EDIT: Hourgame is over!
Everyone vote now!

Hello everyone!

Not much for long complicated posts (that's a total lie).
On the spur of the moment, we in #AGS irc decided on having an hourgame (that is a total truth).
Time is in about 2 hours and 15 minutes from this post (7pm GMT?)
Rules not yet set.
Will try to get someone to post the rules in here when it starts (might not be me, because I want to participate), but to get into the mood with like-minded participants, you can join the #AGS channel (the server is irc.adventuregamestudio.co.uk and the channel is #AGS) on IRC, or even the AGS discord channel here: https://discord.gg/BSvN5ZF
So get your AGSes warmed up and ready!

The theme is WINTER.

I am totally in awe of those who can piece together a working game, however crude, in such a short time-frame.

Good luck to all involved!

Aw, too bad, I just came home right now. I hope I can join next time!

Okay, the hourgame ends now!

Voting starts.

EDIT:
Voting works this way: you vote 3 times,
you give 3 points to one entry
2 points to another
and 1 point to an entry.
Radiant finished the game in an hour so he gets 3 extra points at start.

EDIT 2:
Soxy and gameboy start with 1 extra point because they finished(uploaded) their games 15 minutes after the 1 hour.

After playing them all and some thought, here are my votes:

one point goes to Ibispi and the army of creepy carrot-eating snowmen I could not run away from.

2 points go to Babar for a game that, while lacking polish, was fun to play and had a unique backstory.

...and the maximum 3 points go to Radiant, for his game was the most complete and polished of the bunch. The simple gameplay worked well, graphics were neat and consistent. Didn't encounter any bugs, which is an achievement for a game made during such short time. Also, this is the game that offered the longest gameplay time to me.

I haven't really been around during hourgame competitions, so I have no comparison, but I think the competition went really well regarding the amount of entries. Great job, everyone! I really liked Sox's graphics, twas a shame there wasn't much more gameplay.

I give 3 points to Soxy for nice snowman animation and graphics and following the theme of the hourgame which was Winter.
2 points to gameboy for also following the theme and having to clean the snow
1 point to Radiant for surprisingly big game for such a short amount of time, but not really following the theme.
0 points to babar for making a game with a sunny background for the theme winter.

Damn, missed it. Mind you, I was nicely tucked in bed. Swings and roundabouts.

Ibispi · Thu 19/01/2017 10:42:15

That's alright, Stupot, participate the next time (I don't know when that will be)

We should make a regular thing of this! And maybe standardise a time suitable for everyone.

Agreed, that would be awesome.

Something like all the other monthly contests we have around here.

Retro Wolf · Thu 19/01/2017 19:07:27

Yes make this a monthly thing!
The only problem I see is that in different parts of the world the time would make it hard for everybody to participate, It could be 3AM!
