Hope this isn't too cliche, i really can't think of anything better now.

Good luck everyone!

---------------------------------------------------------

Voting starts 24th Jan 2009, unless more time is requested.
The voting will be done in these categories:

Idea - The underlying idea to the background. Doesn't
necessarily have to coincide perfectly with the theme of the
week, just strike you as interesting/amusing/inspiring; a place
you'd really enjoy visiting within a game.

Atmosphere - How well the image manages to evoke a certain feeling or mood.

Design - How well the elements in the image are designed,
such as landscapes, buildings, decorations, clouds, doorknobs,
etc.

Composition - How well the elements in the image work
together/are positioned in relation to each other.

Functionality - How well it would work when adding sprites,
including appropriate walking distances, a good angle for
character sprites, clever walkway solutions, easily understood
exits, etc.

Technique - How well the ideas are executed in form of
rendering.

[Geratuza]

i do not really get the topic. do you mean prehistoric like the stone age?

[bog]

yeah it can be stone age but it can be before that also

[Nacho]

I think the topic is ok...

And Gera... You just gotta go to wiki and see when the historical period starts, it' s easy

[bog]

does anyone intend to participate? maybe we should figure out something else if not

[Andail]

Nah, please let the competition run its course, and finish it in due time. If there is no participation whatsoever by March 5th, we'll sort out who will run the next round then.

This is a difficult one, but i think im gona participate. Only hope not to be the only one.

[jerakeen]

i think is a classic one, i couldn't think another one. The typical cave painting.

When mammoth and others frightening creatures ruled the world, mankind where still living in caves. They needed to avoid intruders. The clan who lived in this cave drew cave painting so they could knew wich slabs to use to go across the lava, because there were unstable slabs.

May be they painted hunting scenes too.

Nice, Jerakeen! Quite original technique.

Good to know that if a winner has to be elected by default, it's still a nice background that wins

[bog]

[jerakeen]
