2019 Ryuutama Holiday Scenarios

Another holiday contest just wrapped up in 2019. Here are all the entries, in one single PDF document!

2018 Ryuutama Halloweeen Scenarios

As translator supreme ennui-san LOVES Halloween-themed scenarios, he put together a contest for Ryuutama in 2018 (mainly as an excuse to award lots of Ryuutama-themed prizes to people). We received a wide selection of submissions, so many excellent ideas that we all stayed up late pondering which three were the most exemplary of “Ryuutama and Halloween”.

Here is the collection of just the three winning scenarios: Everfall, All Souls’ Night and Corn Daze. It is a ZIP bundle of 3 PDFs, plus a PDF introduction and explanation of the contest.

Here is the full collection of all scenarios (including the winning scenarios) submitted to the contest, plus the PDF introduction (13MB).
