Who is entering the Axe Parser programming contest?
« on: August 31, 2010, 01:17:47 am »
Ok so I was wondering who was entering the Axe contest now, as a lot of people who participated lost their project or stopped and some other people may have joined later, so now I don't know anymore? Remember the contest ends on September 16th 2010 at 12 AM GMT-5 DST, by the way.

I was gonna, but I'm not gonna lie. I've been super lazy, and I'm currently occupied with other things. :P

Now that I have some time at school, I might begin anew. I was thinking a tech demo for my action-oriented game, because I won't have enough time for any actual content.

I was, but my summer was stolen by the terror that is AP assignments and other stuff. Still, yesterday i just got a wicked idea, so maybe I'll be able to get something in by the deadline.

I'm entering. (kinda obvious to those who've checked the topic on Nostalgia.)


Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

Btw remember that if you are making a large game, it doesn't need to be finished to be entered. However, if it's a demo or beta, it has to be functional, offer enough features and be as stable as possible to have a chance to compete. If I try a game that crashes every 3 minute it may not get a very good score and people may not vote for it..

Ah, just finished. I'll enter as soon as school starts (so I can upload my program).

Your parents won't let you install computer softwares, right?
* DJ Omnimaga hopes he succeeds in uploading it (no linking issues like I had in college x.x)

Nice to hear. I am curious about what idea you got.

Also guys remember to backup. Sorry if I say this so often lately but many entries died from RAM clears and I see at least one data loss post a week nowadays x.x

I clicked yes because I'm pretty sure I'll make it by the 15th ;D (been working on it every chance I've gotten at school). I just finished the horizontal collisions today, actually. Here is a screenshot just showing off some tiles and the character sprites. I'm not going to go into much detail about it right now (mainly because I'm still a bit unsure about a lot of things :P), but what I can say for sure is that there will be 3 different room sizes (24 x 16, 48 x 8, and 12 x 32), and there will be about four rooms per-level. Also note that you won't be able to fly in the actual game  ;).

Ok now that's just epic win o.o. Nice graphics and I like the scrolling too. Can't wait to see jumping and stuff being added. Will this be a puzzle game or a game with enemies like Mario?
