Basically, 3 days to complete a game, at the end of it, there will be a public vote on the best one. DC points/custom tags for prizes.

Anyone interested?

What if I were to make a game in 72 hours and 6 minutes, would that still count? Being serious though, I think it'd be better if you put another objective towards the comp, perhaps a sport game, or a war game. Anyone could submit a game and say they made it in 72 hours, (although you maybe able to tell when you look at the properties) yet it's still possible to cheat that.

So perhaps a few guidelines, just incase we get any "cheaters." Hmmm?

Sounds good. Always a good chance to practice, if nothing else.

I was thinking about that Bromios, so I was probably going to throw out an objective game you know (space shooter, war, etc).

I think the theme should be "RPGs in the style of Squaresoft"

Not in 72 hours they haven't.

I don't think an RPG is even a tangible goal in 72 hours. Even a crappy one takes longer than that. You could maybe make a overmap system and battle system... but to load a storyline? Pretty unlikely.

I could do that theme in 72 hours easy. It wouldn't be Final Fantasy XIXIVLCMMIII, but it's doable.
Actually I've been wanting to make a Gargoyle's Quest clone for a while now.

I'm talking with club about refixing the general poll and allowing us lowly admins to change it, so that's where voting might be handled. So I guess this comps a go. Details to follow.

Exactly. I want to make a real time battle system which awards you 'Dexterity' and 'Wisdom' for beating up little goblins and stealing their potions.

Er, wrong game. You know what I mean.

Looks like everybody wants a RPG contest. That probably means we'll get a Mario clone contest. Oh, wait. It's Shabadabadoo, so it will be about anime. I'm crying.

right, cause EVERY thing I do is anime related; I've got more originality than that. Besides, if I did say what I was planning, ppl would start working now. But maybe I'll start the comp soon.

I know you cant say what kind of game it has to be before the competition is announced. But can you please say a month in advance what the start and finish date is going to be? Its not exactly fair if someone doesnt know about the comp until 1 hour left.

Also, they wont be able to start early because they dont know what kind of game it will be.
