to continue, or backspace and enter a name you wish to use, then press enter. 

Have fun 😄 

Thank you!
