Four Elements - Unofficial Contest?

Trapper Zoid · 2009-12-29T09:28:12

I know this question may seem a little premature, what with 4E6 not yet completed and the organisers currently dealing with pesky real life issues, but I was wondering when (or if) 4E7 will be held this year. If I remember correctly traditionally the Four Elements contest started in the middle of year, but it had to be delayed to the end for 4E6. I'd be interested in knowing when 4E7 is tentatively slated to be held, even if it's something as vague as the quarter of the year, so I can mentally see if it fits into my schedule for what I'll be doing in 2008/2009. Edit: Now that the discussion has turned to an unofficial Four Elements style contest, I've renamed the thread to reflect that. The original title was "4E7 - rough idea of when it will be held?" There's also now an official information thread for the unofficial contest. [Edited by - Trapper Zoid on October 18, 2009 4:46:02 PM]

Proliferation? That makes me think it is going to be the hard one of the bunch...
EDIT: Wait, evolution is in there too? Hmm, looks like this could be a bit more challenging than I first thought...

Ja, looks like I might finally have to get around to messing with flocking/swarm AI [wink]

Those of you who have some screenshots, could you please put your game on the UFEC website along with the screenshots? It could help draw in more contestants.

I'm looking for programmers and other people for a tactics game!

Would like to do so, but the image is always a gamepad. Do you have any constraints with the pictures?

No. You input a link to the image in the form and the website will resize it to display a thumbnail (width 200px, I think the height is reduced in ratio, but I'm not sure).

I hope Santa (or whoever gives out presents in your country) has given you some lines of codes and some free artwork for you game under the tree!

Oh yes, thank you Lesan. Cycle received some nice presents. Unfortunately not the complete amount of presents, which were on the wish list, but at least a hand full of art and LoC have been finished.
