It's been quite some time since the last OROW competition. And I must say, I really like a lot of the games that have come out of previous OROWs. So I think it might be time for another one :D

So I decided to make this thread to see if there is any interest to start one soon?

Also: I wouldn't mind hosting it, but as I'm relatively new to the forums I don't know the general procedure of things. Anyone who's experienced one care to explain this?

EDIT:
The OROW is happening, and it's happening the 19th to the 25th of July.

I'm game. I haven't released anything and I've been here for 4 years so it's about bloody time I make something.

I doubt I'll be able to join the OROW, I could host it or co-host it, or help you out, but I've no idea who actually needs to be informed. I'm guessing Andail, would be the one to be officially asked. I suggest starting a small pole to see if actually people would really join. Then if you have about enough interest, you can really start it.

Who am I to be asked anyway? :-\
Worked on Strangeland, Primordia, Hob's Barrow, The Cat Lady, Mage's Initiation, Until I Have You, Downfall, Hunie Pop, and every game in the Wadjet Eye Games catalogue (porting)

A few months ago I would have totally been ready to make an OROW game, but lately I've gotten myself into some team projects that definitely take away from my game creating time.

Yeah, this is basically what I'm doing with this thread. I want to know if there is enough interest to start it up.

@Saberteeth: Awesome ;D

I was talking about this on IRC the other day. I'm game, as long as it is soon.

Soon, but not next week as my final exams are at that time and I'd hardly have time to do anything.

Wonkyth

I'd love to, and might even be able to.
Holidays?

Hohoho, tempting...

Curse these pending exams!

Bulbapuck

My exams ended yesterday which is why I posted this (whoooooo! summer break ;D)

But there seems to be some interest, so I'll try to start it up soon.

But we could probably wait a few weeks. How about the 14th of June to the 20th?

tzachs

I might join, if I'll be in the right mood and not distracted by other projects...

That's perfect for me.
Games are art!

Hm fits well for me too, not the best time but not bad either.

Igor Hardy

I'd participate in an OROW in July or August, but definitely not in June.

Wyz

Life is like an adventure without the pixel hunts.

Andail

Bulbapuck has my blessing.
Starting it in two weeks sounds like a fine plan, considering people are probably busy with exams and stuff now.

Wonkyth

Only July is good for me.  :'(

Bulbapuck

Alright, so there is definately interest. And I have Andail's blessing :) So this is happening ;D

The only thing left is to decide the dates. Now, the reason I suggested June was because I cannot host July nor August. We could move it up one week, but that would then be it. I'm sorry, but that's just how it is.

Fact is; I highly doubt that I'll be able to find dates that suits everybody. So I suggest that those dates are final.

But it is movable. So please post your opinions, if you want to join.

I just realised that I might be able to host late July, is interest high for me to move it 'til then?

Interest doesen't seem too high with the current dates...
