「GAME OVER」 is a multi-fandom collection of fanart and fanfiction made by different users to celebrate their favourite BL visual novel titles.

The works in this collab are all connected with the theme of “bad ends” (or rather, “endings other than good ends”), celebrating the way visual novels, as a medium, allow for a variety of different ending types in a way a regular novel can not.

The final product of this collab. has been presented in the form of an online anthology, with over 50 pages art and writing covering 15 different BLVNs.

We advertised sign-ups here before, but our second BLVN fanwork e-zine project has now been completed! We hope those of you who didn’t take part in it can enjoy looking through it too!

#(Realises we forgot to reblog here a week later...)#(We should really come up with a centralised blog for all these things huh.)#(Puts that down on to-do list.)#(Just like hanazono there are lots of works for lots of different games so please check them all out!)#(Maybe you'll find a new game you haven't played before~)

In this project, we aimed to put together a set of the Major Arcana tarot cards, with each card featuring the protagonists of a different BL visual novel.

The result was a full deck of 22 cards each featuring a unique BL visual novel protagonist, with over 20 artists contributing.

Click here to view all the cards in full as a pdf

The artists have all put a lot of thought into the means of representing their chosen character in relation to their card, so we’ve provided a brief description of the cards’ intended meanings next to each piece in the above pdf for your appreciation.

We hope everyone will enjoy looking through all the different cards!

Huge thank you to everyone who took part! Without your efforts, we never would have been able to make this collab happen! Apologies for making some of you wait so long to see the result.

#DRAMAtical Murder #Gakuen Heaven #Lamento #Sweet Pool #BL game #hanazonocollab #(Those are the series with the highest number of submissions so those are the ones we'll tag.)#(However there are a lot more! Some other well-known games and some less so.)#(Please enjoy the variety of content~ And you never know. Maybe something you haven't played before will catch your eye.)

*sending much love and "you are awesome" to all participants* I'm so excited, cannot wait to see what everyone's done ♥️💞

And the same from we who are organising this as well! All the entries we’ve seen have been amazing, and we can’t wait to share them all properly with everyone~

(Still waiting on the last few responses to that form we posted the other day, and that combined with real life obligations for the person doing most of the hard work putting stuff together means we can’t give you a certain release date yet, but please know that we’re currently doing our best working on it to give the best possible result!)

#hanazonocollab #sapphosigns #Answers #(I say ''we'' even though I'm the useless mod who doesn't have the right software to do anything helpful...)#(I'm moral support I guess.)#(And provider of BL flower screenshots.)#(On that note we never did have a ''guess what games the flowers in the banner are from'' contest. Shame. Bit late now though huh.)#(I guess we could start that now to pass the time while waiting for the final collab to be posted. So go ahead if you want to try guessing.)#(Some of them might be pretty difficult~)

Important notice to all who are taking part in the collab!

For those of you who have already submitted, thank you for all your hard work. We’re not sure yet exactly when we’ll be releasing the completed collab. (due to the couple of missing submissions and the time it will take to compile everything), but hopefully within a week or so.

Until then, we just want to confirm everyone’s details will be credited as they wish in the final compilation, so:

Could everyone who has submitted something for the collab. please fill in the following form to make sure all your details etc. are as you want them to be.

Please see the link for particular details, and feel free to contact us via this blog’s ask box if you have any further questions.

Thank you very much for taking part. All the submissions we’ve received have been wonderful, and we’re looking forward to sharing them all with you.

#hanazonocollab

The due date for those who were given extensions has now passed!

Could those of you who have not yet submitted your piece please get in contact with us as soon as possible, else we will have to assume you no longer wish to take part.

#hanazonocollab #(Also if you think you have submitted but haven't heard a response back then that probably means we didn't get it so please resend it.)

Less than a week now until the entries are due in!

All the check-in messages have been sent out via either tumblr inbox, email or the mods’ twitters - please make sure you take the time to reply to these, so we know whether you’re going ok with time and if you’d still happy to participate in this! There’re a couple of participants we haven’t heard back from, so don’t forget to check your inboxes. If you haven’t received a check-in message, please let us know.

On that note, if you’re reading this and you believe you’ve placed an entry, but have not received a confirmation message, and/or you cannot find yourself in the planned entries section, please get in touch with us ASAP.

A few have enquired about getting an extension - if this applies to you, you now have until SUNDAY, MARCH 12TH (24:00 AEST) to continue working on your entries.

For everyone who hasn’t asked for an extension, the due date remains as SUNDAY, MARCH 5TH (24:00 AEST).

Ultimately, we’d like this collaboration to run as smoothly as possible and be a positive experience for all, and we really appreciate your help with that! If you have any other issues and questions, feel free to send a message via this blog’s ask box.

Good luck~

#hanazonocollab

can I upload my drawing to deviantArt stash? no one will know what I upload in the stash except I give them the link to it

Yes, that’s fine.

What we listed on the info. page were just examples. You’re welcome to send it in whatever way suits you best, just as long as it doesn’t compress the file and spoil your artwork.

#Anonymous #Answers #(...I'm assuming you meant this in relation to submitting your piece.)

are we allowed to do like multiple fandoms tho

You're welcome to make multiple submissions for multiple games, if you wish. Please see the guidelines page for details.

Crossovers aren't allowed, though, if that's what you meant.

#Anonymous #Answers

Just a reminder that you have just under three more weeks to complete your entries for this collab! (Though if you think you’ll need an extension, please let us know and we’ll try to organise something.)

For those who aren’t aware, this is a collab. project which brings together BLVN fans to create a multi-fandom collection of fanart and fanfiction made by different users to celebrate their favourite titles, all connected with the theme of “flowers.”

For more information about the format and how you can take part, please see this page.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to send a message via this blog’s ask box.

#(Since it's Valentine's Day it seemed like a good day to post a reminder~)#hanazonocollab #BL Game #(Not going to tag anything specific this time. But as usual reblogs are appreciated. So more people can see and get involved.)

so if we have a submission for one game do we email or submit and state the game and ship in that submission/email? I have at least one ready to submit, but I want to do something for two other games if I can.

People have mostly been submitting the game/ship name before they start their entry, so we know what to expect, but if you’ve already finished something without saying then you can submit them together.

(That said, though, since I’m answering publicly, we’d rather everyone let us know if they’re taking part sooner rather than later. Note that there is a final date for sign-ups.)

Also, the maximum number of entries to start off is two per person, so if you want to sign up for one more on top of the one you’ve finished you can, but not two more. The maximum might be increased once you’ve finished and submitted both of the initial two.

#sapphosigns #Answers #(I'm assuming the one you have ready to submit now was made for the collab. and not just something you finished a while back that fits the #theme.)#(Because we'd really prefer people didn't just reuse old stuff for this.)#(But if it's just that you never got around to signing up in advance then it's fine.)

Greetings~ thank you for making this collab. For fics, do you need all to be 1500 words (roughly) or is that the limit? (Are drabbles acceptable?)

1500 words is the (approximate) maximum for fics, but there’s no minimum word count, so feel free to make it whatever length you want. Same goes for fic + art combo entries.

#sapphosigns #Answers #(Sorry for not being clear on the info page.)#(I’ve changed it now to make it more obvious.)#(So basically even just a couple of lines is fine.)

Is it fine to pick a non-BL pairing, as long as it's from a BL game? For example, a male character and a character who does not have a specific gender in canon?

Yep, that’s completely fine too! The theme of the collab. is BLVNs, but not necessarily BL pairings, so you’re free to choose any sort of pairing you want.

#Anonymous #Answers

hi there! is it okay if the artist wish to be anonymous when entries are published publicly? (sorry if this question is a bit obscure aaa

If that’s what you want, then sure.

I mean, we want everyone taking part to receive proper credit for what they create, but if you want to stay anonymous then we’ll respect that.

#(Just list your name as ''anonymous'' in the credits or something instead of putting a username link.)#(So if you want something like this then just let us know when you sign up!)#Anonymous #Answers

Quick question regarding submitting artwork. Could we upload it to Google Drive and submit the private link?

That’s completely ok.

I just listed the first examples that came to mind in the info. post, but you’re free to send it in whatever way suits you best, just as long as it doesn’t compress the file and spoil your artwork.

#(We also have an actual e-mail address now which I've added under the ''how to submit'' section in case anyone wants to use that.)#Anonymous #Answers
