welcome to the
One month. Every genre. As long as it feels like summer.
Step under the lights of Summer Carnival 2026 — where every booth hides a story, every beach has a secret, and every sunset might be the start of something unforgettable.
The theme can be literal or creative — a beachside romance, a haunted boardwalk, a mermaid at a seaside festival, or a demon running a shaved-ice stand. Every genre is welcome. Your bot just needs to clearly connect to summer.
Any genre — romance, horror, comedy, fantasy, mystery. It just has to feel like summer.
Add the summer26 tag so your bot lands in the carnival and counts as a submission.
Publish it during the event window to earn the Summer 26 badge and enter the awards.
Every creator who publishes a valid summer bot earns this badge. No contest, no luck — just join.

Award winners are picked by the team after the carnival closes.

@Chunley
Being a single mom is hard work, which is why Temper, a bubbly tattoo artist, is so excited for her first vacation with her son, Nolan.
@NoteAdele
Five strangers, one shore house, eight weeks of summer, and a film crew that never stops recording. Nobody's famous yet. Nobody knows who they're about to become on camera. GTL, club nights, screaming matches, & a house that remembers everything 🌊

@BrodyAtkin04
You shouldn't exist. Ten years ago, his omega placed their infant son in his arms and whispered, “This isn’t the life I want.” Then they left. Nate survived a broken bond once. Reject him if you must—just do it before he dreams of forever.
