It’s a 48 hour competition next weekend (august 15-16th). You can use any engine or tool you’d like, including RPG maker, and probably also including the older versions of the program. Make a post over there if you’re interested in joining the competition!

The last competition rpgDX ran spawned the neato Linear RPG game. You basically walk in a line until the next point in the story, gaining experience/damage as you walk around. Surprisingly addictive!

There are no prizes other than bragging rights. And you’ll also have to compete against us, the folks running this Rpg Maker VX blog. Luckily for you though… our game will probably suck! :D
