I'm curious if there'd be any interest in a challenge for the month of October for any RPG labber to create a Halloween-themed RPG. It doesn't have to specifically be about Halloween, but should be about the undead, witchcraft, or something else that would relate to Halloween. For instance, I have an idea for an RPG that would be about the Mafia versus vampires, what with vampires being quite appropriate for Halloween. I would politely request that we refrain from zombie RPGs, as we have quite a bit of those available at 1km1kt and RPG Laboratory.
Any takers? I haven't started the challenge yet, as I'd like to see if there is a general interest in doing this. Challenges like this can be a fun way to test your RPG-making skills and come up with new RPGs you may not have thought up before. This challenge will be to make a Halloween-themed RPG by October 31st, one you will submit either as a pdf file, a blog, or a e-book here at RPG Lab. Preferably, it'd be cool to have submissions in pdf form available for download in a blog here (note that there is a 1MB size limit for what you can upload here), preferably with artwork, as there is a ton of free Halloween clipart out on the internet. Just do a search of "free clipart Halloween", and you will find quite a few sites with free clipart to use, as long as you make note of who supplied the art freely for your RPG.
Depending on response to this blog, I will either start the challenge a little later this week or not at all. I'm guessing it will probably be a go in a few days, but I'll wait and see for now.
