THEORETICAL "CONTEST"

Posts

Pages: 1
On another topic, a certain video game name generator was mentioned and it game me an idea for a "contest" of sorts. Nothing serious, just some fun.

I've randomized 40 names for a game. What I'm thinking is that you'll give me a number between 1 and 40, and I'll give you the corresponding name, and from that, you have to make a game (whatever maker you want to use, I don't really give a rat's ass). The games don't have to be long, and if you don't like your name, you can draw again (within reason, two or three redo's tops)

Before I think about deadlines and judges or anything, I just want to know if anyone would be interested in this sort of thing.
Or perhaps rather than a contest, an "Action 52"-esque hodgepodge of short games? I dunno, just shooting out ideas.
I'm getting tired of hearing about Action 52. We have Pat the NES Punk to thank for getting people curious enough about it.
I would do this since I first demanded a contest based on it! My participation would depend on the time frame though, since I'm quite busy this week.

Edit:
Also, you might assign two names to each person to give them a limited choice.
I actually don't mind the sound of the contest...
If you're gonna do it then I'll join.

Alright, fair enough.

Never heard of said Punk. Fine then, this'll be the Wii Play of RMN.

So if I were to have a time-frame of, say, a few weeks or a month? Maybe have it be a contest like Befuddle Quest (best entry, funniest entry, etc.), and then compile all the games for a later release?

If you want to sign up, PM me with a number between 1 and 40 and I'll give you two names to choose from so you can start brainstorming or working or whatever. If the number's been picked, I'll skip to the next available number.

Also, anyone who wants to help judge, also send me a PM.

EDIT: Just realized that since I'm not mandating one type of maker over another, the best I'd be able to do would be to put it all in a .zip or .rar file for download. Worth it?
