[Ben]

First contest prompt:

Retro Reimagined - A new vision for classic video games.

Submissions can be sent to me via DM until Friday 2024-07-12 5:00PM EST.

Submissions have been posted. Please use the up/down rating to pick which you like. The one with most votes will be marked on Sunday at 7 EST (or around then.)

EDIT: You can upvote using the feature attached to each postbit. It's underneath on mobile, and to the right on landscape/desktop.

You are allowed to upvote multiple entries if you like more than 1.

Looks like I'm going to on the road at 7pm, so I'm just closing it 2 hours early as I doubt I'll get anything else in that timeframe.

Submissions have been posted. Please do let me know if you cannot vote on them for some reason, as it won't let me just 'cause they're my posts.

This thread is for you to talk about the submissions, since I don't want extraneous posts getting votes in that thread.

 

[Ben]

Just cause it might not be obvious to some... There is no poll attached to the contest. It uses the question system rating system on each individual post.

If you're using the compact mobile layout, it'll be on the bottom of it postbit.



If desktop/landscape, it's on the right side.



You will likely only see the up arrow, but you can vote for all the ones you like.

 

[shortkut]

Also if it isn’t obvious, vote for mine

Honestly, people can vote for every single one if they like them all. I'm pretty sure the upvotes aren't one and done.

Also way to semi-fuck-up the anonymity, you rube.

Edit: I guess I don't really care if anyone says that they entered. Just don't claim which is yours until it's closed.

Allow me to also fuck it up by pointing out that one of them has an interesting file name

Congratulations! You found an Easter egg in our very first competition. It was absolutely, in no way, a possibility that it was an oversight.

[Nae'blis]

Huzzah!

Contest was rigged. Not that I'd know, since everything was anonymous.

Kidding, 'grats to our resident kutter!

 

[Rachel]

also can we do this same thing but for the music generators, I feel like that would be also entertaining

Oh yes!! The music generators are fun, we could make some hilarious songs with those

I voted for you!

 

[Ben]

In retrospect, I regret going for my stylized "Castlevania of Duty" and not my alternate thought of "DABcula".



Next time.

Sure! I'm definitely open to suggestions for other such contests. The only main other one I'd planned was an actual art contest, but music sounds good too (hurr).

A bit late, but I decided to give it a go. I'm still playing around with this stuff.

Why the dinosaurs? Who knows.

Trying to appeal to Ben will only get you his vote.

 

[Ben]

Why the dinosaurs? Who knows.

A) That's pretty great. Especially the kid loading the 2x4 cartridge having a full beard.
B) There's never a reason NOT to include dinosaurs.
C) This is accurate to how I feel, having to go to court at 5pm today.

 

[Ben]

Might as well share the other ones I made trying to decide on something.

Yeah, that's why I didn't remove them!

I didn't even mention dinosaurs, and yet out they all came. They must know Ben loves AI. The entire prompt was "caveman playing Super Nintendo".

 

[dimmerwit]

Well, that took a turn. I'm getting to grips with this stuff and it's pretty neat.

 

[Ben]

it's pretty neat.

You know, I have a whole ass association () for this stuff that you're welcome to join. https://gwforums.com/forums/airt.68/
