It's been quite some time from the last spell contest, so... here's a sequel!
SPELL CONTEST #2
from 15th of February to 1st of March
that's 2 weeks, still, as usual.
THEME:
FORBIDDEN ARTS
from 15th of February to 1st of March
that's 2 weeks, still, as usual.
THEME:
FORBIDDEN ARTS
Now, the theme might be a little bit confusing, so I'll list the meaning of forbidden, found from internet.
Forbidden - excluded from use or mention; "forbidden fruit"; "a taboo subject"; not allowed;
Something very prohibited, but done anyway in secret. It's up to you how to interpret it – a physical sneaky attack spell or some kind of dark sinister magic ability... It can be a spell that's cast on allies or enemies...
HOW TO JOIN:
We'll consider you "joined" when you have posted a spell in the submission thread.
GRADING:
Grading will be done in three different categories by me, Romek and GooS:
CODING (25 points) (Romek, Andrewgosu)
- Anything code related: how efficient, easy-to-read, leakfree the code is, etc.
JASS will not get you more points
GUI will not get you more points, either
MPI/MUI code will get you more points
APPEARANCE (20 points) (Romek, Andrewgosu, GooS)
- Anything related to the appearance of the spell: the „eye-candy“
Is it tasteful? Overdone? Or just random?
INTANGLIBLES (15 points) (Romek, Andrewgosu, GooS)
- Anything left from the two other categories
Is the spell unique and fun? is the tooltip written nicely and is it explanatory?
RULES:
- vJASS, Jass and GUI are all allowed
- Hybrid-code is not allowed (Converted GUI, pseudo locals)
- Custom script in GUI to remove leaks is allowed
- Imports are not allowed, excluding Vexorians caster model (found in the demo map)
- Attaching systems are allowed
- 1 submission per member, 1 member per submission
- Your spell must be made for this contest. No submitting previous works.
- the spell must be levelable, at least, 3 levels. Though, spells that work for n levels may get more points...
THE PRIZE:
The prize is a lot of reputation points. Plus general acknowledgement, respect...
The exact prize reputation amount: uhm...we'll see.
Anyway, if you have questions, post them here and we'll gladly answer.
Now, get cracking!
