Two screens of a game DJD and I are making for the Yoyo games winter competition. http://www.yoyogames.com/gamemaker/competition01 

If anyone knows of any music and/or sound effect composers that would  be willing to do some work for a possible cash bonus (top 1,2, or 3) that would be much appreciated.  Thanks for any help in advance, we certainly need it with this harrowing deadline :3

Beautiful. Nice character design and I love the trees.

Huggkruka (Level 1 Rookie) at 12/2/2007 1:32:44 PM
Someone's been watching the trailers for the Golden Compass :P  That does look very nice, I suppose the inventory is a bit too large for my taste, but whatever.

zlajonja (Level 1 Depressed) at 12/2/2007 6:08:06 AM
Just amazing.... It's just simply beautiful... :)

Zlothien483 (Level 1 Depressed) at 12/2/2007 4:05:43 AM
beautiful!!!! the trees are exquisite

Opacus (Level 6 Yonkyu) at 12/1/2007 5:26:09 AM
I love you dude, you're the man. I'm currently also trying to enter the competition, and this is awesomly inpsiring. I guess I'll just have to aim for 2nd price if it indeed plays as awesome as it looks, haha.

YungYankee (Level 1 Gangster) at 11/30/2007 8:04:01 PM
wow very nice detailed, overall A+ lol.

Nitram (Level 5 Killer Klown) at 11/29/2007 2:45:47 PM
damn dude awesome pixels <3

Gratheo (Level 2 Kukyu) at 11/29/2007 11:50:00 AM
I like this. The bear and the main character take the cake.

buloght (Level 6 SWAT) at 11/29/2007 12:14:44 AM
This is wonderful, love your tree and the depth, as well as the slight ground perspective and characters ... I like it all!

MashPotato (Level 6 Made) at 11/28/2007 7:00:27 PM
Just great, and incredibly appealing

Scruffs (Level 6 Made) at 11/27/2007 8:29:53 PM

wow thanks for all the great comments =)

Neota + adarias - thank you for the insight, I was having trouble with the main character and how he fit into the scene.  Ill certainly take all this advice into account.

To all who pmed me regarding music: Thank you so much for all the help guys, we're a little busy here but we'll contact all of you as soon as possible. 


Shawn (Level 7 Assassin) at 11/27/2007 6:17:35 PM
Just by seeing the icon on the main page, i knew it was yours. Fucking ace work, dude. <3

Adarias (Level 7 Colonel) at 11/27/2007 2:54:29 PM
fantastic work but the purple character becomes background.  Id suggest a nice color to add to the scene, such as gold (complement) or green (keep with winter and round out secondary colors)

Also, the use of green should be made perhaps warmer and echoed somewhere.  Healthbar and wrapping paper both come across as alien in their current forms.  If you're adverse to a warm green element, i say swap current greens then for gold as well.

just a thought: http://xs121.xs.to/xs121/07483/Mheh.png

best of luck!

This is great and I love it except for the text--the red AA sticks out on my monitor and seems to make it look more jaggy than smoothed; maybe it's because the red third of the pixel is the leftmost (on my LCD at least) while you still use red pixels to aproximate a subpixel curve in the right side of the pixel?

Lawrence (Level 10 Operative) at 11/27/2007 12:55:36 PM
Not sure if you read my PM, but I can help with music too. Check the links in it for mp3 and midi samples. This looks great btw, has a very nice cozy Christmas feel to it.

MichaS (Level 8 Cannibal) at 11/27/2007 12:10:25 PM
OMG imo xD

AdamAtomic (Level 1 Rookie) at 11/27/2007 10:55:55 AM
Looking really great!

Snovind (Level 1 Rookie) at 11/27/2007 9:58:12 AM
The graphics are awsome!      I really hope you winn this competition

Morgengrauen (Level 2 Quiet One) at 11/27/2007 9:47:40 AM
the trees are awesome!!

ceddo (Level 6 Serial Killer) at 11/27/2007 8:52:28 AM
WOW! Now THAT is some amazing color choice!!

edit: i'll send you a message now :)


neota (Level 7 Ichikyu) at 11/27/2007 4:31:57 AM
except for the character, I am getting a very Ghouls'n'Ghosts vibe.. which is awesome (tree is delicious, I must eat it now. great cold solemn night atmosphere.).  The character though reminds me more of Dangerous Dave or Final Fantasy in style -- more cartoony.. The outlines look realistic on others, on him they just look black, so I suggest lightening the outlines a bit. As it is, he pops out so much that he doesn't seem to even be near the same plane as the polar bear.

Fred (Level 3 Enforcer) at 11/26/2007 5:23:49 AM
I dont have any words to describe that piece! Really awesome, faved.

Flarfy (Level 4 Deputy) at 11/26/2007 1:41:20 AM

I'm a bit busy lately, but I'm interested in writing some music for you guys. Leave me an email at kavanaughmusic@gmail.com to talk about the specifics and I'll get back to you. My site with audio samples is here. http://itohdaichi.binaryphoenix.com/

iSTVAN (Level 8 Cannibal) at 11/25/2007 4:32:26 PM
Looks absolutely awesome! It's so nice knowing it isn't just a mockup and will actually get made. Good luck!

Wolverine (Level 8 Brigadier General) at 11/25/2007 4:24:04 PM
If it plays as good as it looks am sure you'll win.   That is if it wasn't for the trend of shallow 3D games getting so highly rated on yoyo...

-ViC- (Level 4 Murderer) at 11/25/2007 4:22:32 PM
freakin' awesome, hope you guys find someone to compose music/sounds for you

DJD (Level 4 Button Man) at 11/25/2007 3:53:57 PM
A triumph I daresay. I know you've slaved over this a long time dude so congrats!
