A kinetic novel is fine as long as it's still a VN!

Feel free to!

Sorry for the late response, this one slipped under my radar. Yes it is!

Hello! Sorry for the very late response.  I no longer have the drive where I uploaded it, but feel free to use either of these!

You can submit both as long as they apply!

I'm running a poll on twitter as well for a possible deadline extension to the tenth!  https://x.com/Siyokoy_/status/1849438246826389783

Hello! that was en error on my part when editing a few things I think. It is due on the 1st! Let me go change it.

Sure!

Robots don't count unless it's a sort of monstrous human robot amalgamation etc. etc.

There's no theme restriction! As long as your game contains a monster LI and is romantic in nature, then you're free to do whatever. 🌹

Hello! There is no Discord server for this jam as I'll find it hard to manage on top of my academic life. If you wish to look for people to partner up with for this jam I can suggest looking at the DevTalk server! ( https://discord.gg/devtalk )

Hello! Sorry for the late response, have as many as you want!

Either way they're accepted dude just have at it.

Daz3d is allowed! Erotic scenes are also allowed but please be careful to tag your content as mature or else it will be taken off the submissions.

Yes it is allowed!

Hello! Ranking is an entirely different thing to take care of that I know I won't have time to coordinate as the jam runner. Also, it's completely antithetical to how the jam is structured as the point of Monstrous Desires it to simply get more monster-based romance VNs out there. Ranking this may also put completely new solo devs up against teams who've already coordinated across multiple jams and I want that to be something people are aware of going into this instead of finding out midway that this detail about the jam changed!

Nope! As stated in the description, this is an unranked jam.

Yes! It's completely fine and in fact even encouraged.

You should be able to, but you may find some difficulties if you don't know what you're doing yet.

I encourage mostly monstrous creatures but demihumans are allowed!

Any game engine is fine! 

That works fine!

Thank you so much!!!

Based.

I'm hoping to write one in the future with one of my friends! Unfortunately it'll be a rather large undertaking as a sequel would veer very fast into action which I'm not good at.

Thank you so much!

As you should <3
It's a two pov story for a reason.

Wipes your tears

Hi Edge!!! Yes I suggest getting both chapters down as this is a romance based jam.

Hello! Yes, according to the rules you're free to start on your project before the jam period and just submit it once it's open.

Thanks? Just for reference, though: I'm Asian, as in a Southeast Asian currently living in Southeast Asia. A lot of this game is based on the culture of my country, and I would prefer it if it wasn't labelled as western just because the language spoken is English.

As long as it's still recognizable as a VN and is still story-heavy then it should be fine!

Please direct your jam questions here!

Hello! The terms might be wrong since I can't go on the pc to double-check atm, but you'll have to change the textbox PNG image to be wider. After that, in the game code go to gui.rpy and search for textbox width. Change the number to the dimensions of your wider textbox image. ✌️

You'll have to manually resize the image and then change the sizing in GUI.rpy to fit the new dimensions!

Thank you so much Chim I'm glad you liked it 🥹🥹🥹

Hello! That's probably an issue with the assets not loading in for the web build! You can try either reloading the page or downloading the game.

The one on the right is the guide!!! He's my little guy :)
