> Yes, it was meant to you and Uber.
I decline. Uber's free to marry you though.

> What do you think would be more fun an keyboard controlled game or an artillery game?
'Artillery Game' being..?

'Artillery Game' being..?

like worms (3d or 4).. if you ever played it.

 

[Bloodcount]

Ok I give you 5 more hours to prapare and then I start mapping.

 

[Romek]

> like worms (3d or 4).. if you ever played it.
I thought so.
It's virtually impossible to compare a keyboard controlled game with an artillery game. One is a form of input, and the other is a game genre.

 

[Nherwyziant]

Cool, i'll start making a map tomorrow. I totally got an great idea but I don't think I can still make it to finish the map but i'll try my best. Good luck.

 

[Bloodcount]

should we post screenshots here or in the submission's thread ?

 

[Romek]

WIP screenshots go here.
Your final submission goes in the submissions thread.

Screenshots of your final submission go in the submissions thread once you've submitted.
Basically, as long a there's a map in the submissions thread; do what you want with the post.

Geez I'd love to participate... But I really have no idea about what kind of minigame I could make...

Same here. I think I'll just be a spectater for this one

 

[Moridin]

I wonder....for this contest could you have a map with different modes? I dunno if that would still count as one minigame or many minigames depending on the mode choice...

 

[Romek]

> I wonder....for this contest could you have a map with different modes?
It should be fine.

> I dunno if that would still count as one minigame or many minigames depending on the mode choice...
As long as it's not a selection of minigames.

'Modes' such as "number of enemies" or "time" are fine.
Different objectives aren't, I guess.

Yes, I know, just terrain, but you will have to wait a bit in order to see the actual gameplay.

 

[Romek]

Yeah, Spoilers don't actually hide things in this forum. Please use links instead of s please.

Bloodcount, those images take decades to load. Could use a better image-hosting site please? :P

 

[Bloodcount]

I will. gameplay screenshots coming soon!

 

[UndeadDragon]

That site takes forever to load. I gave up

Why does the contest end 7 days after Halloween has come and passed?
Is 3 weeks really necessary?

Yes.

 

[Romek]

> Why does the contest end 7 days after Halloween has come and passed?
I picked the theme 'Halloween' because the contest is ran at around the time of Halloween, not because it'd end on Halloween.

> Is 3 weeks really necessary?
Yes.

 

[WastedSavior]

Yes.

Yes.

25 days seems like an awfully long time for just a mini game.
I suppose I'll just have to wait patiently.
Im looking forward to see all the submissions

 

[Bloodcount]

Dude, we don't have 25 days to do mapping 24/7

Most of us have personal lifes and we don't have more then 3-4 hours per week to map. You know what I mean
