RPG Stories News

🚨CONTEST ALERT 🚨

We are doing a new Kickstarter campaign on November 21st to showcase to newcomers what RPG Stories can do, giving 101 Battle Maps in 2D.
These maps will be accompanied by .rpgs files for those who wish to use them directly in RPG stories or create their unique maps based on ours.😊

Now, the reason we called it 101 Battle Maps is because we made 100 maps and we want one member of our community to do this +1 special map!

Anyone can participate in this contest and the winner will get:

1. Their map will be the +1 map.
   
2. This +1 map will be credited either with your name or any brand you choose.
   
3. You will get all the rewards of this campaign (101 2D Battle Maps, the .rpgs files, all 101 maps in sunset style and night style, and the video cinematic loops for each map+ 1 GM Version Steam key).
   

To participate you have to:

• Create 1 battle map and upload your screenshot in 2D-top view in this form: https://forms.gle/2fm6g6b2igcP6amd9
• Each member can submit only 1 map.
  
• This map can be Fantasy, Modern, Sci-fi or even a combination of those. Feel free to create any crazy thing you like!
  
• Upload your Battle Map on our Steam Artwork community hub: https://steamcommunity.com/app/2105600/images/ with the title "101 Battlemaps Contest" and share it with our Steam community.
  
• Join our discord server and vote! Brave Alice Discord Server

We will be gathering all maps and by the 5th of December all our discord members will get the chance to vote for the winner (we the devs will be voting as well ːsteamhappyː ).

P.S. 1 This is an example in case you need a reference. (Reminder: with the hotkey "T" you can go to the perfect top view).
P.S. 2 Feel free to spread the word and ask your friends who own RPG Stories to submit their Battle Map and join our discord server to participate in this contest.

With this release we bring multiplayer only to the GM version but our next update will be solely focused on completing the players version and finally share Your Stories with everyone.

After that things will only get better! With more frequent updates and the with community on our side to guide us about future features and the overall direction of the RPGS.
