Hi!

I think the download link does not work? :shock:

Firle

[Huehnerschaender]

Hey! I am a movie star now! *lol* :)


Congratulations to all winners, especially JasonF, Mirage and 3F!!!! Nice work!

And wohooo! I won the "most innovative" price with my prototype! Thats awesome! I wish I have had the time to finish it...

Great work Jason... nice video! Even though at some cuts the volume varys too much. I was close to a heartache after the bouldermouse presentation :)


Again, congratulations to all the winners!

[Firlefanz]

Hey Dirk,

what do you want to say with that? :wink:

I am in from 2:30 and 15:30 with Bouldermouse and Innominate.

The video is really well made, also congratulations from me to the winners! 8)

[Huehnerschaender]

I wanted to say that I had to turn up the volume during the bouldermouse-video and right after it, the next video scene was much louder.

[jasonf]

YAY! :D :D :D :D

I'm... still... jumping... around.... can't... type....

Cool Video WILL.
(I notice the scores haven't been updated though yet.... :wink: )
Well done everyone :D, back to jumping around....

[chronozphere]

Congrats everyone! Good job, JasonF, Mirage and 3F. Enjoy your prizes ;)

The video was really cool. I also noticed some volume changes... but it's not a problem for me.

The overall quality of the games is really good. I haven't played many of them yet :oops:

[savage]

WILL you did a FANTASTIC job putting this video together. Really great work. Thanks again!

[Robert Kosek]

Congratulations JasonF, Mirage, and 3F!

Good work Jason, I was wondering just how many nominations you'd be carrying off during the video.

[madwoody]

Great work winners. Keep up the good work! And Will ofcourse for making this video :)

[Galfar]

Congratulations to the winners.

Any time frame on when the competition results page will be updated with final scoring?

[jdarling]

Nice work everyone, and congrats to the winners. Now, JasonF get your @$$ to work and make us proud at IGF :P

WILL, best video yet, keep it up and your going to have to switch careers to a production artist soon :)

[WILL]

Thanks guys, I was dying, trying to keep this one a secret while getting this one done. I'm happy that I was finally able to use your footage from way back in Feb, Dirk. :lol: Even as it was technically past it's expiry date. ;)

You know... I've actually learned quite a bit about Movie Maker in the process too. (even though all that knowledge was never used yet. :P) Quite a neat little program if you can get it to stop crashing. :roll:

Congratulations to everyone once again. :)

Jason, I can finally say it. *whew* get going on your entry for the IGF! :D I'm sure Dom will contact you shortly to set you up for the IGF. You have until October 1st to submit your game to them via FTP .

Also let me know what size/dimentions you'll need for a PGD logo screen so you can indert it as a splash screen at the start of your game (You're PGD sponsored now! ;))

Everyone else expect to be contacted shortly to verify your prize winnings and mailing addresses if required.

The download version is available now. (It was really late and I didn't want to wake up in the already early morning to update the post for the link.) You should be able to download and watch it in all 640x480 glory now... But please don't try to stream it. :)

I WAS going to post this to YouTube... but it seems that they have suddenly limited their video posts to not only 100 MB, but also 10 mins. Seeing as this one is 22 mins long... that was just a royal pain in the you-know-what... so I said stuff 'em. :lol: Google Video gets the glory. ;) Yahoo! Video copy has also been uploaded, but is still apparently "processing". I guess I'll post that one too once it's done.

All these smilies. :P Sorry, I guess I get all Emot-ional at these things. :lol:

[NecroDOME]

Congrats everyone that won, or won something (or where nominated)!!

I didn't know we where nominated for best graphics with the race game :P , However we bailed out... Next compo I hope we have some more time.

About the movie: It rocks. Nice work!


Hey! I am a movie star now! *lol* Smile
Not just a movie star, a PGD movie star :P . Maybe you should make a promo-rules-concept-explanation for the next compo ;) !!

[wodzu]

Congratulations to winners and everyone who tried...
Good job folks! :D

[WILL]

Released Results data! Oh, and I'll be updating the details page in another day or so.

Gives the video time to gain some viewership.

[cairnswm]

Well done everyone :)

Hopefully next year I'll get my game finished!

[arthurprs]

Nice ^^

[Robert Kosek]

The Lutescens Planet throws an Invalid Floating Point Operation whenever I enter the second phase. :s It looks and plays nice though.

[Mirage]

Wow! Great!
:D :D :D 8) :o :shock:

Very professionally-made video! The level of PGD compo is rising from year to year.

Thanks to all!

[Traveler]

I've been away last week for a short trip, so I am a bit late with the reply, but here's a big congratz from me to the winners, as well as a :thumbup: to WILL for making this excellent video summary!

[farcodev_]

Yeah great work for pgd founders and all the developpers.

Cool games and good ideas :shock:

Maybe i'll post mine next year if i success to make a beta :shock: :? :lol:

[WILL]

Thanks again guys. I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

Glad to see your interest in the competitions farcodev. But do know that all games made in the PGD Annual are started at the beginning of the competition it's self.

Though I believe there was the idea of taking nominations for games made in Pascal/Object Pascal from PGD site Members and including those into the Awards somehow.

[farcodev_]

Ooops :shock: okee didn't known it WILL.

Yup it could be cool, as include SCAG (what a video ! :shock: )

[WILL]

I've updated the announcement to show the 3-part You Tube Version.

I've fixed the volume issues. It should be easier to listen to now. :)

Also I've rearranged the order of some of the segments at the beginning so it flows better.

Feel free to check them out. I'm sure our YouTube audience will be glad to see these. ;)

[Paizo]

Congratulation to all the developers as well to Will for the very nice video :)

[WILL]

It seems that the huge DivX download version was causing us some major grief lately and since the YouTube version is better anyways, Dom and I just removed it.

On another note; Some of the competition entries have received reviews already...
