Weekend of ZZT 2007

I second what MadTom said in his comments - it would be really nice to see Jenny, Sands of Time, and Secret Raid at BB's released as regular games, perhaps with a bit of polish (not like they really need that much).

This was an amazing WoZ. Nice work, guys.

My entry deserved better than third to last. Oh well, at least I've had one high-ranking entry in a contest.

As Madtom had said in the results, yeah, mine is clearly unfinished. I really should've done some more testing, though I can fix/upgrade the game and submit it to the archive later. But I enjoyed participating in the WoZ, and will surely do it next time as well. As for the other entries, I thought that it was a good turnout. I had good fun playing other's entries, and that's the most important part of the contest, right?

Edit: a few of the entries made me laugh, such as Ando's and Bustaball's.

WAW WAW WEE WAH.

Didn't expect third place, I'm well chuffed. Nice to see my name in bold.

TWO THINGS

1) Uploaded my game with a couple extras.

fixed aforementioned bugs, added some notes, and inserted a 1hour game I had made prior that I lifted some ideas from, called "The Job Interview".

May I never look at it again.

2) I hereby relinquish hosting rights to the next woz, because I probably won't stick around long enough for the next one and I don't really enjoy hosting things. This was fun, though.

I can't tell if you're serious or not :(

I don't think it's any more significant than Raze using his thug life concepts to make another game, or surlent copying burglar for his submission, but if you really think I cheated, then I suppose it should be disqualified. I did put a lot of work into it, though, and it's not like I copied any object data or graphics. Golden Toilet is a running in-joke making fun of all the goal treasures in videogames, and the one-board idea has been done before too. I backed up every save file I made if you want to check the date stamps.

:(

You're probably right

Last night I dreamt that I returned to my hometown after years of wandering, and ran into a lanky friend I knew from elementary school who was set upon becaming a transvestite. He clobbered me outside of his house when I made a jab at the competence of his doctor.

I'd like to see your comments.

Ando · Post by **Ando** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 5:51 pm

Yeah me too, Oof. Especially about what you thought about my game.

gingermuffins · Post by **gingermuffins** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 5:57 pm

I learned something new about christianity from ando's game!

I like the idea of god employing an angel who just antagonizes wounded and weak people all day.

What happened that you took so long?

I would like to see your results, but what happened?
