May Tournament- PacMan

Postby NightOfHorror » Wed May 02, 2012 8:37 pm

Hello everyone. We just had our first successful tournament last month, and let us congratulate again Sky for winning. This month is going to be harder and more professional. May's theme is pac-man. The grading rubric has been advanced, and I have a new rule. For every three judges, one can enter.

The rubric is as follows:

theme-x/10 (Does it follow the basic principles of pac-man games.)
originality- x/10 (Is this a new pac-man game, or is it the same as the others.)
creativity- x/10 (Do they use their elements in a refreshing, nice way.)
game-play- x/10 (Is the game fun, have barely any bugs, and make you want to play it.
graphics- x/10 (Only grade graphics the game creator made himself)
music/sound- x/5 (Did they pick sound and music that go along with the game's game-play and pace.)
overall- x/20 (How in general, do you feel the game was.)
Total Score- x/75 points (Add up the above elements to get total score.)
Bonus- power-ups- x/10 (Does the game have original, new boosts for the player.)

As mentioned in last tournament, bonus is just a tie-breaker so it doesn't add with total score. That means if player has 75 points and ten bonus points, he does not have 85 points, if two people have same total score, use bonus to break tie, and if there is still a tie, it is up to the master judge to decide how tie will be called.

You may submit already made games or games you make during the tournament's time. The deadline is the 23rd, no exceptions. Judge week will be 24th- 30th, and the May Awards is on the 31st. Do not notify winner this time before May Awards.

All people wanting to be judges, please pm me that you would like to become a judge.

Get started, and GOOD LUCK! :D

Thinking outside the box is what we need. I am entering and submitting a way off game from regular pac-man. Just try to follow basic principles of pac-man, so you don't lose too much theme points.

Oh yeah. Round 2 between HBlade and I. This time I feel that my game will just have to win. :lol:

I have an idea but I don't know if I'll have enough time to do it. It involves pac-man and strategy :)

Well, if H doesn't do it, then I will be only contestant, and automatic winner, so it would be appreciated to have some competition.

Thank you H, but I already got all my sprites. If you want to enter though, we could always have a team project.

okay, well, I guess I will send game, explain what needs to be done, and I'll let you choose what you want to do. Not right now though because I am about to go to school. Also, I know the stress of those tournaments. I was just in a Taekwondo tournament (but it was just an in school tournament and not a national tournament), and gosh those are stressful.
