    @FryingBaconStudio .. I would take you up on the private viewing but i don't think thats fair to the rest. Lets just say i do win, how would everyone else feel about a winner being something they haven't seen?

    @FryingBaconStudios
    I apologize for the mix up. This is what happens when you only get an hour sleep. Clock numbers start looking like different numbers. LOL Again I am sorry.

    @FryingBaconStudios - @ozboybrian - @LeonardDeveloper
    Are you extending it until 9:00am EST time? If so, I'm going to make a better video.

    Thanks,

    Yes I am and I'm the Judge! So you all have one hour to post a video time stamped by the forum one hour from the time stamp on this post. Go...! @beefy just wanted to make sure you had a chance. You could always post some images. I think the people here know I'm honest and truthful to a fault...lol That is no contest..LMAO
  • beefy_clyrobeefy_clyro Member Posts: 5,394
    @FBS ... Yes honesty has certainly came out as a trait of yours. haha. I wouldn't want to show images either, its the whole style of the game i wouldn't feel comfortable with sharing, i haven't got enough completed to show it publicly!

    I concur about FBS. He's honesty might be stern at times. But its worthy of respect.

    haha either way beefy you can at least be in the next one if it doesn't get spammed to death :D
  • The_Gamesalad_GuruThe_Gamesalad_Guru Member Posts: 9,922

  • beefy_clyrobeefy_clyro Member Posts: 5,394

    OKay so I just would like everyone to know that I was asked to judge this and provide a prize. I am not part of the planing or lack of execution that Circus belongs to others. I do promise to review each submission and judge them honestly and without bias and to provide a transparent review for my choices. I have a point sheet given to me and am using that to tally up things and am not in charge of how the prizes are given out, only to judge by the sheet and rank by points in each section.

    @LeonardDeveloper

    @Motherhoose
    :( lol

    I would also like to point out that the scoring system and prize distribution was all set up by, @LeonardDeveloper.
    I didn't really agree or not agree to either. But he seems keen to help...
    However I would rather control any future 24 hr comps on my own or not be in charge at all :D lol.
    Things where simple then got complicated and .. yeah.
    Thanks to EVERYONE who took part. LOVE ALL THE ENTIRES! Great support.

    OKay so the results are in and sent to Oz and Thermo. I'll let them do the other stuff best art et...

    Let me explain how I judged each of the games and what I liked.

    EatMyHat, This was my favorite of them all. I am a fan of the use of domestic items and such as art. This technique was made famous by Original Monty Python and film director Terry Gilliam. Anyone who has seen the shows knows what I'm talking about. I think this work shows glimpses of that and does it the right ways. Stuff like that can't be taught. This game would have won but sound was one of the categories and there was no sound at all so I was forced to put a zero in that column :( .


    TshirtBooth, Once again he demonstrates he is a master at game play. He disguises complexity in a simple format and framework. I like the detail in the background of the soap drips and the natural physics of the game was stellar. The only thing that held this game back was the lack of a menu system with brief explanation of gameplay as that was a category I had to judge. But overall this game is something that looks addictive and fun!

    Leonard Developer: This game has a nice relaxing vibe to it. It was executed technically perfect with a balanced approach in all areas, music, art, menu but I do think the gameplay could have been better, it was right there in the mix in all categories but the limited gameplay left it just short of wining.

    Unicorninvasion: For a young chap this was an excellent job. I like that he used his own art and so I scored this high on originality! I enjoyed the fact that the birds started to pile up on you and make it difficult as this the secret to great addictive game play. But I thought the game play when hitting the fish could have been a bit better. This young man has a great beginning on making games.

    OzboyBrian: I really appreciated the gameplay, adding the bugs to make you dive down adds a lot to the challenge of the game and is very well thought out. I also like the parallax work in this game and it added to it's art score. But where it fell behind is just on originality, as the art was great and music and gameplay but it looked like the usual suspects in these areas, so it missed a few points in that area. This though, is a game I would play too.

    Killerpenguins: This is the overall WINNER. He squeaked out a win by having great scores in all areas. A good detailed menu system, good sound and music, good gameplay as I noticed the rings you have to grab et… and the art was detailed and used good parallax effect. This Game squeaked out a win, only by a few points, by meeting all the challenges well.

    All the games came down to between a few points. This was very hard and I gave each category lots of thought and studied each game carefully. I hope my descriptions of each game helps you to see how I scored this contest. I know I am not perfect as I am human but I can tell you I did my best to be fair and honest in each category and that's how I took each game by the category sheet I was given.

    You can see I was fair as my personal favorite was Eat My Hat but I judged by the sheet and not my personal wishes.

    Great Job all!
