Indie in a Week 2!

[hiromu656 27]

I have like 5 minutes worth of gameplay, we'll see if I get it done. What's kind of holding me back the most is that my game might not be all that "holiday" themed as it probably should be. So I've been having trouble making it work.

Ok I Don't Know About The missing things but a patch is in the gamejolt replace that map file and that could fix it i don't know 100%

[Jeanne d'Ys 166]

Almost everyone seems to be finishing (or lightning speeding) their entries, while mine's still on the databasing.

 

Oh, well... I guess it's time to do the "Butcher it, at least it would be playable." thing! XP

 

 

Man, I wish I haven't been so busy XD (And then Maki-chan actually granted my wish... By making me got expelled from the university and got the HTML project cancelled. Earned much free time, indeed)

 

P.S. Yay for my 103^th post!

As for my game ~ I'm not sure if I'll be able to put the full story in time ... or even story in general. The gameplay is pretty ready, but it's so silly, that it'll be better to hide that in a basement lol.

 

So... we'll see what happens.

Ha. We're in the same boat, then.

My gameplay features and the main idea of the story are ready, but the "main storytelling executions" are... Well...

 

(Also, I finally made a blog topic about mine. Can't believe I forgot lel)

I regret to say that I will not have time to finish my entry  
I've been working hard on it when I can but with a new baby coming later this week and work actually being somewhat busy lately, I haven't had the time to polish it up like I wanted making the project incomplete.
I hope to see how this plays out because of all of you talented people making games that look awesome! 
Anyway, best of luck to you all.

Ehmmm... quick check,

How many people are still in the contest? It seems like 99% of people have quit.

[Jeanne d'Ys 166]

I'm still here!

 

(Although my game has like 5 minutes of gameplay lel XD)

[Seriel 830]

Alright, another important message!

 

With the recent dropping out of members, I urge you, release something. ANYTHING.

If you have more than a title screen (Intro or w/e) then upload it. You can upload more later. Even if it sucks, at least you have a chance.

You can't win with nothing

[philteredkhaos 131]

Present and accounted for. Barely. Been up all night. I should have stayed up all night tonight, not yesterday...

 

Maps are done, and made some events, still making up the story as I go. Gameplay probably won't be as epic as I'd planned, but we'll see what I can manage in ....oh 24 hours 10 minutes....

[Jeanne d'Ys 166]

Story and characters are done (You guys can see my blog entry for more details), game mechanics are in progress, databasing is almost done, mapping is barely there XD, resources are in progress (Both self-created and imported).

Uh... I am kind of ashamed to say this again, but I think I am also quitting.  I ran into many problems today and I now I don't have enough time to release anything.

 

So sorry, Jackus. :/

[DrassRay-Jacob 183]

I'll consider what you said, Jackus and submit my project as is... it's playable at least but really short =P

[Seriel 830]

*starts riot*

 

Not even a demo...? ...a small map? ANYTHING?

 

Everyone's quitting

[philteredkhaos 131]

*riot spreads*

GIVE US MAPS! WE WANT A DEMO!


(I am still in Jackus. There is like 6 of us left, I think.... )

I am really sorry, I was going to work on a demo today, but then RL situation got a twist and the day and my mood got depressed. :/

 

I apologize a second time, Jackus. But if I release a demo right now, it would be really bugged and silly enough to play, so I am pretty sorry. :/

[philteredkhaos 131]

RikiFive, I hope you make an entry...otherwise, I am dropping an RTP bomb on ya'll.... There are some custom/non-rtp resources, but still... Its basically RTP

 

And nobody wants to see RTP be the only entry...

I'm also wondering about this... Seriously, how many people are still here? =P

I'm not sure if I'll manage to put a story (cutscenes), but the game is at least playable, so it has to be enough. Still one day left. . .

 

------------------------------------------------

*rage quit*

Aw balls, what's happening? It's a game in a week and it has to be as silly as possible. You don't have to create awesome games, just quickly make thingie for fun! Stop quitting and do something silly! A game named "Eric And Ericians in Ericland - The Quest of Ericstone" would be more than enough! =3

 

Umm.. So even if I'll not finish mine, at least I'll post it, because it's 'sillibly' playable. =3

Also, I just noticed a thing in philteredkhaos's sig. lol XD

maybe the next contest should be Indie 2 Weeks ^^;

[Seriel 830]

No.

[Jeanne d'Ys 166]

Well, I think that a week is enough. Although "enough" isn't actually a right term.

As Riki said, it's not about "Whip-up a good game in a week", but "Let's see what you can whip-up in a week" XD

 

Also, the incident that made chaos this time isn't about the short time limit; it's that most of the members are quite busy and have little time (Like me and JacobM) or suddenly has something unfortunate that mess up with the contest (like Crescent).

 

Although, Ii2W doesn't sound too shabby at all; it's like semi-IMGC XD

I blame christmas. Terrible timing on my part.

The current acronym is IIAW

 

And...

    ^ I 1000% agree. This was the purpose of the conntest. ^

[philteredkhaos 131]

I love 1 week contests. I can crank out a silly game, get out of my comfort zone and try not to pull out all of my hair bug hunting the final product! Such a challenge!

Just don't forget to turn off that Autorun or clear those Fade-Outs, though

[Seriel 830]

Aaaaaahhh i've got that desire to make something...

But what? I can't enter my own contest.

Hmmmmmm....
