haha. oh my. 😀
i’d say we don’t take the deadline that seriously. if a project is a submitted some hours after midnight german time, that will be fine.
mario vb crashes? i cannot confirm that, works nice for me. when does it happen? does it always crash at the same spot?
btw, you should stop complaining and be thankful for the cool stuff people create in their spare time and release here for free for everyone to enjoy. try to write something yourself and you will quickly realize what people are actually achieving.
tron vb has been released after the compo has started, so it is perfectly fine to submit it. even if the first release was a non-compo release.
alright. so we will have at least three entries ready for the deadline: mario vb, mario kart and a yet unannounced game by another member. enough to give out all prizes. maybe there will be more entries shortly before the end of the compo? we will see.
anyway, i think that’s enough to not push back the deadline. so guys, i am looking forward to your entries. 🙂
Yeah, that’s the way it works, first enter the question in the standard window, then, on the next window, you can add the poll options. i think it’s stupid, but that’s the way the forum software handles it. 🙁
yeah, you’re right, it should be “north america”, not “usa”. changed that.
so finally the article is online! i actually did a quite longish interview with the author matt kwong a while ago. too bad there is (was) no way to get one of the vbs. btw, i was told that the vbs were not sealed, aka shrinkwrapped, in contrast to what the article says.
this is not the first game to have multiple pushers, those have been around before, called multiban levels, there are even some with a dozen pushers. sadly, the levels included in the multiblox are actually ALL two player levels ever created, plus some created or modified by myself.
i don’t want to completely change the way the graphics work, btw. 😉 i just think that the ‘pushers’ need some non flat, stereoscopic graphics, but i have yet been unable to create something goodlooking myself…
Indeed that’s a good idea. I originally wanted to include something like this in the Dev Wiki, but it’s too long winded to do it there. So we could either just create (a) sub forum(s), or a dedicated section. for a dedicated section, i could take any photo uploading module for xoops and modify it, or even write one myself. but the latter might take a while. the question is, what functionality do we need? and can the easiest solution, this forum, suit the needs?
1. yes, http://www.vr32.de/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=158&forum=1
2. if you don’t want to bid on the auction yourself, i don’t see why links should not be posted…
3. yes, they’re not ultra rare, but still uncommon. i think i will bid on those unless they go very high. 😀
yes, there will be new ones. it seems that we are finally over the production problems we had. currently we are looking into new ways of creating boxes. we will probably have future boxes printed professionally, directly on cardboard. so no more stickers on baseball boxes, but original ones.
please feel free to preorder yours! you can still cancel it. plus it will still take some more weeks or months until we have catched up on all the preorders. 😉
simple, clean. better to read. site search is a nice addition, but does not seem to work yet? mot to mention that i am looking forward to new updates vey much. 🙂
why don’t you just play tron vb on reality boy? 🙂 it is actually a complete, finished game.
i think 5 to 6 projects would actually be a nice number of entries for a vb coding competition, also considering their quality. and who knows how many people are secretly working on projects which won’t be unveiled before october 1st? one more month of patience and we will know. 🙂
