Intro
A long time ago, a game called Platformer was released. This was a revolutionary, as it was the beginning in a long string of Platform games. If it wasn't for this game, the concept of Mario would not have been created.
Now, it seems like all the original game idea's have been sucked up by the corporations, leaving no room for Indie game developers to design something new.
However, it has been said by many people, including myself, that there will always be something Unique out there. Thus, I made this contest. It is designed to be able to be entered by game designers and game players.
Task
Your task is to come up with some new, revolutionary idea that can be implemented into a game. Whether it is an entirely new battle system, a new way of movement, or an entirely new game type!~ You do not have to turn it into a game. It is not rocket science. All you have to do is make the idea.
If it is hard to explain, make a chart or some picture of it!~
Judging
You will be judged on:
How Unique it is
How fun it would be
How well it is explained
If it is used already
You will not be judged on:
How hard it is to make
Having images (Unless it is necessary for explaining.)
If you make games or play them
Prizes
First place: Two months VIP membership [I]or[/I] A custom, white, Indiegaming T-shirt.
Second Place: Whatever first place doesn't choose
Third Place: 2000 Credits on the indiegaming board.
The T-shirt:
How to Enter
Just post a reply to this topic describing your Game Mechanics Idea. Make it very explanatory. Even go into Microsoft Paint if you must and create an image of what the concept would look like.
Due by the end of January!~
Other Information
If you win the T-shirt, we will PM you asking for your mailing address and your shirt size.
When we say Game Mechanics, we mean ideas of a system. An Example Game Mechanic is the movement system. Another is the battle system. Even another is the Gravity system.
Come up with a unique way to do one or more of these systems.
You may enter as many times as you like. But, you can only win ONE time.
And, Keep in mind that you can not trade your VIP privileges to other people. It is kept to your account.
You must be a member of indiegaming.org to participate!~
