Thanks!

Hello taffers.
This 1st (of hopefully many) Thief Speedbuilding Jam is all about creating a mission from scratch in two months. This is not a competition, meaning there is no ranking at the end. However, there is a catch: there are six guiding themes you must choose from when making your mission. You can choose any amount of themes to mix and match among these six to make your mission; it is entirely possible to choose just one of these themes, or all six if you wish. There are many themes to choose from in my list, but for this first edition I picked rather conventional ones.
These six themes are:
Here's some additional info:Gaudy
Slum
Gem
Merchant
Cursed
Isolated
- You can make your mission for any game (T1, T2, TDS and TDM).
- There are no restrictions in terms of resources.
- Team efforts are allowed.
- There is no real way to verify and this isn't a competition, but it's in the best interest of this event if your mission is made from scratch.
- The timelimit is mostly here for motivated taffers, it's OK if you release it after the deadline. It'd only mean the next Jam would be live if this one is successful enough.
- You can simply release your mission at any time during these two months, you may use a tag on your release thread, such as "Jam 1". You can always send your mission to me if you wish to release it anonymously (through PM, mail: skacky2002[at]yahoo[dot]fr or through Discord).
Deadline: December 1st, 2024 23:59:59 PT
Happy jamming!

Ok, so you want an FM about a Cursed Merchant Isolated in Slum for a Gaudy Gem?
I think the point is that they are intentionally vague so that you have to perform your own interpretation as part of working them into your mission.Originally Posted by Marzec
Yandros is correct, you may interpret these themes as you wish.
where is the "distance/travel theme?
This sounds fun. A good time for beginners to get a small mission out the door (two months isn't long though, so try to keep that ambition in check). Also a good opportunity for some of the vets to come up with something strange/weird/experimental. Anxious to see what everyone comes up with.
It went for a walk and got lost.
Declaring that I'll make an FM
Can't wait to see what you'll craft!
2 months build contest, ahh i see. its maybe a good thing to shut down some projetcs and focus on a new FM.
i too am making something for this. will i finish by the deadline? i dont know. but its about time i actually finish an fm, huh.
Considering the activity on the dromed discord server since it was announced, this jam will need it's bread when it hits!
Very nice!! Can´t wait for your missions guys!!
Slum/Cursed is my Theme for the Contest FM. A small FM in style of Rocksbourg and Partytime.
That looks very promising!Slum/Cursed is my Theme for the Contest FM. A small FM in style of Rocksbourg and Partytime.
I should have something small and Mechanist-themed for this jam.
So as Im getting closer to being able to beta test my current WIP for the speedbuild jam, I thought I would post a shot, enjoy -
Here are two screenshots of an upcoming mission for the jam, made by two anonymous authors.
Someone needs a betatester???
There're angels who playThief and angels who don't ........ both go to heaven ............

i hope there are some Isolated fan missions out of the 6 on list i feel that is one i like best
How many missions didn’t make the deadline and will be released soon?
