Official Contest! A New Beginning!

[regi]

Basically, you can use the RTP resources, but you want to avoid default things already set in (i.e. Aluxes, Basil, Gloria, Hilda, ghosts, etc.)

 

[djzalzer]

Kojo and I are in.

Okay. But does that include animations? 'Cause I sorta stink at making animations. Not the actual graphic files, just the animations that are in the default system.

 

[regi]

For a slow person, we would likely have:

1 hour = 0.60 minutes, or less.

For a RPG Maker master, like, say, Despain or soemthing, we would find ourselves with

1 hour = 1.5 minutes, or more for all we know.

Wouldn't it be the other way around? :P

Anyway, don't worry Mage I'm using the default animations... I don't think the judges will be THAT picky.

 

[Mage of Games]

'K. I doubt mine will win, but still, this is a cool contest.

 

[Sles]

RTP is anything that came with RMXP.  Including EVERYTHING.

You mean like vgmusic?  I'm sure that's fine.  Elaborate >_>

You're allowed to use rips and pretty much any resources as long as you credit the games, people, etc. who made/ripped/remixed it.

 

[Ulqiorra]

I don't know if this has been asked or not(mainly because I was bored and overwhelmed by trying to read and remember 6 pages of posts -_-'), but I was wondering if we were allowed to give up the RMVX copy to another member if we win?
I mean I like RGSS 2.00, but you can only have 1 Tileset in the game, I mean talk about DOWNGRADE. And if I took it, I'd probably decompress and hack it to fuse it with RMXP anyway (O.o exposed!)...(Never trust a piece of cheeze with a british accent!)

 

[The Hunter]

I might as well give this a try. I just got a Mythology Encyclopedia, so that might help.

Dear Despain,

I was performing my monthly visit here when I saw this topic advertised and nearly [bad-word-that-you'll-never-know!]ed with joy. You have made my day (and in Feb, my month when I win ^___^;.

Love, Craze

P.S. Guys, unless they manage to change everything from the trial of RMVX (wtf), it's soooooo smooth and sooooo awesome. So yeah. <3 <3 <3

 

[Kojo]

I say go for it anyway.  You just might win.

I guess I am in. With Djzalzer. Thanks for telling me you posted.

 

[Ynlraey]

I am really getting unmotivated here ;_;
The scripts makes me all dizzy and everything is like messy for me specially with errors and stuff ahuhuhuhu.

If you are JUST starting now, you have a lot of catching up to do.

Some people (like me, for example), have every resource that they need and are simply mapping, databasing, and eventing.

I already have a half hour finished >_>

Work fast, and your cocky attitude is amusing.

 

[Crazetex]

I have two months! Geez. I can make an enjoyable two-hour game in a (rather busy!) week; you've already posted in the topic and seen that I'm not joking.

The secret is not to get bogged down by zomg scripting. Make a fun game, not a zomgcoolsfx game. That said, I'll probably get ripped apart by judges for not "using RMXP to its full potential" but oh well.

And resource gathering... I have a ton of bookmarked sites, but I'm just using the rm2k3 RTP anyway. I'm making custom icons myself and I got some pretty facesets from http://sozaimenu.gozaru.jp/english.html , so I'm not worried there. For scripts I'm using a battle speed-up script from GameBaker, a self-tweaked five-actor battle party by Raice (plus I've edited the menu and stuff myself), Dargor's party changer script, that common train_actor script which doesn't have any credits within it and some algorithim/battle/other random tweaks I can do myself. For music I'm using a ton of stuff I've collected over the years that would be impossible to trace back to a specific URL.

As for the actual game, I'm doing an open-ended character collection game based off of an open-ended character collection game I started a while back (I think I posted screenshots here, actually...) but, as per the contest rules, I'm not actually using that project, just the same graphics and basic idea. If that's not allowed by Despain then holy shit I quit.


(Was that a cocky enough retort for you?)

 

[Devro]

Hence why it's a rule of thumb, and a general statement, and not a strict rule which everyone must follow. God, you guys are annoying.

I dont understand why you are even saying it as a general rule of thumb, as its simply not true. Not trying to be rude but dude you need to stop reading online journals and other peoples opinions and actually make a game (which im sure you have, im just wondering why you didnt say so when defending your point previously) that is half decent that was made using that rule. I personally think its far more annoying when someone says something thats not the case, it leads people into making shoddy games :P

By the way i have nothing against you whatsoever, just your annoying reply which im probably over exaggerating anyway. So i apologize in advance if my comments have offended you in anyway If only there was somewhere to discuss this further without spamming this thread i love a good debate

 

[4StarGeneral]

Heh heh, just starting now myself.
