I have to agree with Sai here.

We are not supposed to make a 12 hour game. If you have something that you're working on - you can also throw together a lame ending if time is the additional Pylon you must construct.

Lame joke aside, I'm still working on AIs, bastards don't want to work as I intend them to.

[fruckert]

I have to restart from scratch because of framerate issues.
Yay.

Oh well, now I can make the entire game Kyoobist.

I could make a game if I had known about this IN January. I just now found out about this.

[Prpl_Mage]

You have a whole month to do a short game. Sounds reasonable to me.

[Ben]

quit being a bunch of losers and just make a friggin game. Use public domain resources if you want.
Its quite simple.


Make a game. Make it short. Make it playable and fun. Make it follow the basic principles of a game. Make it not have a turn based combat system.


Prove to me you can make a game from start to finish. I dont care about your stories...unless you have a degree in liturature, chances are your stories suck. I dont care about classes or DPS or magic defense...chances are you dont know alogrithyms well enough to balance those things out.
I do know you have all played a game before that was short and liked it. Do that.


No extensions. Late entries (24 hours late and under) will be accepted, but will lose points.

A month, with school, babysitting, job hunting.
D:
I'll try though.
I though I had like 2 weeks.

[Prpl_Mage]

I know you can do it, you've done an non-turn based game before. So give it a go, put something together and then throw in graphics the last week.

Time to get crackin'

[Ben]

But those games usually had either awesome gameplay mechanics or awesome graphics. I'm trying to create some interesting graphics, but I have no idea how all the animations I'm doing are supposed to be coded into a game. >_>

If you cant muster enough testicles to enter, then don't enter. There are no prizes for excuses.

Mine's pretty sick. 100% everything has been drawn by me. The battle system is really cool. It's
like a dancing card fighting game thing all intertwined into one with voice acting and a storyline
involving Kim Jong-Il!

I just realized Spring Break starts for me this weekend.  Looks like I'm going to able to enter this for sure.  I tried Stencyl, but I don't think I've got enough of a grasp on it to use it yet.

I am disgusted, but at the same time intrigued...

[zuhane]

I have a strange question. I've basically been working my face off on Quasigen Island at the moment
making the first dungeon. Since the battle system involves real-time elements and is 100% customly
built, would it be possible to use this dungeon with a few battles in the contest. The events are sequenced
meaning no random encounters, and the battles are quick and sharp! I'll even have it so you don't level up,
but more or less get the game showcased a little bit. Would that be alright?

[fruckert]

I feel so terrible about this.
3 goddamn games I tried to make.
All of them failed in one manner or another.

I'm tryin'.  Unfortunately, my break was less than productive.  Here is to bringing my laptop to classes to work on it!
