I understand that, but the problem is that no one has been developing any C++ opensource engines. There are a number of great C++ projects, but their engines and source code is all kept secret as if they are game companies that will get money from the engines.

I love to make quick programming contests, but you should also keep in mind that for quick programming contests you often need to offer a base program that people can work with.

The second reason I am offering that idea, is to get people interested and thus getting more speed in the development and finishing it sooner. In order to start projects that more people are interested in, like making a complete game or even starting a C++ engine.

I'm here for the Bacon Reputation: +4/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 602	I think indie games should be allowed, just not let them overshadow the zelda games. maybe hand a few awards out for indie games as well? z3 was just something coined after e3 (like stated earlier) so it really has no significance as being zelda only, i mean look at the site, we even have a section for games not related to zelda.

Reputation: +2/-1 Offline Gender: Posts: 2376	well, we could always add two extra weeks, the normal z3 lasting two weeks but with pure zelda related stuff, after the two weeks another z3 with pure indie games, or the other way around, first indie games and stuff and then zelda stuff. Logged

Reputation: +8/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 6604	z3 should be a mostly Zelda event, non-Zelda stuff will be accommodated though. Allocating equal time to both undermines that or drags on the event too much; and the turn-out for non-Zelda games will likely be less. For the event, non-Zelda games and engines would be dispersed such that the Zelda projects still outnumbered them more than 2 to 1 each day. Logged

That could be a possibility, although the attention those older topics get would get inhibited by the posting of at least 2 or 3 new topics. I see what you're saying though in that the topics posted last would have the least time to be seen. There could be a week of staggered release and then a week set aside for viewing. The way in which the staggering is done could be also such that it was every other day or something too. I don't know. I guess either way certain topics will lose attention - be it staggered or mass release.

Who's your favorite possum? Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 1378	I remember, at one point we talked about including fan fiction and other "projects" that were not necessarily game-intensive. I'm not sure if there's much of a base for that here, but it might be a recruiting opportunity. An application-form is a must, in my opinion. When people have to fill something out, it at least improves how they look at their presentations. Logged
