![]() I started with a platformer but kind of got stuck, so I switched to this. Kind of simple, I know, but I'll be doing a ton of animating and I love the idea. |

Originally posted by HCGamer ![]() I started with a platformer but kind of got stuck, so I switched to this. Kind of simple, I know, but I'll be doing a ton of animating and I love the idea. I know you're aware that the idea is simple, but unless the animation you're planning to do is going to be outstanding (which, by the way, will probably only work if it's really smooth - a choppy animation just wouldn't work), I can't see this being a winner, unfortunately. I think you should try and think up something as little bit more complicated that you can do to show off a little. Alternatively, you could edit this by adding a background or something (however that may actually detract from the quality of the piece if it isn't done properly, in which case it'll just crowd the piece. ):). Also, I think the paddles are a bit on the small side. :| Edited by Spherical Ice - 19 July 2010 at 2:38pm |

If you think that I have any chance of winning, even with a different entry, I would like to refer you you to a little piece of crap called my gallery. ;) I'm not that great an artist yet. Anyway, I'm on frame 21 of around 200 right now, so you can bet it won't be choppy.

you know, Virtual Boy was famous for pseudo-3d games. 3d tetris, mario tennis, and stuff like that.
Maybe try making a 3d pong? That would certainly be more interesting. |

Well I'm done, though a bit disappointed at the speed. But it is 356 frames, so I can't be too sad. Here's the final. Thoughts?

Frame count doesnt mean anything: quality over quantity, after all.
![]() I suggest either doubling the frame speed, or cutting every other frame. |

Didn't think to cut half the frames but I think thats the most viable option. I'm working on a Sting Ray (vehicle) right now for a second entry but it's not going well.

W. M., your cockpit is rockin' the pixels. Great curves and shading. I want to play that game already.
Throw in some action outside the cockpit and ... wow.

b) how is it a mock-up? |

I dont like how the cursor is over some of the writing in the fight scene. Since it and the text was the same color, it confused me for a few seconds. Other than that, perfect!

Does it have to be an actual game, or can it be made up?

@SerenaOmega - You may make a fan-art mock-up like Jinn, or you can create something from your own imagination, it's up to you. The only thing is that it shouldn't contain any ripped graphics (but that should go without saying...)
@Jinn - maybe a longer black screen between the LeChuck screen and the "WAIT!" screen. |

The dear administration has written that in my work, instead of four put, eight colours. Probably so it also is (I do not wish to call in question authoritative opinion of a site), but I do not know as to define inappropriate colours and at all I do not represent as them to replace with the necessary!!! Please, advise as to be. Thanks. ![]() |

@Duchnois, use the link in my signature to verify your entry. Just enter the direct URL for it and it will show what passes and what doesn't.
This is what it shows ;) ![]() http://www.pixeljoint.com/files/icons/full/virtualboyfinalchallange_final.png The green colors are the colors that failed to match

Has caught one more superfluous colour, but last is a shade black and it already too for me!!! Eventually I do not break in this F@#$%^& pixel the competition concept!!! Whether to me it will be allowed not to search dear and severe administration for a needle in a haystack?
