Jake Parker created Inktober in 2009 as a challenge to improve his inking art skills and develop positive drawing habits. It has since grown into a worldwide endeavor with thousands of artists taking on the challenge every year.

October's here, and we decided to run our own version of the challenge.

31 Days - 31 Maps!

Maptober Rules

1) Make a map in Inkarnate according to the theme of the daily prompt
2) Share it on social media, or our discord server in the ⁠🖼map-gallery channel with the tag EVENTS)
3) Use the hashtags #maptober and #maptober2025 for social media posts
4) Repeat!

You can do that daily, every other day, or even once a week. Just try to be consistent with it. Maptober is a challenge for improving your Inkarnate skills.
 
We are looking forward to seeing your maps!

Also, here's the schedule for Inkarnate streams this October. 🎥
