GW's $300 contest!

[Despain]

Thanks buddy,
just signed up over at GW so now the writing process begins. Good luck to everyone.
Anyone know how many contestants we got so far? Or is that, "classified"
-Polidoro

Impossible to say, since of the fifty or so people who say "I'm in", a bunch will drop out before the deadline.

I'm a little curious as to whether anyone has an RTP style panda available. Heh.... I've been banging my head against photoshop these past few days with very little success.

Look up ^.  I've posted a panda sprite for anyone to use.

I did look up. Hence the reason why I asked for an RTP style one. My purpose for the panda is a smidge different. I've been working on a recolor of the bear. It's a smidge frustrating to get the fur correct.

Umm that IS a RTP one... ^_^

not a RMXP RTP one, no, but it is a RMVX one ^_^

Why dont you just re-size the panda one for the RMXP charsets and then copy the extra side column to make it work in XP?

 

[Stardust]

Here's an XP version.  It's rather blurry from the resizing, but I'm not sure how to fix it.  It'll at least give XP users something to work with.  If you want it fixed you can always head over to Resource Requests.

Just a few days left guys, keep it up (and remember to submit your entry in the thread on GW)

Do you mind if the entries are on Megaupload?

 

[Kraft]

I hope I can finish this... It will be close!

BTW, how many entries do you have as of now?

 

[Stardust]

I think there are 4 entries so far.  Sarevok's expecting to have most of the submissions at the last minute.

 

[Sailerius]

My entry's nearly done.  Just finishing beta testing now.

 

[Sarevok]

About 9 atm, megaupload is fine (but rapidshare is better, I have a premium on it)

 

[ablahblah987]

I think I posted mine a little late because of a time mix up... I really hope it gets included.

 

[dogdick master]

Which was your game?

 

[Kraft]

Alas...  I could not finish my game *sadness*

Although I did work my freaking butt off trying to finish it (up till 4 two or three nights last week getting stuff working)


I guess, even though this contest is "over" it did have a good outcome for me.  I realized just how much I actually can do in a week and a half ^_^

I was planning on at least trying to finish it yesterday, but I had other things which I had to do first (thing like packing all my stuff, and fixing my car ^_^)

Thanks though for the contest, it did motivate me... I just think I decided to chase after a game that was too time consuming to make ^_^ (a lot of event systems in there ^_^)

Anyways, thanks again!

The contest was probably a complete waste of my time since my game doesn't appear to even be included. All it did was distract me from The Worst Day Ever. I'll probably still post my contest game on here at some point.

If you submitted the game on time, then contact Sarevok to try and straighten things out.  If you submitted after the deadline, then you shouldn't be included.  Everyone knew what the deadline was when starting.  Sarevok has been very generous and allowed some to finish/update after the deadline.

I only turned it in an hour and a half late and that was because I was confused about GMT time. In EST I wasn't late. I've tried to contact him a number of times different ways and he won't respond at all. He acts like I don't exist.

Did you pm him on gw? He doesn't come here much.

You really shouldn't be bitching about the guy, he's offering nearly $500 of his own personal money as prizes for a game making contest. It's his contest and he can do what he wants with it.

 

[ablahblah987]

Yeah I did. It is generous what he's doing and I definitely appreciate it, but that doesn't mean that he's not being extremely rude right now or that he didn't likely waste a lot of my time.

In case you are interested (I have been told by DN to post here) here are the results
