plot twist: July 7th is my birthday


All games this year must be about kentona confirmed.

So... IGMC 2015

Looks like the contest is going to be from July 7th to August 7th this year.



Official stuff all at this link.

The game twist itself won't be revealed until July 7th.

Some interesting rules this time around.

RMN Birthday 2015

I have a new version of "Let RMN Eat Cake" to upload that fixes the infinite match glitch (at least it should) and removes a couple exploits (mash A and Z and some weird one). Is it too late to upload this version? It's just bug fixes after all.

I got to see LockeZ and Libby fight a cake eating battle. 10/10

Heh. Glad you enjoyed it!

I highly appreciate the Street Fighter aesthetics. Surprisingly, the simple gameplay mechanics worked really well! Overall a lot of fun for a good couple of minutes.

Thanks man. It's not bad for just eight hours right? Glad people enjoyed it.

- Street Fighter 2? Cool!
- Nice letter sounds during tutorial.
- Tutorial music doesn't loop, instead it fades out.
- The character banter was funny.
- A trick to break the game: press both "A" and "Z" fast.
- I had a match using "Liberty vs. Red_Nova" and it didn't end after the timer, I had to reset.
- Some more battle backgrounds would be nice.
- Would love to see more characters (me included :P ) and different specials (like stealing cake from opponents or slowing down time, or something like that) and a 2 player mode!
- Great concept! :D
Fun!

Yeah, I need to fix the music when I get the chance. And I'm right there with you on the battle backgrounds. 2 player mode might be an option in the future. We'll see.

I'll post more feedback on some of the games I've played when I get home too.

Button-mashing go. It's easiest to just mash a throughout the whole thing.

The fighting lines are hilarious, I only wish I could change the control layout. I am much better at hitting enter with my left hand, and using my right gets annoying.
+ a shorter timer would make it go easier on your hands.
Too bad there is no multiplayer!


Thanks for the feedback Kylalia! I did include a timer in the options menu to reduce muscle cramp. Control layout was something I was looking into but unable to include in time. If I revisit the game later multiplayer, custom controls, unique specials and/or more characters are possible additions.

I tried going into the game right off the bat, but, yeah, that didn't work too well.

So, after the tutorial, I did LockeZ vs Craze because why not. Craze won, though.

Second match, I did Housekeeping vs Snow Owl. Housekeeping won by a bit.

Third match was Red_Nova vs Ratty524. Red_Nova won.

Final match, I set Liberty vs kentona. I don't think I improved that much over my Red_Nova play.

Okay, one more match. kentona vs Craze. Wow, kentona was 20 points over! Oookaaaay, then!

Also, Let RMN Eat Cake was awesome!

At DinkleBerry, it's fun while it runs. It's funny and awesome in one, big, cake gorged package.


Thanks for the input guys and gals! Glad people are having fun.

Some of the other games are pretty fun too. Rhyme and Nessiah's entry had a silly, entertaining battle system. I somehow managed a 18/40 on the RMN quiz despite not coming here too often. Staying awake at work in Oceans Dream was cool. Um...there were a few others that I liked but can't remember off the top of my head... But yeah. Good games. Good times.

This was the first google search result for the Runtime Error 103. Not sure if that's what you're experiencing though.

"0x04fa1bfa" & "0x06a01000" though...that kind of stuff is a little beyond my scope of understanding I'm afraid. Not the bugs I'm used to. I don't suppose there's anyone out there that knows a thing or two about it?
I have VX Ace, and I've played lots of VX Ace games and while I've had crashes like this, I've never had it on VX Ace. I think it's a compatibility error between XP and a script you're running.

Yeah I wouldn't doubt it. Hopefully it's one of the scripts I can easily lose. Sorry it's giving you issues.

No, it wasn't there to begin with, so I thought it was somewhere else and I just didn't notice. Only happened that one time though.

Crap. Well, I'll add it to the bug list. Thanks for letting me know. :)

Back to Let RMN Eat Cake, there's:
Protection Error: 103

Let me see what the first popup was.

Okay, not a script error.

Let RMN Eat Cake: Game.exe - Application Error
The instruction at "0x04fa1bfa" referenced memory at "0x06a01000". The memory could not be "read".
Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program

(The debug won't help. It's a several hundred page line of script calls in C++.)

That's followed by the Protection Error: 103

call me a bit biased, but I love this one! Everyone's lines have clever plays off their games or personalities that I couldn't help but smile at the whole time. Well done, dinkle!


Thanks Red! The match quotes were probably the funnest thing to put into the game.

Let RMN Eat Cake:
This was a BALLER idea. You should put some more work into this and expand it to have more people.


I was originally going to MUGEN it up and throw in everybody I could, but then I cut the roster because I thought it might be cool to have character-specific specials. Yeah...that ended up being more work than I could handle. I might revisit the game later when I'm less busy with schoolwork and the IGMC coming up though.

author=TungerManU
Cake game worked fine for me, too. There was one bug though, when I first tried the VS mode there was no timer so the match kept going forever. I only noticed when my arm was really sore XD But otherwise I agree it's a very solid entry. I especially loved the pre-fight VS screens with personal character quotes. Let's just say this game takes the

cake.

Glad you liked it! For that bug, was there a timer at the beginning of the round that just disappeared at the end without actually ending the match? I've had that happen a couple times during playtesting and just wanted to make sure if it was the same issue or a different one I need to look into.

Let RMN Eat Cake keeps crashing. It happens so fast, I can't tell you what's wrong, but I think it keeps happening whenever someone gets a combo.


Weird. I wonder if I missed anything RTP related? It could be related to the scripts but I never had the game crash on me while testing so that's new. Did it have a pop-up come up when it crashed or did the whole thing just shut down? Was it early in the match? Do you think it was from the player side or computer side? Sorry for all the questions I just want to nip this in the bud.

RMN Birthday 2015

It is done. My life's work.

Well, not actually done. There was an arcade mode and unique specials I wanted to add as well as different AI patterns for different fighters bbuuuuutttt I can only do so much in so little. Oh and there's some weird glitch that keeps happening with the timer.

But yeah! Done-ish! I made a Streetfighter-themed cake-eating game starring a few people I see on the forums but don't really know yet. I might come back to it later if I get free time. Hope people have fun with it!

Download here. Also up above.

This is a pretty cool idea.
I have some school work this weekend (summer course) but I might just be able to squeeze 8 hours out for this contest. Not sure though, it would be cutting it close. I had a couple questions before I'd know for sure:

1. Is there a place we could get community member "charsets" to represent themselves for use in the game we make? Like...is that a thing?

2. How do people feel about the consumption of alcohol?
