[QUOTE=Levybreak;13792777]I claimed the first thread reward. Anybody else willing to share their concepts?[/QUOTE] congrats, have a free copy of audio surf
[QUOTE=JSharpe;13792862]congrats, have a free copy of audio surf[/QUOTE] I already have audiosurf, xD Anyways... people should at least start posting their concept so there's no "OMG, He stole my concept!" later on when the coding has all been done already. (And if two people DO have the same ideas, it gives them a chance to team up)

[QUOTE=JSharpe;13793031]Darwinia?[/QUOTE] No? I don't have it?
I'm good at learning from other peoples' stuff... but no base without copying? Oh no! I might not get to enter this contest; my video card is messed up and I can't even spawn a headcrab without crashing gmod.

I call hat football. Noone else do hat football! Happy hatting! I hat you all!

[QUOTE=Levybreak;13800921]mad hatter[/QUOTE] Brilliant idea! I won't be entering this contest though. I have other scripts to work on.
[QUOTE=Levybreak;13800921]What are you? A mad hatter?[/QUOTE] Map is so close to being done. It's a motherlickin' badass stadium. The camera is gonna have two 2D planes, x and y. You can switch between them but there is a limit so you can only switch once every 3 seconds. still keeping the side scroll spirit! Also, it's not a football, it's a hat. And tackling involves crowbars. And pain.
2 Questions: 1) Can "hats" be an acronym for something like Fallout 3 has VATS? 2) After the contest is done, is it possible to get a "Hat-Free" open source of the gamemode?

However, since the rules state that the gameplay has to have something to do with hats, if you removed the hat related stuff, you would only have a side scroller. If that's your goal then you are in luck. All gamemodes will need to release their code to enter, but only by the deadline.
Oh! I have an idea, since "hats" cant be an acronym, how about a sidescroller, in a giant hat!
How about you include hats in the gameplay
[QUOTE=Nerdboy;13822777]How about you include hats in the gameplay[/QUOTE] Its IN the gameplay cause your IN the hat! :P
Guys, it's really not that hard to work hats into gameplay.

There needs to be prizes for the follow ups
[QUOTE=JSharpe;13827572]There needs to be prizes for the follow ups[/QUOTE] Agreed. We need motivation! Who will donate to this cause?
[QUOTE=grea$emonkey;13827666]Who will donate to this cause?[/QUOTE] i have an extra Hl2... dont think that will help... steam owes me a portal though.
[QUOTE=Darrylop;13830055]i have an extra Hl2... dont think that will help... steam owes me a portal though.[/QUOTE] They owe me a TF2 as well but there is really nothing we can do now huh? I tried get it but you know steam, blah blah blah.

Gamemode Coding Contest shouldn't be a Gamemode's Sub-Forum, it should be a Garrysmod Sub-Forum so more people can take a look and vote/critic stuff.
[QUOTE=CrashLemon;13860068]Gamemode Coding Contest shouldn't be a Gamemode's Sub-Forum, it should be a Garrysmod Sub-Forum so more people can take a look and vote/critic stuff.[/QUOTE] Actually, I think it should be a gamemode subforum.
[QUOTE=CrashLemon;13860068]Gamemode Coding Contest shouldn't be a Gamemode's Sub-Forum, it should be a Garrysmod Sub-Forum so more people can take a look and vote/critic stuff.[/QUOTE] Unless it was a full team kind of thing for an entire team of modelers/skinner/coders/mappers all together. Then maybe. Then again that would be [i]very[/i] hard to do. Not to mention good guys will team up. It should stick in gamemodes forum.
Out of curiosity, who is the panel of judges going to be made up of? And on what scale are the gamemodes going to be scored? And what on what basis? 5 points for fun-ness, 2 for adherence to topic, 3 for coding efficiency, etc?
