Minigame Competition #10, OVER! VOTE IN THE VOTING TOPIC

Um I have to cann this project. Sorry

use. this.

And I think that I'm done with this project. So changes are probably not going to happen.

FIVE DAYS LEFT!

First OFFICIAL screenshot of our entry + gameplay explanation!

In the screenshot you can see
Mario
Snow
Ice
Strange lines with numbers
A Star cursor (turned on the side, therefore hard to see)
Targets

Explanation:
You control the game with the mouse only.
Mouse left -> Mario moves left
Mouse right -> Mario moves right
Mouse fast in the air -> Mario jumps
The red lines indicate the tolerance. The smaller it is, the less you have to move your mouse. Can be set with the arrow keys. They can also be switched off, but for beginners they are maybe a help.

Now throwing snowballs:
Stand still and pick up a snowball with the mouse by clicking under Mario.
If Mario stands on snow, he will pick up a snow ball.
If Mario stands on ice, he will pick up nothing.
Swing the mouse and let go of the left mouse button. Mario throws a snowball.
To make this easier, the right mouse button keeps Mario from reacting on the position of the mouse (running and jumping).
The tree and other objects can catch your snowballs, they're good to hide behind.
The targets are for training this.

Enemies:
Snowmen who just stand there and throw snowballs. You can defeat them by some action I will later define.
Shy Guys who play tactically against you. They hide behind trees, pick up snowballs and throw them at you. Some can jump to avoid your balls.

*in a super smash bros annoucer voice* "BREAK THE TARGETS!!!!!"


Looks pretty cool guinea

It ends tomorrow.
Anyone wants an extension? I could give one or two weeks since this was a very difficult one.

I don't need more time, I'm really excited to find out what happens.

fine here.

Haven't even started. Oh well.

Same here, Cept i did start it with a title screen...
So, not much work here, DMANjdaijsdioj!
er, nah, im ok no extension time for moi. no way uh huh absoluley no chance what so *Shot*

Looks like we won't have an extention.
Ok, so is everyobe's entries ready?
Please post the final entry now, since the minigame is over.

@Guinea: Come on, post our entry, please?

It's not over yet.
It ends the 26th at midnight and one minute later top five voting starts.
So this should be around 4 hours.

It's midnight here...
so get our entry now please?

It's not midnight in London.
London is the city I'm talking about when I say midnight.
3 hours to go.

The entry is finished.
It's most probably the crappiest finished entry I've ever posted in a mini-game competition, still the idea itself is the thing that we want to show you.
I know that Slash's and my chances of winning aren't the biggest, but nevertheless, here is Mario - Snowball Revolution.

Mario - Snowball Revolution (right-click and save as)
And please read the Help File. It is NECESSARY to read it, because all gameplay mechanics are totally new!!!

It was a race against time and time won.
I hope you can still enjoy it and get an idea of what we tried to do.
Just use the snowballs to break the targets and that's it. It doesn't even have a goal message or something. Just press ESC to close the game.
Thanks.

In less than an hour the competition is officially over and someone can sum up the entries in a post and have the voting started.

I just want you to know that I won't take part in the next competition, because this working on the last day until midnight creeps me out.
Also time is an important factor I don't have anymore.
I want to focus more on my projects like AME, MFGGSB and also LoZ:tBB.

Seeya and good night folks, I'm finished off for today.

wait till I get my entry in just give me like 2 hours.

All right I think I was the last to enter so here it is, I didn't get to finish it, :'( oh well I tried.

MarioMusic.zip

That's actually pretty cool, but lacks any real Mario character.

We start voting now?

btw I am happy with MY entry. Even though it lacks stuff, it is still playable and acceptable for this comp.

Yes, we can start voting now, but first did everyone posted their final entry?
