NOVEMBER EVENT: Walkin' in a Winter WonderMAP001 (NOW WITH c-c-c-c-CASHPRIZE!!!)

I'm, willing to add to the prize pool for 3rd(If there's no 3rd in the end, then 2nd.)
3 30x30(or smaller) XP maps.
Project advertised in my sig for 1 month.

I know its not much, but its all I got!
 
Wait, before I forget, is there a certain time limit that the game can be? The requirement is 10 minutes, I know that. I was going to make it about 1-2 hours, but I didn't know if that would be accepted.

Edit: I think 3 hours is a good limit.
 
Hehe, I was thinking of shortening it actually. I was planning everything out today and I realized 2 hours of game time is a crap load. I think I'll make it about 45min-1 hour Max.

Well I must say I live in Australia and it is freaking HOT!
However I am in need of some serious time off from my serious tonned projets so this looks like an ideal.
That is if it's not too late for me to enter.
I don't have lots of time on my hands so I am aiming towards a game based more upon puzzles! ^_^

I might get enough time for personal graphics but I shall see!

Wooo Winter in Summer!
 
Your not late because you can start anytime, its just that the deadline is around December 15th I believe. So you have to get your project in before then.
 
Ah'k, I'm in. There's something I've been wanting to make for a while anyway, so might as well as use this as an incentive to get started on it. It's just a short simple story, and I'm not expecting anything - but this contest event seems like it has a great potential for participation turn-out, so it doesn't hurt to pump some more material in. Good luck with the event.
 
Think I may post a donation to the box of gifts.

1st Prize: Two Regular RTP Human charsets or a large charset.

2nd Prize: One RTP Charset

3rd Prize: One RTP 4-dir character standing sprite.
 
I don't know if this would be a great prize or a horrible one, but maybe the 1st place winner could decide (or at least have some say in) next month's contest theme. Either that or they could help judge next month's entrants. (if they don't want to enter again)
 
I haven't entered a contest in years. I think it's about time I started doing these things now that there's actually a prize rather than the prestige at saying "look at meeee! I beat Roman_Candle at a mapping contest", which I actually never did by the way so props to him. This should be fun, I haven't even released my game's first chapter but suddenly I'm doing a Christmas Special
 
Alright.  I've only finished one game before and it was a ten minute contest between a few friends and my siblings.  So maybe it's about time I try something new.  Count me in.  I don't know if I'll finish, however; because right now I'm in a hotel room in Utah because tomorrow I'm driving the rest of the way to my new home!  Woot!  I'm moving out.  Okay.  Blurt out finished.

Anyway.  I'm going to give this a shot.  Does anyone have any links for some decent Christmasy or at least winter themed music?  That would be extremely helpful.
 
I will be extatically entering this contest :D:D yay
If I enter, can I still add something to the 1st place prize?
theoryStudios' "RPG::Architect" is scheduled for release on January 1st.  Regardless of making that date or not, I'd like to throw in a full liscence as well as access to the developers' board (behind-the-scenes) to the first prize winner.  But only the first prize winner.

Why?  Because it's been too long since I've seen an abundance of quality work.

EDIT:
I'll also throw in a full Web 2.0 hi quality banner (I'm an advertising specialist and web developer in the real world) as well as display this banner in my signature.  I'll also advertise the winning project on RMXP through Project Wonderful for $10 (however many days that is at the time) along with a custom button for this as well.  I'll also make a custom avatar for the winner.

Yes, I'm for real.
 
No problem.  I kind of owe you guys anyway.

Oh, and if by some stroke of luck I do make first place, I'll grant the above said prizes to second place.
 
Ooooh, I'm going to let my project sit a while so I can enter this, just a question, do i have to sign up somewhere, or can i start now?

also, im not good at really any custom art work for VX/XP, but I like doing window skins, so I can try to make a themed one for the 1st or 2nd place winner, not much, but pretty much all I can do lol.
