Ruleset(s): Unique Rules Unique Rules: I think the wordcount minimum equivalent for this needs to be bigger than 1k simply because of all of the work involved and because a dress up game without several dress up options doesn't make any sense. I think a minimum of 3k equivalent would be about right for an acceptable but not very complex dress up game:
- 500 words for the effort involved in sorting out all the individual parts and getting them up on the website of the artist's choosing in a manner that can be used as a dress up game* - 500 words for the base/mannequin of the character being dressed up - 250 words for each unique (no recolors) clothing piece, hair style, accessory, etc. for a minimum of at least 8 unique dress up items. - 500 words for a detailed background, but this is optional and the dress up game still needs at least 8 items, so a dress up game with detailed background would wind up 3500 words minimum.
* Like the Twine ruleset, it would probably make sense to give a full 1k of credit for dress up games that are otherwise worth 5k+, since the more pieces you have to wrangle the harder it is.
What is it: Online dress-up games are a style of online game where the player gets to select clothing, hair styles, background images, etc from a selection of premade assets to make their own picture. Most people will probably be familiar with picrew, a Japanese site that allows users to make their own dress up games for others to play.
I would like this opt-in medium tag to cover picrew, meiker.io, and any other website that lets people upload their own art to turn it into a dress up game — I think the artist should get to pick the site, since picrew is in Japanese and meiker.io requires .PSD files. I also found what looks like a good tutorial for coding a dress up game from scratch in html/css/javascript. I realize that interactive fiction lets people specify twine vs not twine but I don't think people have, uh, gifted enough dress up games in exchanges for us to need that option?
Other Info: I would definitely welcome input from other artists about the minimums and stuff! Also I haven't specifically looked for this info but I suspect that making an erotic dress up game on picrew/meiker.io might be against the terms of service...
Finally we might also want to think about extra/different credit for: - multiple backgrounds - items in multiple colors (eg, the same hair style but several colors, the same base but a variety of skin tones) - multiple bases/poses - dress up games with two characters
