"Game-Dash" and "Game-Chain" -- More competitions by Jok?
Well I had this running thought today, and was wondering whether it was plausible and wanted.
What is Game-Dash?
Well, a small amount of coders get together, and fight it off to the DEATH! Basically we get a few entrants, and we set a time to start it off. From that point, everyone has 48 hours (or maybe a week?) to code up a small game, as good a game as they can. Best game at the end wins.
Rules:
-Don't start your game before the set time.
-You may use ANY programming language you wish. Lua, GML, C++, Python, Flash, Java, etc. Anything that I/judge can run, it's fine.
-You have to be able to provide a windows executable and source code.
Games will not have to be based around a theme, however a theme WILL add to your score.
That would be it. Would anyone like to see this happen?
If this can happen, and does happen, I will probably chain it with a second idea I have, Game-Chain. (Source code from the first game is posted, everyone on the forums that knows a bit of programming can add whatever they want to the game as long as they post their version of the code. Keep on going and going until the game is unique to TB forums as everyone chipped in with something.)
So what do you think?
