Pong Tournament

Postby NightOfHorror » Mon Apr 02, 2012 8:44 pm

I am having a pong tournament. I will enter myself. Prize will be the April Game Tournament Trophy. You must make a game that is Pong related. Judges must pm me, and I will need three to five. Must submit by April 21st and judging will be a week long process and winner will be announced on April 29th to winner and 30th to all. Game can be one already made too, or in the process. Judging will be scored on the following-

Pong originality-x/10.
Correct Theme (almost everyone should get full points on this)x/10
GamePlay-x/5
Graphics-x/5
BONUS, 3D- x/10

Overall score: x/30
3D is only a tiebreaker, meaning, if someone has twenty, and another has nineteen, even if he gets two points on 3D, he still loses. Say, both had twenty, than if one had zero and the other had one, than the one with one point in 3D wins. Tie Breakers other than will be decided by judges.

Next tournament will be announced May 1. GOOD LUCK! (I myself won't be judge). Judges can not participate.

Well, happy, let me say this, I would rather prefer you to be one or the other, but if you just dying to be both than you can. You won't be able to judge your own game though.

I can judge but I'm too busy to make a game :)

That's fine, I will just make a game, that'll be enough work on it's own. :) I look forward to seeing it judged and played.

Out of ideas? Here's some stuff to help you out!
-What would your vision of the end of the world be?
-Watch a good movie.
-Play other people's games! That's the best way to get ideas. Don't just copy their game though.

Great, this is going to be a good one if you all you guys make a game. I like having competition.

By the way, I wanted to share announcements so you know this stuff. I will tell you the routine always these tournaments and next months tournament to be nice
-May- Pacman
-October- Halloween
-November- Thanksgiving game
-December- Christmas or New Year
-January- last year, so 2013, January's theme is 2012

On every January, there will the last year champion. So in 2013, January, it will be the 2012 tournament with the theme, 2012.
Have a fun time and I hope you participate. :D

just bumping to let people be reminded in case more are planning on joining. Any prize ideas by the way. The only prize is to participate in the 2012 championship game. If you are okay with just that and bragging rights then tell me, but if there is any realistic ideas for a prize tell me. Don't ask for my money, or a license. (I am not sponsored by Mak so that is not my decision).
