F4D - Judgment Day
Posted on January 10, 2012 at 15:06
So after all these extensions, the day of judgment has finally come. Here's a recap.
JUDGING Judging begins today, and the first round will go for two days, giving you some time to play the games (stay on top of this please). Then on Thursday, the second round will begin, where the top five proceed for one last chance at first place. For the first round, votes MUST be submitted via PM, with your top three favorite games. Try to take several things into account, including gameplay, innovation, and how well the game fits the theme. For the second round, everyone only gets one vote. The results will be announced on Friday. And without further ado, I give you the games. IF I MISSED ANYBODY, it is your job to let me know. Also, if you found lethal bugs that you'd like to fix, I'll allow you to replace the file you sent me. THE PARTICIPANTS Deep Freeze by link2x101 and anthonyloprimo ![]() Download Notes: The game is still in early stages, however it's still very much playable. Time constraints from the competition and my schoolwork (along with my partner's job) definitely posed a challenge when trying to make these things better Epic Christmas by Mega ![]() Screenshots (1) Download Eternal Winter: The Spirit Breaker by Qwilderwibben Download Notes: Press F1 for story. Frozen Demo by JID and Colseed ![]() Download Notes: Controls: RMB to aim, LMB to shoot, Hold Shift to sprint. Jared the Friendly Pumpkin - Christmas Edition by Stevenup7002 ![]() Screenshots (1) Download Kizuna: The Girl Who Saved Christmas by Purianite Screenshots (1 2) Download Download - Modded Version with a D3D shader injection by TplusK with 2x FXAA Notes: Backface culling may crap out randomly. Ogres & Elves by Iasper ![]() Screenshots (1 2) Download Notes: Graphics and music can be upgraded with ingame money. This is also a demo. Persistence by Acid ![]() Download Notes: Minor glitches throughout... :( I kinda broke it a little bit. But it's still playable. Snowball Commander by Unaligned ![]() Screenshots (1 2) Download Super Snowball Fighters by DaggerHog ![]() Screenshots (1 2) Download Notes: Extract the files before playing. The game is complete, albeit with a crappy ending. Surrounded With White by sirXemic ![]() Download 1 (without installer, needs redistributables Download 2 (without installer, not sure if it works) Notes: Download redistributables here. If the installer doesn't work, use redistributables. The physics in this game are awful (can climb up walls when crystal is underneath you) and make it boring pretty quick. Made in XNA 4.0 Transition by Flashback ![]() Screenshots (1) Download Notes: Runs on Android! The Fall of Sarenta by Kilin Screenshots (1 2) Download Notes: Not officially entering, but I put in the work, so I wanted to be among all of you. If you like the game, I'd like to hear, but all votes will be discarded. Also, I ended up removing a boss and skimping on the final boss. While it makes me sad, I still think it turned out all right. Bugs: A few people have found a bug on the crystal boss, where if you don't focus one crystal, you'll actually get an error that'll crash the game. So if you want to see the (in my opinion) cool ending, focus one crystal at a time. I've fixed it already but am too lazy to upload right now. CONCLUSION There you have it. Please follow the guidelines presented in the judging section. PRIZES There will be five finalists. Each finalist will receive a prize, but the final round of judging will be what decides who wins. Confirmed: First Place - Left 4 Dead 2 - $20 cash prize - Showcase from Qwilderwibben (publicity!) - Dungeon Defenders OR Terraria (you pick) - The Polynomial Second Place - Left 4 Dead 2 - Terraria - $15 cash prize Third Place - Left 4 Dead 2 - Terraria - $10 cash prize Fourth Place - Left 4 Dead 2 - $5 cash prize Fifth Place - Reassuring pat on the back - If any of the finalists own the games mentioned above, or refuse any of the prizes, this finalist has a chance at them (don't get your hopes up!).

Prevent user from rating again Dev - Pages Dev - Reporting Quote And is it possible to beat the floating guy in JID & Colseed's game? Yes. I just didn't explain how to beat him at all. What you have to do is lure him towards the gas tanks on the ground, then shoot them. Blowing him up. You have to do this 3 times in order to kill him. Also, with the flying peices of wood or whatever, you can shotgun them to destroy them. We're going to keep working on this game, even after the comp is over. We pretty much made most of the stuff in the demo in only about 4 or 5 hours.

I've played the first five games so far, and they're all awesome. I keep thinking about good things that stand out and thinking about saying them, but there are too many, and every game has them. ('cept stevenup cheated... lol but I liked both the Jared games, so don't get me wrong :P)
I'll make a blog when I finish all of the games. |
