Stormy Studios 1 hour game contest
• I need a break from the day job,
• I'm going to have a cuppa-soup for lunch...(that's 1 minute wasted)
• The rest of the hour is going on a self imposed 1 hour game contest.
Rules:
All made from scratch...using GS Creator.
Theme of the contest
1 bullet.
Video of gameplay to be made and put up on Youtube.
(to be done quickly after the hour is up).
Contest starts a 1pm GMT. (Edit turns out I meant 1pm BST... damn tricky clocks always one step ahead of me)
Prizes!
The satisfaction of game design..
Plus I'll like your facebook page and follow your twitter account.

Have'nt fired up GS Creator yet.. but got my idea sorted..
Local multiplayer game.
bit like Pong... one player either side of screen. wall in middle of screen stopping direct line of sight.
Take it in turns to fire one bullet at an angle off so it bounces off the side of the screen toward the other player..
You can move your players position vertically before you fire...
Can it be done in an hour.. maybe not.. I'll give a go though...
cuppa soup has already been drunk...
Pah I'd have loved to have taken part in this but I'm seeing it as I grab lunch in a busy day Will definitely join in on the next one!

Cool idea! Unfortunately I can't participate
Omg, only now seen it!!! @StormySudio, is your second post the spec or can anything be done around the "1bullet" theme?

And why did your original post say "in 30 minutes", it's only 12:36 GMT now

Sorry ignorant of BST being a thing is my defence...
Uploading my preview now..
Oh and @Hopscotch the only brief was 'one bullet' ,everything else was free reign.
I recorded the full hour of my game creation with me muttering through it.. but probably quite boring and I went down a few wrong alleys in making it... maybe I'll speed it up so it can be watched in 30 seconds instead.
I'm in. A bit late but I build something and recorded it all. I have to upload an hour of video now, that will take a while. It's called 1 bullit, many guns...

ta da!!
Hi Jon, I was in, started at 18mins in (only saw your thread a few mins before then)... worked for 20 mins then a phone call interrupted me... never mind, I'll finish it in my own time now... (I'll still show it later if you or anyone else wants to see it!)
So nice idea, but not enough time personally....

@LumpApps and @gyroscope definately share it when it's done.
It's all for fun anyway...
I'm just exporting the little sped up video of the making of.
then better get back to the day job... after a cuppa tea.
I needed the break too!

Sped up making of...
Great idea for a challange @StormyStudio! Keep them coming. I have a similar situation as @gyroscope, but the formed idea now needs to get made as soon as I have a stretch.

awesome idea. it would be awesome to hold a contest where everyone live streamed their desktop for the hour it took to build the game. it would be great to watch everyone work, then at the end everyone uploads their game to the arcade and youtube.

Will definitely try and run one again in the future...
Project attached in case anyone wants to look through it...
Also play it on the Arcade here... ( Click start then use 'Up, down' to move and spacebar to fire. Basic tank battles have never been so incredibly exciting! ? )

I'm having trouble uploading. Never had that before.

I am in school
It's a shame as I would have had a lot of fun with this one. I'd have made a game where you are given a gun loaded with a single bullet and in front of you on the left is one person - Justin Beiber or the bird from Flappy Bird or David Cameron or someone, and on the other side is another person - one of the Koch brothers or Kim Kardashian or Chris Brown etc.
Each time you make a choice the bodies are cleared away and you are furnished with another bullet and two more people.
Given more than an hour I'd have added the uploading of each decision to a server and the displaying of how many times each person had won the bullet.

@Armelline that sounds like a sure fire hit.
Well, first I precoded the video and I got half gibberish, now it takes ages for the last 5 percent. Here is my project.
And there it is. Mind you I'm on CET so -1 for Stormies time (really!)
This is the full version. That's why it took so long. Duh!
Lump Apps and My Assets
that's very cool and unique… looks strangely satisfying to play.
Hope it doesn't get cloned

I'm cloning it now. Luckily since you recorded the whole thing I will be done in under an hour.
It would have been 10 minutes if I would have managed to upload the time lapped version. Haha!
