Dear creators!
I'm very impressed by the screenshots of this contest.
I'm currently writing a scientific paper about the dark engine, dromed and why creators still make games with it.
Please check out my thread (

Thanks!

Yandros, how many contestants do we have (potentially including those who contacted you via PM)? I think we are definitely going to have more than 10 missions released.

Between this thread, PMs and Discord I count 13 different authors with missions in the works. No doubt there are others of whom I'm not aware, but it's also unlikely they will all get released. I would say if we get 10 or more, we're doing well.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, all you Dromed Gods!!
If the missions coming out of this contest are anything like the incredible series that resulted from the Thief 1 20 year contest, we will see more of the fantastic and stunning creations that our creative community has been able to produce, likely to be some of the highest pinnacles of creative endeavor ever seen in Thief.
Alas! I am not a creator of Thief goodness, but I am an extremely grateful consumer and player, in awe of those who can massage Dromed into worlds of wonder.
No other gaming community out there can hold a candle to the dedicated wizards of Thiefery!
May the Builder guide you all!

Three months left. I haven't played Thief 2 since 2011 but I will reinstall the game to play the missions from this contest.

Wait until March 24th, 2020 - the contest is still running. See the first post of this thread for more details.

How many missions can we look forward to ?

Last I heard, it was up close to 20 possible missions.

My current count is around 15 possible authors, but there are likely some I don't know about and others who won't make the deadline.
