Official Contest

[Nagelfar]

A visual novel won? Trash.

- Alex

Oh, that is just awful, is the japanese market really so much more into that visual novel little girly raping (I know, stereotypes but still) bullcrapt that they would give 5000 freaking $ to the creator of such a game?!

 

[GP2X_Coder]

I really wish I had more time to finish salvaria I now have 4 main characters and over 20+ enemys added I just didn't relize the scope of making a full RPG would take so much time for one person to complete.
My comunity contest game should be fun for everyone. Atleast they will get to play it soon. Anyone know what all is included in the GP2X Full Set each ?

 

[J201605]

lol thats straight retarded, why dont they drop 3rd place and call it tie for second. Does this mean the word simulator guy gets a free gp????

 

[shinneri]

When's Craig going to hold another competition? Those were so great in the GP32 days... :wub:

 

[Alex.]

There' the community contest till then, don't forget about it!

We need a translation of that visual novel.

I know, and I'm looking forward to that. But if I remember correctly, that's only homebrew. Craig's competitions always brought great homebrew and great emulators.

 

[Draken]

Ugh, I'm quite curious to the visual novel really, if it won 1st prize. I'd like to add that the wonderful Narcissu is a visual novel and has no pornography in it by the way..

Shame you didn't win atleast 3rd price, gp2x_coder..

 

[OrR]

You could call Phoenix Wright a visual novel and that's one of the best games released in recent years!

 

[jbrodack]

the english site hasn't been updated yet and are we going to be able to download any of the entries?

 

[nickspoon]

What? No 2nd prize awarded? How on earth does that work? I claim that prize for my Amazing Word Simulator.

 

[PokeParadox]

I claim that prize just for being me... and for my intent to enter the contest... and because Stone Cold said so...

I should have entered. I bet anyone who entered as simple a game would have got the 2X full set. Who dares wins I guess :-\

[PokeParadox]

Well really they should have defined less ambiguous rules...

 

[Cervante]

A visual novel game....cmon....cmon...you...*bites toungue* ..man im not gonna say anything im dissapointed in this, seeing games like elsewhere, quake,odonata, payback im thinking its gonna be something out of this world...no man, this is just dissapointing. Good thing I have the new Bob to fall back on to reduce 50% of the dissapointment I have right now.

Thanks for the nice comment. But oh well if I could have entered it now I think I would have got a lot higher I just didn't have enuff of it done but now with my graphic streaming I am no longer bound to the memory limitations of the GP2X. But the good thing is for the community contest my game will be finished and I hope everyone will enjoy it. The game has a very retro feel but very upto date game play and graphics all completely original. I have about 12 other projects in the works. I just love to program and push the limits of this little thing.

 

[Alex.]

Twelve? Come on now, give us some spoilers! I have two in the works, semi-playable, and a headful of ideas

Hi,

I'm a little sad my game only managed to come 4th but I suppose that means there are some really great games out there. As I haven't really made a web page or anything for my game I've decided to upload a video of it. Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EunmNMeUxaw

The features of this game (currently implemented):
Collectable upgrades: High jump, double jump, grappling hook, all the good stuff.
Extra weapons: Rapid fire, supprt missiles, different beams, charge up shots, etc. etc.
Large playing area with many, many levels in twelve different zones (only 2 are done at the moment)
Enemies and dangerous plants and obstacles and traps (there's quite a few)
A story (kind of)
Save points, demo recording and playback.
Boss rush mode.
Obstacle course mode.
Fully expandable with extra levels or new missions (just like doom with .wad files)
Music.
100% rock steady 50fps all the time.
A nice cat called nicholas who explores.

:mellow:

 

[jbrodack]

your game looks great. graphically its basic but that just looks like a game I could play for hours and have a lot of fun. the fact that you can add extra levels to it is really great too.

 

[Ravnos]

Dr. Ian, your game looks interesting. Are you going to be releasing it soon?
