General Rules


Prizes
None. The prize is getting recognition from the community. Not to mention vote rigging and such in previous contests has left us not wanting to do any monetary prizes.


Description
Right guys, I'm sure you know the deal by now. This contest is pretty similar to the one we had last time, the basic idea is that you are given 2 weeks to work on a game development project, the best project after those two weeks is the winner. The project has to be a remake of another game, it can be anything from pong to pokemon, its entirely your choice. Your remake does not have to be a direct pixel-for-pixel recreation of the original, you can add new mechanics and new ideas to it, but the basic game has to be recognizable as the one you are remaking.


What can I do before the start?
If you have come up with an idea for your entry and you want to get working on it before the start of the contest, please only do work on gather/creating assets and such. Actual programming and development should not take places before the start date, to give all teams a fair chance.


I WANT TO ENTER!?
Post in this topic with the game you are thinking of recreating and we will sign you up. You can then spend the time until the start date deciding how you are going to do your project and gathering any resources neccessary for it. However if you don't intend to complete the project by the finish date, please don't enter, we want some real competition :).

Do you think a week is long enough to keep registration open for? Or should I extend it a bit further?
Title: Re: Contest #9: Game Development V2

Alright, sign me up but I may not be able to make a game

Deadlines for registration for contests related to development are a little unnecessary so long that the time to do the development is sufficient. In other words, if anyone could get their project in on time that would be fine; having a deadline on registration might rush people into participation when their chances of actually finishing their entry would be small.

Conversely those more able to finish their entries on time would also be those that likely would start earlier - if a week doesn't get that much interest in the contest, the deadline for registration can be lengthened, if someone is a little late but has the possibility of finishing on time, then we shouldn't really say no to their participation.

Infinitus - Pokemon

God damnn it AHHHHHHH, no but really that is neat, Pokemon is a cool game. If you can get a menu engine that works efficiently that would be neat too.

I might participate but I have other things to work on as well so I am not officially going to through my proverbial hat at this yet.

If I was a good spriter, I wouldn't be making fan-games in my spare time u_u.

Also, if I could sprite, every project I have started would be finished. lawl

Good for you. BTW, if in the next 24 hours my posts sound ratty, it's because I've had very little sleep. Anyway, I've done alot of the Clock Town NPCs. only 9/10 more to go!!!

Awesome, I'm in. Just started a Zelda game a few days ago and then stumbled upon this contest  XD Deadline is May 2nd right? I think the days/months are mixed up in the main post so I just gotta make sure.
Title: Re: Contest #9: Game Development V2
Post by: 4Sword on April 13, 2009, 01:45:11 am
Yeah, the deadline is May 2, 2009. The American format goes month/day/year, a lot if not all European and other parts of the world go day/month/year. It's an oddity - that and how Americans do not use the metric system and how spellings are changed. But yeah, May 2, 2009.

Oh, and welcome to ZFGC.

I've decided to quit the competition.

Even though there is a holiday, I still have many things to work on for university -.-" so adding the competition would make things too complicated to me. I've talked to Colbydude and he'll do Zelda II alone.

Post by: Infinitus on April 18, 2009, 09:02:15 pm
Because a) its more suprising b) it stops people stealing ideas c) its not really a competition if people know exactly what the other people are doing, working in the dark is better :P

I still wish someone would help with graphics :(
Most every sprite from the game that I am using has been "updated" (*cough* my spriting looks like !@#$% */cough* ).
Programming is easy except for the AI *sigh*.

I just need someone to touch up my ugly mess and revamp the backgrounds and buildings that crumble.

-Scenes [Tatl Follows, Walking into Termina, Skull Kid, A new start, Majora's Mask]

Ha yeah dude. Try having that, school from 8:05-3:15, then driver's ed till 6. Kills dev time heavily. I completely forgot I started this week. :'(

So I probably won't be done with my project (as currently envisioned) before the deadline. At first making a Zelda II game was fun but after a week of working on it it became booooooorrriiinnngg and unbelievably tedious with the level construction. I've put too much work into it to not submit it though so I'll wrap it up  XD

*sigh* hopefully I get done with this thing, as I first planned. From what I've seen from other projects, people have dumped a lot of quality work into their entries. I just got a couple of things to re-vamp visually, and about 3 major objects.

Hey guys i've decided to stop the Kafei quest. Although it means I won't win the contest, Im tired. So what I'll do is wrap it up (Titlescreen, dying) and call it quits. Im not doing saving as the game will only last for 45 mins. No real point
EDIT : I've decided to pull myself from the competition. I won't win so there's no point. So much is unfinished, there's not enough time and Im too tired to care anymore. I'll just submit it.

Maybe you should have given us a month to do it, in stead of 2 weeks. <.<
The idea was to see what people could produce under pressure :P. The last few contests have been 2 weeks, and worked great. I think I just should have scheduled it better :P

Well personally I don't think that would be as cool. I have to agree with Infini, the short time amount was motivating, just to see how much could be done. It just came at a bad time for most it seems.

Well you wont see anything from me. I just had 4 finals over 4 consecutive days. This would have been better in June.

That would work if it was during Summer or Winter holidays. But right now it seems difficult to work under pressure, as some people had exams in school/college, or were busy with something. I wouldn't be able to focus on the competition if I had exams to study for, specially if I only have 2 weeks to finish the game.

Hence: "I think I just should have scheduled it better :P"

I'll setup another one during the summer when people are on holidays I guess.

Anyhow people, hand in your entries, only had 5 so far.

What we need is to start one like, now, that has a year-long deadline. See what people can get done after a year of work on a game. Maybe motivate somebody to actually get a decent game & built.

Need to start it now so I can do something while I'm in Afghanistan.

[Removed]

Dunno if these are the most recent ones or not :p can't test em either.

Depending on the version, ignore the shitty source. Didn't take much time on making sure it was nice and pretty.

This should be like a preliminary test contest or something. Start a better one in June and have the whole summer to do it.

If there aren't many entries, maybe you could extend this competition by a week or two?

Do you want an uberly cool program that fades from white to black, then plays music while displaying a star in the center? :3

That's how far I got. So sad.
