Title: Sprite Jam Oct. 19-26
Post by: big brother on Wed 19/10/2005 05:48:26
Since the past few jams featured very specific topics, I thought I'd leave this one more open-ended. The topic is... (tears open envelope)


A WINNER


Interpret this word how you want. You can take the oportunity to be facetious and depict Leisure Suit Larry for example. I will determine the victor of this contest by (a) creativity and (b) technique.

Limitations:

Max Size: 125x125
Max Colors: 24

Go crazy!Ã,

U can never cheat Death - she allways wins at the end. So, Death is the ultimate winner.

The answer to all of life's problems, and the ultimate winner in all situations.

I'll replace this entry if I have the time to make one, but for now this is my entry.

I think we're on to something here. I'm happy with how each entry so far describes a different interpretation of the topic. Good stuff, guys! Keep them coming!

Excuse the bad anatomy. It's my first try without an anatomy base:

Guess who just one the chess match?
2x at 20 colours (I hope that is not a problem)

Oh yeah- the stuff in the corner translates to something like "That's the way it's done!". Sorry, I had to include it. Sort of like homage to my inspiration ;D

Congratulations, Farlander, you're the winner! Great concept and solid pixeling (I especially like your color choice).

Krysis, very creative concept! You might want to use a greater difference in value between your shades for next time (it will give your piece better contrast).

Weeeeh! I won! Thanks to the host and to the rest of competitors. Wins are not joyfull if the "rivals" don't push the winner to the limit, and this win has been joyfull indeed. I am learning a lot since I started to enter sprite jam trying to copy BB's entries, and working in improving my sprites for Comfy in CL with ProgZmax's and BB's help. Thanks to them and to those who are helping me and I can't recall now.

I'll start the new competition asap.
