awesome inspiring! the results were more educational then the actual game design experience ;). Strange that it took so long for the judgement, well congrats to the winner CG sky in any case.
Tons of great feedback! I see a lot of ways I can improve now that I didn’t notice before. Haha, I like how Monster put himself in all the games. It was worth the wait just to see those
Congratz CG sky, Red Frost, and Smoking_mirror and great job to everyone that submitted! Thank you judges and host Timster. I had fun, and I’m looking forward to entering again.
Congratulations to all participants, quality entries overall, and so many!
I apologize it took so long for me to review them, but I had my reasons
Thanks to Thatimster for hosting the competition.
The other games are upbge games. For whatever reason this games show just white screens or somethign that is not really usable.
Had that problem with a blend of my own. took me a minute to solve, upbge has only glsl function (standard on) if you open the blend in bge it cant make a choice and you get a white screen, simply turn it on GLSL and everything should work (except active_events upbge uses activeInputs instead).
Wow that was a fantastic overview, and I really appreciate all of the comments I received. Thank you for the great judging and hosting, and I can’t wait to see what happens next time around.
if i remember correctly monster said, you game was black with a few lines, i had the same thing, trashed it within a minute, because yours was no glsl problem. and he did play as i remember correctly and he pointed it out to you
#edit @ 19 second in the #1 post/video thats yours, it did not look like that at all, all your textures where black.
Wow what a great and interesting contest! Everyone who participated did so well, and I’m really surprised by the sheer amount of original games that resulted from this Bgmc.
Huge thanks to thatimster as well, who really raised the bar in terms of BGMC hosting. It’s gonna be tough to follow this up.
Also a great thank you to the judges, who went through all the games and gave some very honest and helpful feedback.
And to anyone who is sad that they didn’t win, Take it as a chance to learn. From your game and from the other games that you liked. Making a game in a week is all about sacrifice. Sacrificing a lot of your freetime. Sacrificing game ideas if they are too big in scope. Sacrificing features to get the game finished.
None of your games is a “fail”, each time you participate at this challenge you will get much better. Everyone who participated at this contest already won.
I’m hoping to see you in Bgmc 24. I’ve got some ideas already, so be sure to stay up to date in the forums
I’m also quite confused, that Monster wasn’t able to play my game. I provided a .exe file, and a blend along with the correct version of upbge as a zip file. So no installing is needed, and everything should work great.
Even for Linux it should work, as a Linux friend said you can quite easily open .exe files on Linux.
