Man, this looks sweet.
I can't wait for the games to be over so i can play them.

Btw, All bets here i'm giving 4:1 until july 28th or whatever.

Quick question Andail.

If we finish early, can we beta test?

Andail · Mon 02/08/2004 23:06:21

Sorry, no other people than your team-members may be a part of the creation of the game.
That also goes for advice, c&c, beta-testing etc.

If you finish it that early (bravo!), spend the time on polishing whatever you can think of.

Ginny · Tue 03/08/2004 21:24:55

I have a small question aswell, are we allowed to immedeatly release the game or should we only e-mail it to you at first and wait? Just wondering.

Czar · Thu 05/08/2004 22:07:05

I presume that, if the file won't be changed, it doesnt make the difference who gets it first.

The judges will have to play it sooner or later.
Only, i think you should post the game with the status and all stuff.

Andail · Fri 06/08/2004 16:51:48

No, the games will be delivered to the jury first. I don't want the common opinion to affect the decisions.

The jurors will look very thoroughly at all aspects of the games, and will make their decisions based on various parameters.

In the ordinary games' thread, all sorts of people can keep yelling "wow" page up and page down, and their noises shall not interfere with the judging!!!

Gosh, I sound harsh.
Anyhow, the delay will just be a week, so it's not much to debate.

Now go on with your games. And don't forget the final status report tomorrow. I'm aware that two teams have sad news to announce.

Hey Andail,

One question about the deadline.

What time on Saturday is the "official" deadline? Midnight? GMT? EST? PST?

-Dave

Andail · Wed 11/08/2004 18:16:58

Noon, Greenwich time.

The link to your game should be in my inbox before this time.

BerserkerTails · Wed 11/08/2004 19:26:05

Sweet. That means we have a few hours on Saturday to finish our ga- I mean... Add extra content...

...

<Goes back to working>

Vel · Sat 14/08/2004 08:53:24

Im now back and fortunately our team members finished it ^_^

Dave Gilbert · Sat 14/08/2004 13:13:37

Finished by the skin of our teeth!

My GOD what an experience. The challenge of a deadline was refreshing for all of us. I had a great team and was proud to have every one of them on board.

Till next time,

-Dave

When do the General Public get to see these?

Eggie · Sat 14/08/2004 13:33:41

Heh, our team didn't make it. But we're to finish the game anyway.

Chicky · Sat 14/08/2004 14:20:41

aye, us also... Big eyes

Andail · Sat 14/08/2004 16:50:47

Ok, the race is over.
I've recieved two games, and it feels a bit awkward electing a winner out of two games, so I pronounce both of them winners.
This also means you can release the games on the forum immediately, there won't be a jury grading them.

Extremely well done, all of you, and especially the two teams who actually made the deadline.
