so we got a bunch of folks who know about computers and dream of making awful games

why ain't you shut up about your awful game idea and make it

here's the deal

lets have a contest

lets talk about how the contest should go

lets talk about who's gonna enter


it ain't take a large amount of time to make a simple game or a single level of a larger game, and that's all we need

what do you say

    That's true but on the other hand nobody is ever going to make a decent looking Zelda mod (like even just armor).

    It depends on what kind of game.
    Do I have the time to whip up a shitty, shitty, shitty 2D engine?
    Yeah.

    But not much more than that.
    Do you actually know C++ too Knob?

    Whoops, didn't see you'd made a thread for this already so I posted in the Aughts thread:

    I would totally enter this! My art sucks though.

    Actually, what would be cool since we have so many awesome artists here would be to do something like TIGSource's Assemblee: a bunch of artists make some assets and then a bunch of programmers/designers make a game out of them

    well I fiddled around in Hammer a couple years ago. nothing good, just the beginner tutorials and whatnot

    never had any incentive to buckle down and do anything with it really. I could learn, I guess? going to have a good bit of free time coming up

    so maybe?

    I can do programming and design, for 2D stuff I'm most comfortable with flash, for 3D stuff I'd probably take a look at Unity, I'm not a low level coder so I like to make use of libraries and shit that do all the hard work for me.
