Haunted Mansion

Welcome to this year's spooky activity, the Haunted Mansion!

How to participate

Now, there's no mansion yet, and it's not spooky either! What's going on? Well, building the spooky interior of the mansion will be your job, of course!

On the right/top, you should see a 3D room that you can rotate a little to get a better view inside it. Currently, it's displaying Hugues' first entry to this activity, which is already setting the right mood and should give you a rough idea of what you can do.

To get started yourself, go ahead and download the template texture, and make it your own!

You have the back and side walls, the ceiling, the floor, the front and four middle textures to work with. The front and the four middle textures can make use of transparency, too!

Not in the mood for pixel art? That's not going to be an issue, either. As long as the texture you use is square, you can increase the resolution as much as you want. You can reduce it, too. The template is 128x128 pixels. Want to go low res? Do 64x64. Want to draw your spooky room by hand? Make that 2048x2048! The size is totally up to you.

Animation

You can now use animated textures, too! GIF will not work, however. If you would like to animate your entry, place your animation frames next to each other horizontally. For example, if you use the template as a base and want to have three frames of animation, your resulting image should be 384x128 pixels in size. Technically, you can have as many frames as you want. The frame delay, however, is fixed at 100 milliseconds. Have fun!

Submitting your entry

When you're ready to submit your room to the mansion, send it to Ennea (Ennea#9999) on Discord. You can also include a name and short description, but you don't have to. Not on our Discord server yet? Don't forget to join!

Want to keep going after submitting your entry? Please do! You can submit as many rooms as you'd like.
