YoSniper's Fangame Contest 2015 *RESULTS*

[YoSniper]

I am currently developing a game that might get pushed into this contest, as it follows almost all of the rules and then some such as having extra different gimmicks, god mode option, free-fly, no-clip and a metric shitload of other debugging tools to be used at the end-user's will. (All of these will be activated by a code at the title screen. Crashing is a concern because I have no clue what causes it, it rarely happens upon death with certain circumstances.

If it's Windows 8 related, a fix has been found for such circumstances. I can usually only recommend not playing too many sounds at the same time (which this fix... well, fixes.) I also recommend not using too many object instances at one time.

If the game crashes suddenly, it's likely a hardware problem (like Windows 8.) If it crashes because it stalls out, I've often found that it's an infinite loop issue in the code (such as a while loop.)

In any event, I'd be happy to have you in the contest. Shall I add you to the list?

I'll participate again this year. I promise not to make it needle this time.

Quoted so this post stays for all eternity. Mrwonderfulman non-needle game hype! NO PRESSURE!

Yeah I'll participate why not
The death crash is very rare, but it might happen once or twice in a normal playthrough maybe because I'm on a mac using wineskin to use windows gamemaker, something will go wrong there.
Nonetheless I'll be happy to join this contest to see what happens
Also the death crash doesn't seem to be related to the windows version used. It even happened once on an XP <.<
I haven't messed with the death objects or execution of its code, it's still completely engine-defaulted.

I'm interested in judging this year.

[YoSniper]

Quick update! I am capping the number of judges for now, but if you want to judge and your name is not on the list, I will add you to a wait list.

[Fireball7d7]

I'm interested in judging and am fine with being placed on the wait list.

Good luck to all the participants this year

You listed Raganoxer twice, just as heads-up.

Thank you for catching that. I looked through both threads to see if I had mistakenly glazed over someone else, but could find none. As a result, Fireball7d7 is now among the judges.

I am interested in judging if there are any spots left

Hey Snipes, I have some bad news... 
I recently dropped my laptop when the table it was placed on fell. It doesn't work anymore...
I'm typing this from my old laptop which is not fit for fangaming, it's so slow...
Am I giving up on my fangame? Hell no!
I don't care if I have to restart the damned thing, I'm finishing it!
I'm having to use a computer which is much better than my laptops, but it can't connect to the internet. So I'm having to use a flash drive to download certain sprites, music, etc. It's a very difficult process, but I'm not giving up, I will finish my fangame!
...This was just a heads-up to let you know of my current state.

Well, the good news is that you still have 2.5 months to submit your entry. Sorry to hear about this setback, but I'm glad you're not letting that stop you!

I have to restart the game again. NOT LETTING THAT GET IN MY WAY!!! Ah ha ha- I'll never finish this damned game 
I'm still in, though.

Remember that I only require an alpha. I also think that given this pattern, you should save your progress versions on mediafire or something. That way you don't have to start all over.

Also, does anyone else have any progress that they would like to announce? The thread overall has been very quiet.
