(edit: none of the following applies anymore. uh.)
I guess I don't understand this site. There are plenty of submissions on here that get a rating, such as 4/10 and 3/10. I don't understand how so many games that get 3 or 4 out of ten were accepted by the team but something that I have put a ton of work into and has been received very well by others was immediately flushed down the toilet.I'm talking about my game The Adventures of Bill: Super Balls of Steel, an homage and mockery of my favorite SNES classics where every single piece of it comes from me. I made all the graphics, made all the music, made all the everything.Here's just a few screenshots:
I know graphics don't make a game, but I think effort and presentation can make a simple game more enjoyable because it is good to look at.I just wanted to make a pleasant game, but I guess "it lacks origanality and is a bit boring, not very exciting and not very addicting."Excuse me, lacks originality? 2d Halo was just accepted into the WIP section. The person didn't make up Halo. I'd call that unoriginal.Someone wanna tell me how this site works?
It actually looks good, I'm not really sure why it wasn't accepted. Perhaps because of the name? Although, 'balls' is hardly the worst word seen around here.
It's called Halo 2d, and that is insulting me.
It's because that one guy who kept whining about the queue, so flashback gave him mod powers for two days. so, he deleted a bunch of games to make it look like he accepted them all.
Hes getting a warning from me. This is the 7th thing someone said something about being denied that was actually good.Re submit it.Ah, so maybe that's what happened to my wonderful example?
Yes, that's what happened to your example. Last time I logged in (yesterday), there were 20 examples in the queue. 24 hours later, there are 4 examples in the queue.
Only one of the 16 verified are on the front page.Wow, I had no idea. I'm sorry I came off as really bitchy in this but I hope people understand.
And Graydon, I wasn't insulting you so much as comparing us. Mine is unoriginal just as much as yours, and yours was accepted. That's what I was saying.Yeah, d'oh, I'll resubmit it I guess.Actually mine was a retro idea of the Halo genre. And I'm starting work on it again.
So um… why was this allowed to happen? Whining or not, you can't just give mod powers to random people just to get them out of your hair. There would be so much of that going on if that were reasonable.
Anyone with complaints about game acceptance over the last 2 days should submit them <a href=http://64digits.com/index.php?cmd=pm_compose&to_user=u1bd2005>here</a>.
flashback is dumb, thats why.
