    3rd Annual PGD Competition due to start Feb 1st...

    Hi All,
    Just a quick heads up to remind everyone that this year's PGD Competition is due to start on Feb 1st. So start dusting off your Pascal game libraries and show us what you are made of.

    We will provide more details and rules in the coming weeks.

    I look forward to seeing more and more entries this year!

    Oh oh... I hope I'll find the time! I am on a more or less priorized project at the moment. Hmm.... Let's wait until the rules and prices come out :twisted:

    I am very happy to hear about the start of a new compo! The last one was real fun!

    Greetings,
    Dirk

    Hmm. I was hoping to compete with the new Asphyre 4 but as far as I can see it hasn't been released yet. though the homepage says it will be released in the middle of December

    Well. I suppose I'll just have to find some backup library.
    My second problem would ofcourse be time. Don't have any of it, but I really want to compete so I must/will find time no matter what. Even if I'll have to drop out of the University I want to compete. :twisted:
    Imagine I've written something clever here inspiring you to make something awesome. If that happens give me credits

    As flattering as that is, please don't.

    Though even if you are able to make a partial working/complete game, this still helps in showing numbers at the competitions.

    We had a lot of people register last year, but only a fraction of those submitted working entries. Mind you I am also grateful that those that only submitted partial work did so, it still helped to show an interest in the competitions and that it was growing.

    Dom an I have been talking and it looks like we're gonna be deep in PGD Annual territory soon. So I'd gather your tools now. If it's not out yet, don't sit and wait for it. I'd find a solution for whatever game you'll end up making starting Feb 1st with whats available to you now.


    I've also been asked to help with the write-up of the regulations [size=9px](not rules)[/size], since I've some experience with last year. This year we can promise that we'll learn from the last one and have a longer more detailed set of rules for all to read and agree to. [size=9px](You do so automatically by registering for the competition anyhow.)[/size] Rest assured though that most of the regulations will not change too much. Most of the additional information will be just clarification of pre-existing things that were not properly penned from last year.


    Also no volunteer artist for the competition promotional stuff yet. We are still looking if anyone is interested please email myself at raproductions@hotmail.com OR private message either savage or myself here on PGD.

    That's my problem, but unfortunately I'm not quite as dedicated to the comp as I am to uni at this point. I'm hoping to finish it this year so I'll be looking towards next years comp. If I can muddle through getting FPC/Lazarus working I'll be looking towards a cross-platform entry.

    Any rules this year against using existing engines? I was thinking of using JS4 for this years compo, as I've implemented many improvements from last years version that make development a bit easier .

    Can't wait till Feb 1 and Feb 2 . Feb 1 Compo starts, Feb 2 close on our new house. Hope that first deadline is an easy one so moving doesn't have to be pushed back
