\r\n\r\nAbout The Theme:
\r\nYour challenge is to create a game exploring the theme of Beyond Expectations. Whether you’re putting players in situations where they must exceed their perceived limits, telling a story of unprecedented achievement, or creating innovative mechanics that challenge conventional wisdom, the possibilities are endless. Will your players shatter boundaries, help others achieve the impossible, or discover that they’re capable of far more than they ever imagined?

\r\n\r\nFor anyone who would like to participate but doesn\u2019t currently own one of the supported engines, don\u2019t worry! Currently a special free trial version of RPG MAKER UNITE is available for download at the link provided below! We\u2019re looking forward to seeing what everyone creates!
