Our way to become a Game Developer
This time its not a Devlog but another topic I want to talk about. Many Game developer dont play games anymore because they are focusing on their project all day or in their free time. I think playing games is important for a developer. Here are the reason and some tips how you can play games in your free time as a developer!

Our way to become a Game Developer
This is a video series of our upcoming journey. Me and my girlfriend started to make a game and becoming game developer.
We want to make a little documentary about the whole journey. And here is where everything starts. (Be aware I am from austria, so my english is really simple and sometimes completely wrong, sorry in advance)
If you enjoyed it, stay tuned for future videos and more Informations about the Game we are working on.

[Rev Share] Looking for a Programmer
Hello,
first i need to say, I am from germany, so it can be, that my english is not so good (still trying my best :D ).
I am a pixel Artist from Germany, actually im really interested to make a game. I tried it many times to build something or to work in a team and always ppl dont have endurance.
But I am still naive and wanna try it again. This time it is a little bit different.
In my last project we never talked about money and just worked, this time i have a clear goal and a clear plan.
The Programmer an me we are working on the Project mainly and we both get equally money after we start selling it. Everything beside that, like complex animations if i cant do my self or music, i will pay for everything. So i will get everything done besides the programming part. The Game will be done to 100%, so dont be afraid, i have the endurance and a clear goal.
I cant provide to pay a programmer aswell thats why I decided to rev share.
Well now about the project.
I actually started to make the graphics and the story is done. It will be a rpg, but honstly not a big epic never ending rpg. The story is still very very long, but its divided into episodes. So we just working on episode 1 and release it. Dont think it will be just a demo or something, each episode will be a whole game. Approximately each episode should be more than 15hrs gameplay. I have already an idea to convert each character into the next episode, because of course each rpg have a character progress and you dont wanna lose it.
Why we dont make the whole game as one? We wont get it finished in the next 6 years im sure of it. And if you have someone for 6 years working for nothing, thats not possible. But like I said the episodes are like a whole game and filled with much content and many possibilities.
Everything is actually on german, i will translate it soon enough roughly to english and then pay someone that he can translate my bad english into native speaking english.
I dont care about the engine. I just want this game done, so I want all my game design done by the engine, if the rpg maker can do this, i have no problem with it.

2D Olympic Games
You have to wait until the contest starts but I can give you some hints with my example.
You know if you start to make a game you have many small steps to do. Character creation, mapping, make graphics , scripting and more things. After that you put all those steps together to a game. And the competition is like this. ( It is just an example) Phase 1 you have to make a screenshot about the slogan and then phase 2 you have to make a story with this screenshot and phase 3 you make a feature for the screenshot and story.
The contest is for everyone possible.
If you have more question or something is unclear feel free to ask.
I added one more prize: I work as a Pixelartist for the 1. and 2. winner for free. ( My Art http://circledrain.deviantart.com/ )

2D Olympic Games
Welcome to the concept of the Olympics Games
Let me introduce myself , My name is Rafael and in this Forum I am known as Dyprax. I Am 21 years old.At the moment I'm doing small jobs until I start my studies. I used to organize some tournaments in online games.
A few weeks ago I had the idea that I have to make a great Olympics for 2D game developers.
What are you Imagine?
Normal Contest, there are some, but what about when you combine them into an Olympics with many "small" contests? To create a Game you have to make one small step after another. Each of those small steps can be made into one big competetion. Each of the small steps will be individually assessed and finally you count all phase together and you have the total score.
What about a theme ?
Yes, the Olympics have a big issue: Crime. All phases have to revolve around the issue of crime.
How many phases and for what is a phase?
There are 6 phases to get points . Now I will explain the 6 phases (all informations about time and points you will get in the forum):
1st Phase
Protagonist
Task: Your task is to create a Main Char for a crime themed Game. You have to create him in written form and graphically. For the Graphic form I just want a Face. Well draw it by yourself or use graphics that already exist ( Please credit them). For drawing a Face you can get extra points if it is good
2nd Phase
Screenshot
Task: In the second phase, you have to make a screenshot, which deals with the subject of crime and the protagonist from the first phase.
3rd Phase
Feature
Task: The third phase will be a little more difficult, you have to create a feature for a murder mystery game. As example a notebook, an opinion meter for every NPC or just other features.
4th Phase
Story
Task: The fourth task is writing a story that involves the protagonist. And the scene of the screen should be recognizable. The difficulty is to write the story interesting for the reader and not to reveal too much so that he would play this story as a game.
5th Phase
Minigame
Task: Your task is to create a minigame that matchs your Story.As example to get something out of the fire and watch out that you will not hurt by the flames.
6.Phase
Game
Task: Your final task. All previous phases are combined into a game that is supposed to have at least 15 minutes playing time.

The intent
Why I want to make such an effort to do something crazy? It is relatively easy. I love it. I want to see how big communities are willing to participate in something. Above all, some "game producer" get known and the communities are not only for themselves and you can see that the world is much larger.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.
