aidave, you are assuming the judges have been working on them for a solid month. Personally I'm hoping they started on Tuesday, which will mean it's any day now...
And am I just being paranoid, or did the teams get re-arranged on the results page? Tanx is 1, Arctic Macrob is 2 and Blocked is 3 - a taste of things to come, or were they ordered by some other means (submission dates are all out of order, they are not alphabetical...so...).
Thanks again to the judges for taking your time - I'm sure the winner will appreciate the thoroughness when it comes to polishing their entry for the IGF - first submission is in September, by the way (yikes!). Eric and Dean have some hard work (and hopefully fun, if we did our jobs right) ahead of them - I think there are 3 or 4 really strong contenders for first place, and we haven't even seen half of the entrants!
Keep us updated guys, I'll embrace any tidbit or teaser!
Well... this ain't their day job you know, so they do it when they can.
Gooooooo, judges!
:roll:
maybe I must think how will I use FMOD
Very observative of you, hehe
Welcome: This year's game theme title is 'THE BIG BOSS'! Each team or individual will design a game that features levels and bosses to challenge at the end of each level.:read:The Rules:
GENRE: Pick and game genre you wish. Either 2D or 3D graphics is fine. Just make sure whatever game you create is organized into LEVELS and has BOSSES your player(s) go(es) up against. All else is open for your creativity.
if arctic macrob is really #2 than im upset
no offense to imp5,
i think you made a good and very fun game,
but it simply doesnt qualify for this contest.
you cant win the race if you run on a different track.
neither the theme nor the rules are satisfied...
i know...
there are four categories of scores,
and none of them is a "boss" category.
yet consider this entire contest centers around bosses
therefore those categories should be scored,
taking the bosses into analysis
for example: are the bosses fun and innovative?
how do they look and sound?
etc
we put alot of work into making the coolest and biggest boss we could imagine.
in order to do that, we had to sacrifice many other things.
i'm sure you can understand why. after all,
it is called "THE BIG BOSS COMPETITION"
please consider this !!! :?
now, now,.. lets wait untill we have actually seen the results before we start the discussions shall we.
I agree with Traveler that it is too premature to protest scores and rankings, but aidave does raise a good point: If a game does not satisfy the competitions requirements (in this case only one: levels with bosses), will it be disqualified out right or will it simply lose some points in the scoring? I suppose if it's not clearly stated elsewhere that you will be disqualified it's a little late to do it now, but I agree that a game that does not meet the contest's requirements should not be in the top three!
Now, we'll just wait and see who the top three actually are, and then go from there :lol: !
