Emzee Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Three, are text-based Choose Your Own Adventure games allowed? Ones that are complete with working stats and everything?If it would belong in the Fan Created Games forum ( and the RPG or Games and Trivia forum), it's acceptable for this contest. In other words, what ever game you design must run on a computer. "hey girl: here’s an idea, but… it’s up to you: You’re the boss of this operation."

FallenCor Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I'm given to understand that both Pacific Rim and Attack on Titan involve the term "jaeger." Will we be required to do the same?Required to use the term jaeger? No.'Jaeger' is simply old German for 'hunter'; and I'm pretty sure it's just a coincidence that both movies use that name/term. :vAnyhow, YES!

Hahli Husky Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 Ooh, that radio drama idea sounds very appealing. Can BZP members collaborate with other members/non-members, given that the coordinator/main talent is the one who enters and "wins?" Because, while I have range, I might want some help. If I get it rolling.Hmmm interesting question! I would say yes, provided that the coordinator is the agreed-upon entrant and the members helping understand this clearly. Can we have multiple Titans/monsters in the scene we're making?Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesster Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 What might happen if you did actually submit a playable proof of concept along with the design info for a FCG? (Don't worry, not another joke game, serious this time.) I have an idea, but I'd like to actually try making something of it in addition to writing it out.

Underscore Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 If you enter an idea for a game, can you finish it later? For example, let's say I have a an idea for a Rahkshi fighting game. I enter it in the contest. After the contest is over, can I actually build and finish it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emzee Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Can I make a Minecraft Modification for Fan created games? I'm afraid not, as you're already working on a game like that. See rule #1: 1) All game ideas must be your new and original work and cannot have been presented before, whether on paper or as an actual game or game demo. Also, game ideas cannot be direct copies of other titles (e.g. “Bionicle version of [popular game]”). Inspiration is always fine, but the idea here is you see your ideas. What might happen if you did actually submit a playable proof of concept along with the design info for a FCG? (Don't worry, not another joke game, serious this time.) I have an idea, but I'd like to actually try making something of it in addition to writing it out.If you can get one in by the deadline, that's fine. Just be sure that the write-up has all of the required sections. If you enter an idea for a game, can you finish it later? For example, let's say I have a an idea for a Rahkshi fighting game. I enter it in the contest. After the contest is over, can I actually build and finish it?Sure, you're allowed to do that.

Amready knew that :)I know I've been working on a game like that (And I think it's rather awesome that you still remember after a two month hiatus). But no, I actually wasn't planning to use that game. I was planning to scram the nether dimension and replace it with a Ga-Koro dimension, where one could battle a 20x enlarged squid boss. So a totally different game(altough I actually was planning to share some codings between the two games, like for the toa tools one could pick, but that rather minor right?) And no there won't be a squid battle in the finished True Modification :)So now a little bit better explained... Would this be allowed. I'm back!

Do both of them get the prize?There's only one prize per win, so you'd either have to split it up or decide who gets the prize. Must said monsters and titans be as such relative to us in terms of size/scale/scope/etc, or just to the PoV of the characters portrayed? And can the monsters or titans be more worldly threats like angered elephants, tigers, and fanboys; or do they have to be truly dangerous and/or fantastical things such as dragons, robots, demi-gods, and fanboys? -Toa Levacius Zehvor Just in regards to the PoV, yes. I would say the titans and monsters should be things that don't actually exist, but you can plug such ideas into that: terrifying giant elephant and tiger chimeras, or titans designed and operated by crazed fanboys, if you will.

~kh Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 So here's the deal. I understand the reasoning behind having game ideas for the FCG contest because they take a good amount of time to make and if not there wouldn't be many entries anyhow. BUT if someone has an actual demo/finished game to enter, does this end up taking presidence over a game idea? Like, obviously, a two-week 2D platformer probably will pale in comparison to, say, "Skyrim, but with BIONICLE". But if someone actually makes the 2D platformer, does that get some extra merit because there's actually something to play? Basically, are we voting on how good the ideas are or on the actual product you can deliver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If demos mattered, then I might as well make it regular FCG contest. I don't want this contest to be about simple ideas either. The more grandiose (provided it's still realistic) or original the idea, the better it is in my opinion. So basically, demos must be no more than a supplement to the write-up of your game idea.
