YoSniper's Fangame Contest 2015 *RESULTS*

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, it's official! YoSniper's Fangame Contest 2015 has kicked off!

No pre-registration is required this time around; just submit an entry if you want to participate.

RULES:

OVERALL DESIGN:
1) Any engine is acceptable (even no engine at all)
2) Games must have at a minimum ONE complete area and ONE boss, although more is usually better.
3) Games must be Windows 8 friendly. Abrupt crashes are BAD!!!

RESTRICTIVE:

4) A "God mode" option must be included in the game. This ensures that all judges will be able to play through each game in its entirety.

5) A README file must be included with your game submission. This will just explain in obvious terms how all of the rules are followed, how God mode can be activated, and any other important details.

INNOVATIVE:

6) At least two distinct gimmicks must be employed, NOT including the following:
- Double-jump restores
- Switching lasers
- Gravity switching
- Invisible/fake blocks
- Increased/decreased speed
- Increased/decreased gravity

7) Include at least one collectible item that serves some purpose (not just for the sake of being collected.)

ENTERTAINMENT:

8) Include a reference to either Primal Rage, Killer Instinct, or Mortal Kombat somewhere.

9) The randomly chosen word is "misogamy." Reference this word somehow somewhere in your game.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION IS JULY 1, 2015

PRIZES THIS YEAR ARE DEPENDENT UPON THE NUMBER OF QUALIFYING ENTRIES, SO THE MORE THE MERRIER!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATE. I WILL BE LOOKING FOR JUDGES AS THE DEADLINE APPROACHES.

All submitted games are here (except for PSIFT, by Derf's and Katz's request.)

Just so everyone on this side is also aware, for one of the entertainment rules, I am going to pull a word randomly out of a hat, and that word will need to be referenced somehow in the submitted games.

I am currently looking for word suggestions. Just pick a word out of the dictionary (but please don't pitch words that only a precious few will know. I've already had one guy pitch a whole bunch of ridiculously complicated words.)

Running list is:

- vitamins
- fedora
- queen
- regicide (a fancy word for "assassin" or "assassination", specifically of a king or sovereign)
- aardvark
- alchemy

This list is great already.

"Using alchemy, the queen committed regicide by turning an aardvark into some precious vitamins in her fedora.

I'd be happy to have you.

I'm not going to go through the whole "pre-registration" stuff this time. Basically, what I'm going to do instead is have the prize vary depending on the number of qualified entries. That way, more participation is encouraged, and I don't have to pay $100 for a train wreck like last year.

Granted, the winners from last year's contest certainly deserved the prize in my mind, but the fact that I lost more than half of my participants really pissed me off.

Depending on the entertainment word, I may actually make something.

Basically I'm Fut Coins requiring participants to include certain things rather than prohibit gimmicks like double-jump restores and the like.

Pls don't post any suspicious looking links.

No idea what "fut coins" means, but yeah, that's basically how this contest is going to operate. I don't intend to really prohibit anything. There will be restrictions, but no prohibitions.
