Title: Nominations - March 2010
Post by: 4Sword on March 27, 2010, 08:19:37 am
If something gets nominated and I don't put it into the poll within a day, assuming that there are at least 2 projects at that point so that a poll can be put up at all, please make sure I know - I'll try and be more observant than last month too. Same as ever - if you nominate a project you have to at least 3 sentences saying why, if you vote for a project you then just need 1 sentence, and a user cannot nominate their own project but they can vote for it.

I would like to nominate the following projects.

Xfixium's OOT2D:
First of all I think he got a disadvantage last month for being nominated but not added to the poll. But in the beginning of this month he released some new screens, showing a wicked menu screen. Which surprised me, because I didn't know that they had chosen Q and E for respective L and R. It is also a refreshing game, the only one that is currently using FSA graphics at the moment and using both top-down and side view. Overall it is still one of the best games out there.


Drandula's The legend of Zelda 3D Flying Rooster:
The only 3D game that is actually showing any progress. In the beginning of the month, Drandula revived the project by showing some bad ass screens of the hookshot he implemented. Somewhat later he gave some more candy in the form of a video, which resulted in a lot of replies. Finally he has also started a story for the game, which has a lot of potential and shows much promise into making it an enjoyable game.

FrozenFire's TLoZ: Spirit's Quest
There might not be much to show right now, but I think this project has a lot of potential. It's an interesting mix of Cave Story and Zelda, which IMO should be great in practice. And it's just awesome.

SURFACE! *shot*

Seriously though, I gotta agree with Darklight on this; Spirit's Quest all the way.

Hopefully I'm not choosing the one that will lose for the third month in a row...

I second this.

I updated the poll with the three currently nominated projects. I can't really figure out yet which one to vote for because they all have merit though.
Title: Re: Nominations - March 2010
Post by: Mirby on March 27, 2010, 06:50:41 pm
They do! But I got the first vote in! Spirit's Quest, because it has a new, unique graphical style compared to other fan games, and it looks like fun!

I nominate Spirit Mythes: The Deku Project because Random is an hero and doesn't afraid to anything.

For a project to be nominated, you need to give at least 3 sentences in support of it.

I like you 4Sword, so shut the !@#$% up and learn to internet, because I know the world and there's nothing that you can smoke without enjoying how much you suck at life.

I nominate Spirit Mythes becus it asks lots of qwestions fur sprites. Lots of qwestuns for sprites must meen progrerss is going smoothly. It also has a cool story. Also has lots of threds in develpmint bords, so its hard not 2 luv it. Also has a support bannor thats swete.


Also I second the nomination for FF's project, just because I love sidescrolling zelda.

Also I undo any nominations for Surface, simply because progress updates aren't done on ZFGC anymore :p

I votes for OoT2D because I like where X takes things. He creates pretty awesome graphics and concepts. (Sentence #3): Also, X has been busy with life, and has been sick, and he takes the time to work on the project even then...

For this month, he's been really doing most of the work.

Flying Rooster has had a good month, with a lot of time spent on story though. And Spirit's Quest has been very interesting to watch, but I'd like to see more content from Spirit's Quest before a Game of the Month (and probably will, considering the pace it's going at). OoT2D though has been consistently improving, and it seems that a lot of time is probably being spent on developing a solid foundation for the code, which is nice to see. I vote OoT2D.

I agree completely. In all honesty, I would also like to have a little more content to show for Spirit's Quest. I was a little surprised when it was nominated. I really think OoT2D deserves to get PotM this time around.

Because I voted for OoT2D... Mirby, I must say that I am sorry that I'm not helping here. D: I just have too much love for OoT2D. In fact, it's made me feel a little nostalgic, which has made me play a bit of the original OoT lately (when Win7 was installing, :p) and it has been very relaxing and enjoyable.

Meh, I'm having bad luck here at ZFGC lately anyways. Nothing's going right.

And what's up with the comical spelling of my name?  :P

Just because I could. XD

What I'm wondering is, why do we only have 11 votes?
Title: Re: Nominations - March 2010
Post by: Mamoruanime on March 31, 2010, 07:29:05 am
I'm voting OoT2d. It's mainly because I love the idea of reimagining a game, and even developing under certain technological constraints (namely 2 dimensions vs 3) to produce something enjoyable. It will probably get my vote 100% of the time :P

If I hadn't voted for it, I would be torn between Flying Rooster and Spirit's Quest. Both games are promising in their own right.

Some of those votes don't count because reasons were not given for some of them. But yeah, turnout is kind of sad. I'll vote maybe later today.
Title: Re: Nominations - March 2010
Post by: Xfixium on March 31, 2010, 06:32:12 pm
I vote The Legend of Zelda: Spirit's Quest. I love the concept behind it, and also the graphical style. Looks like it could be really fun to play. I also would like to keep seeing fresh projects win POTM.

Xfixium, you only voted for Spirit's Quest because you didn't want to be biased!
Mammy, you only voted for OoT2D because there's actually hope for a Demo 4!

Um, you don't know Xfixium very well.

I'm going for OOT2D, why?  it is the best one I've ever seen, and by the looks of it, it's progress has exceeded a bit unlike other OOT2Ds.  Plus the textures, it gives this OOT2d by Xfix a push.
Title: Re: Nominations - March 2010
Post by: 4Sword on April 01, 2010, 06:20:14 am
Alright, the vote totals are:
where the number in parenthesis is votes made, the other number is votes with reasons counted

LoZ: OoT2D - 7 ( 8 )
LoZ: Flying Rooster - 0 ( 1 )
LoZ: Spirit's Quest - 3 ( 5 )
Spirit Mythes: The Deku Prophet - 0 ( 0 )

So OoT2D wins. I'm assuming that all team members are:
Quote
Xfixium
Cypras
Ethelon
TomPel
Mamoruanime
DJvenom
noseblunt3
SinkinDevil

Although I am not totally sure and could use some confirmation.

Assuming being awake around 4 AM again hasn't messed up my head, for everyone in that list I gave profile awards.

Sweet although I was completely unable to deliver on any of the tasks that I was going to do for that particular game XD

I dunno if they even consider me staff since I haven't actually contributed anything yet :p (though I still want to work on dodongo's cavern <_< I need a new PC to work from first though)

We still do. We know you have been busy with surface and other things. Besides Dodongo's cavern can wait at the moment.

For the third month in a row... I VOTED FOR A PROJECT THAT LOST! OH WOE *_*

Actually, I don't really care. Congrats to OoT2D!
