| Posted by: Hello Jan 10 2009, 10:46 AM |
| Congratulations to DaggerHog for being the runner up in the last competition. This competition's theme is collectibles. You need to make a minigame where the biggest part of the game is about collecting tons of different things. This competition will end on February 1, 2009. |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Jan 10 2009, 10:47 AM |
| Heh, reminds me of most of your games. Nah just kidding, this allows for some potential! I'll probably join the fight. |
| Posted by: Fender Jan 10 2009, 10:50 AM |
| count me in |
| Posted by: Guinea Jan 10 2009, 10:52 AM |
| I wish I had time for this. Who knows. |

| Look at Donkey Kong 64 if anyone needs inspiration. |

| Entering |
| Posted by: JosJuice Jan 10 2009, 11:30 AM |
| This seems interesting. I might enter. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Jan 10 2009, 12:15 PM |
| This could be troublesome...I don't know what I should collect... |
| Posted by: Sergeant DeeY Jan 10 2009, 12:44 PM |
| This is an engine test of my minigame: Baby Mario's Shine Chase |
| Posted by: Elyk Jan 10 2009, 12:46 PM |
| oh cool this allows me to make a puzzle platformer and you guys know that those are the only ones I'm good at |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Jan 10 2009, 12:47 PM |
| Not a bad concept but I can see tons of uncreative games being made out of this. |
| Posted by: Elyk Jan 10 2009, 12:55 PM | ||
well at least the amount of entries will probably be up |
| Posted by: Luigis #1 Jan 10 2009, 01:23 PM |
| Would you call PikMin a Colleting game? because you collet lots of random things in it |
| Posted by: Fender Jan 10 2009, 01:47 PM | ||
i would say so. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Jan 10 2009, 02:03 PM |
| I'm feeling Dig-Dugish...I might do that. |
| Posted by: Yoshbert Jan 10 2009, 02:58 PM |
| I'll be entering this. I've got the Great Cave Offensive in mind as well. |
| Posted by: Neopolis Jan 10 2009, 03:20 PM |
| Collectibles always make things fun. |
| Posted by: LocoRoo Jan 10 2009, 03:25 PM |
| Dibs on a game starring Peach in a cave. |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Jan 10 2009, 03:26 PM | ||
There is nothing such as 'calling dibs'. If someone is making a game with the same concept as yours, tough luck, you just gotta make yours better than his. |
| Posted by: LocoRoo Jan 10 2009, 03:27 PM | ||
If I would have been serious with my post, I wouldn't have just said "a game starring Peach in a cave". Plus I despise "dibs". |
| Posted by: Elyk Jan 10 2009, 03:57 PM |
| I call using mario characters no one else better use them okay |
| Posted by: Black Boo Jan 10 2009, 04:10 PM |
| Actually, Great Cave Offensive is a good idea... But I'll use not a cave, but something else I have yet to figure out! |
| Posted by: Funky Jan 10 2009, 06:01 PM |
| Umm... I have sprites if anyone needs them (custom, yeah), I'd also offer myself as a level designer. I'd help everybody who has the basic running-jumping-colllecting engine. |
| Posted by: Yoshbert Jan 10 2009, 06:34 PM |
| Progress. |
| Posted by: Jlhgomez Jan 10 2009, 10:30 PM |
| Might come up with something... |

| Posted by: Elyk Jan 11 2009, 12:08 AM | ||
no one is trying to stop you |
| Posted by: Wolfgator Jan 11 2009, 03:18 AM | ||
I never said anyone was trying to stop me. |

| Posted by: Wolfgator Jan 11 2009, 04:47 AM |
| I disagree with the dictionary. |
| Posted by: LocoRoo Jan 11 2009, 04:50 AM | ||
I desiagryy with the doiciotnary too. Woirods are funny thingses. Making progress btw. |
| Posted by: Kiage team Jan 11 2009, 12:58 PM |
| What if we, Kiage team wanted to enter? Could we? We want to each make a game and submit it, but we share the same account. I am Buggo and my brother, the other member, is named LogicMan (or L.M. for short). Is it okay if we each make a game?  |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Jan 11 2009, 01:15 PM |
| Elyk, you're making me giggle, stop. |
| Posted by: LocoRoo Jan 11 2009, 02:06 PM | ||
You can each make a game but you can only submit one game per account. A.K.A. you can only submit one game. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Jan 11 2009, 03:18 PM | ||
OR you guys could make a collection of games where you select the game from the main menu. |
| Posted by: LocoRoo Jan 11 2009, 03:18 PM | ||
That'd work too. |
| Posted by: Kiage team Jan 11 2009, 04:01 PM |
| Thanks for telling me. |
| Posted by: Black Boo Jan 11 2009, 05:46 PM |
| Screw it. I'm oiut. But I'll be willing to sprite tiles or some such, but not characters. |
| Posted by: Alex Jan 12 2009, 10:38 AM |
| @ Kiage Team: Why do you share an account? |
| Posted by: Kiage team Jan 12 2009, 12:19 PM | ||
Because we're brothers and sometimes work together. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Jan 12 2009, 03:22 PM |
| Making a game Where you play as a coin Trying to get collected by Mario Feel free to bow down to the glory of this idea. |
| Posted by: Kiage team Jan 12 2009, 03:24 PM |
| *Bows down* |
| Posted by: DaggerHog Jan 12 2009, 04:12 PM |
i was the runner up? cool.  this theme sounds interesting. |
| Posted by: MegaTailzChao Jan 15 2009, 12:36 AM | ||
I swear to god if you do not finish this |
| Posted by: Guinea Jan 15 2009, 02:54 PM | ||
Make this. This idea is so good that I'd steal it if I had time. |
| Posted by: El Huesudo II Jan 15 2009, 07:34 PM | ||
Holy cow- That's brilliant. FINISH IT |
| Posted by: Elyk Jan 17 2009, 07:58 PM |
| whipping out the gravity gimmick again for mine and coin lots of coins edit: okay so this is extremely boring I need to think up something fun like Keyser |
| Posted by: Grant Jan 17 2009, 09:14 PM |
| Argh. Even though I love this competition idea, I doubt I'll be able to participate due to my workload. Maybe I still can try making something, if I somehow get a good idea and if I begin working on it several days from now when I've gotten my school-related affairs in order. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Jan 18 2009, 09:23 PM |
| So like you're a coin in this dark platform level (because when mario isn't nearby in the levels the lights go out) and you start hearing the mario theme and the screams of dead goombas and other enemies in increasing volume coming closer to you. But that mario is a quick sucker, so you'd better get in position when he comes through or he'll miss your little coin ass. |
| Posted by: Luigis #1 Jan 18 2009, 11:42 PM |
| FINISH IT! I want to play it! |
| Posted by: MegaTailzChao Jan 18 2009, 11:57 PM | ||
oh god yes |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Jan 20 2009, 11:03 PM |
| So do I make this thing trippy as hell as suggested in IRC or like, more normal? |
| Posted by: Pikax Jan 21 2009, 11:28 AM |
| I vote trippy. |
| Posted by: MegaTailzChao Jan 21 2009, 02:48 PM | ||
well making it not trippy would be a STUPID idea! |
| Posted by: Black Boo Jan 21 2009, 07:50 PM |
| Trippy... Had an idea, went with it, stopped because I know I don't have time. SEE YOU IN FEBUARY MGC 1ST PLACE BADGE! |
| Posted by: Boomb Jan 22 2009, 02:43 PM |
| This is a hard one... |
| Posted by: Alex Jan 22 2009, 02:45 PM | ||
The idea is so weird and original that I love it. Please make it. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Jan 22 2009, 03:39 PM |
| If someone can tell me how to make or direct me to a tutorial of: Making a looping gif OR a procedurally generated effect of old film/ film grain I'll post the demo/mockup |
| Posted by: Jlhgomez Jan 24 2009, 11:38 PM |
| My minigame will probably become bigger, so I will not have time to complete it. If I not complete it in time, I'll make it anyways! |

| I quit because I deleted accidentally my entry.... I'll wait until the next comp starts |
| Posted by: Ultramario Feb 1 2009, 08:16 AM |
| What the hell? Am I seriously the only one who has entered? |
| Posted by: Elyk Feb 1 2009, 10:58 AM |
| I thought the deadline was the 11th. |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Feb 1 2009, 01:30 PM |
| Push that deadline I have been doing too much shit to enter this lately. But I'll enter. |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Feb 1 2009, 01:31 PM |
| waiiit, almost done with mine <<: |
| Posted by: Keyser Soze Feb 1 2009, 01:37 PM |
| Also I refuse to release mine till I get this film grain effect working. Plus I hope this will be the last game I ever make with gamemaker. |

| Quit this time. I was lazy to finish it =P |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Feb 2 2009, 07:41 AM |
| time to start the voting I guess? |
| Posted by: Boomb Feb 2 2009, 08:00 AM |
| I think you should give us some more time. |
| Posted by: Pikax Feb 2 2009, 08:59 AM |
| I can only see two entries. I thought there had to be more than that before voting starts, or am I confusing minigame competitions with one of the others? |
| Posted by: Black Squirrel Feb 2 2009, 10:19 AM |
| Yeah you'd be better off extending this until someone slaps together something. |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Feb 2 2009, 02:09 PM |
| Since Hello probably isn't gonna post, I'm gonna take the word for a minute and extend it to the 15th. That should be enough time, without a complete waste of it. |
| Posted by: Elyk Feb 2 2009, 02:21 PM |
| I'm throwing something else together just to let you guys know. edit2: http://www.box.net/shared/s0kqvnryyz |
| Posted by: MegaTailzChao Feb 2 2009, 09:33 PM |
| **** yes more time i love you guys TIME TO PROCRASTINATE EVEN MORE |
| Posted by: Hausuke Feb 2 2009, 09:40 PM | ||
Your game hurts my eyes. |

| You disappointed me MB. |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Feb 3 2009, 08:29 AM |
| this is where I realize the Goomba jumping 'glitch' is intended |
| Posted by: Guinea Feb 3 2009, 09:13 AM |
| Ultramario, I beat your game. I have to say the ending is one of the best I've ever seen. |
| Posted by: Gemini Feb 7 2009, 12:17 AM |
| aww, mine was gonna be good, but my laptop's harddrive got fried and now I only have the stage which I had on my jumpdrive to test on my desktop I had recreated smb 1-1 in 3d and made an engine with jumpng, coin collecting and camera control, but know its just te model of the stage (the texture were even lost because they were on my laptop external from the game  |
| Posted by: Pikax Feb 7 2009, 05:18 PM |
| I have an entry. EDIT: See my next post for my entry's current version. |
| Posted by: Ultramario Feb 7 2009, 06:25 PM | ||
I'd suggest removing those unnecessary room transition effects, speed up the walking segments a bit and add a variable jump. |
| Posted by: Wolfgator Feb 7 2009, 06:26 PM |
| Above, and great job! |
| Posted by: Pikax Feb 8 2009, 05:27 AM | ||
I actually find room transitions necessary, but I can work on the other two pointers you gave me. EDIT: Also, I need to add a pause button! EDIT: And it will have to wait until tomorrow. EDIT: Here is the improved version with variable jumping and a pause function. Yellow and red coins appear more frequently to make the running sections shorter. EDIT: Now you can switch between fullscreen and windowed mode by pressing F4. EDIT: If the game doesn't work for you, it will most likely be because the save file of the old version is on your computer. Delete the file named "savegame" and it should work. |
| Posted by: Pikax Feb 14 2009, 01:22 PM |
| I wonder if we're going to get any last minute entries tomorrow. |
| Posted by: Ultramario Feb 14 2009, 02:42 PM |
| http://www.sendspace.com/file/9xuakh Beat it without dieing for a special surprise. |
| Posted by: Guinea Feb 14 2009, 03:59 PM | ||
"Conglatulations, you beat a great game!!!"? |
| Posted by: Ultramario Feb 14 2009, 04:39 PM | ||
You're underestimating my creativity. |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Feb 14 2009, 06:11 PM | ||
Your filters tell otherwise! |
| Posted by: Elyk Feb 16 2009, 10:13 PM |
| I think this is over now. |
| Posted by: Mecha the Slag Feb 17 2009, 01:28 AM |
| voting is still going |
| Posted by: Elyk Feb 17 2009, 01:31 AM | ||
I was not aware it had started, sorry. |
