Cinematic Contest

[Leon 55]

Okay, most sites have your mapping contests, some have eventing contests, and still, others, have scripting contests. I have even seen project contests. But this will be more... unique.

 

Welcome to the first quarterly 'Cinematic Contest'.

The point of this contest is simple. you must make a cinematic piece of a videogame, whether it be an opening, in the middle, or at the end of a game, doesn't matter. THe rules are as follows:

• It will be judged solely on the cinematic. Anything edited to the title screen, or anything like that won't be judged.
  
• Any and all scripts, events, resources are allowed.
  
• The cinema must be made using RmXP
  
• The cinema cannot last longer than 5 minutes, but must last atleast 2 minutes.
  
• Individual projects only, no teams.
  
• No 'game playing' allowed. In other words, all of it is engine run, no fighting, no moving. At most, using the 'C' button (enter key).
  
• The project cannot be larger than 6MB
  

 

To qualify to enter:

You must be an active member of the community, and have atleast 25 non-spam posts. I will determine if they are spam or not.

 

If you have any questions, please ask. Also, The deadline for when it is due will be set when we have the minimum of 4 contenders. Judging will be based on the community. Winner recieves bragging rights for 3 months, as RMXP Unlimited's top cinematic creator, and 1 script request that I will fill to the best of my ability.

 

(Note: The script request must be within reason. No FULL CMS's, and no Battle Systems. Also, sorry, no Beastiaries.)

 

To sign up, PM Leon. This contest has not been sanctioned by RMXP Unlimited (yet), but I hope it will be, and will be a continuing thing every 3 months.

There are 9 days left in this contest. Who all is getting close, by a show of hands?

[Arkbennett 16]

As you know, my computer was reformatted and has been out of commission for the most part of the contest. But I can try to produce one.

Nice, we were talking about this sort of thing in xp discussion a while ago and weighing some size issues, so I'm really looking forward to the results.

 

This might also be a nice expiriment in creating some episodic content that doesn't annihilate bandwidth. ;)

[Wyzrd 12]

I might not get to finish it but I'll see what I can do. Me and my girlfriend have been trying to spend a little more time together and a little less time on the computer. Ok a lot less time on the computer.

Well then, why not bring this back? The reason it tanked is me (and another member) lost internet for quite some time; for varying reasons, of courrse. (NO Wyz, Ark and I are NOT related; thank goodness...)

 

But, we'll bump the deadline to May 2nd, and everyone, good luck. I will make that script, too.
