First BennuGD WIZ/PC contest

Drumpi · January 30, 2010, 03:40:17 AM

Basically, Splinter is asking for how many time do you need to finish your games for the contest.
We are talking about 2 or 3 days, i don't think he's talking about a week. Or i'm wrong? ^^U

Honestly, i need 3 days more to finish, so, what about you?
Those who had finished his games will have some more time to make them perfect ;D

The remaining ~24 hours is = 3 work days of 8 hours each :P

I'm gonna enjoy the every minute of it

if you all need 1 week, ask it... but I need compromise for it... I need know how many people are working in your projects for this contest... I need that use this time for finish it...

How much time are we talking about?

For me, 1 month is ok :P

More seriously.
It is just that 2 entries were already submitted. It seems unfair for them as they managed to finish within the given deadlines.

Besides this,
1 week would be really great, 3 days would be really nice.

well, 1 extra week... last extend time...

Oh, did the time got extended? Then I could have worked a lot more on the game. Still, it's nice to have it in and know I am done.

Perhaps we who finished in time will get a small plus when the score is counted. ;)

Or maybe you can use the extra time too, an add new modes, graphics, musics, etc ;D

you can use this extra week for do an update to your entry... all contester can do it if wish do it...

If you update your game, please take into the account that Bennu runs in a lot of computer platforms that are not the Wiz. I'm saying this because I'm testing the games in my Linux box and the games treat it like the Wiz in terms of resolution/scaling/mouse and it's really a pain in the eye -the resolution is too low for a normal computer- to test it.

Thanks a lot!

Imerion · February 01, 2010, 08:32:07 PM

Yep, perhaps I can give the game some extra polish during this last week. At least I can do some more testing.

Josebita, I did think of that, so I made two versions of my game, one optimized for Wiz and one optimized for Linux (and Windows). Each is in it's own archive. (Though they share the same data files.) Hope that makes your testing easier.

josebita · February 02, 2010, 01:46:46 PM

Thanks. I've tested a couple of games for the compo that had this issue. It's nice that you thought of it!

quasist · February 07, 2010, 02:21:16 AM

In a few hours I will sent my entry...

Some mob skills appeared to behave very strange. The archer was using armor instead of arrows :P

Upd: sent. Could you confirm if it has been recieved?

SplinterGU · February 08, 2010, 03:52:40 AM

I have 11 games entries... I'm waiting 1 more entry...
