Slingerland Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Yeah, I'm leaning towards that idea now...even after judging each and every one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimensionWarped Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Why the judges sheet? Can't I just say which one I like the best and leave it at that? Because I doubt its too likely that all of the judges will unanimously agree upon one favorite entry. If you want to do it this way though, here's a compromise. Each Judge can pick two favorites and eliminate the rest. If two judges have overlapping favorites, there is no need to pick another one. Once we are down to six or less, you can use the categorical scoring method. Sound agreeable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenor Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Yeah, that's a fine way for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Shadix Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 if I were judging I'd think something of the Hydrocity lamppost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Cordel Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Great, thanks. But the tension is gonna start killing me now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimensionWarped Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Believe it or not, that was originally something I wanted. I wanted every judge to submit the scores one day after the other one so that no one would know who would win until the last judge cast his decisions on the last day... so instead, we have something like that going with this.

ila Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 I haven't finished the sheet yet, but I'd like to say that all of the entries in this concept have really been quite refreshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ristar Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 oh bugger, I lost the gif. Is there a decent app out there that can grab frames from gifs easily? Not sure whether Imageready can do that, I'm far too out of practice. Congrats everyone thus far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Here you go: I used a program called GraphicsGale, it can break apart Gifs or you can view/edit the frames. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DimensionWarped Posted July 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Ila has finished judging... and for some reason sent me the sheet instead of posting it here. Zenor's Metallic Madness Good Future Concept: 7 Unique choice of level but highly limited by the Good Future only requirements. Adherence to Game art: 8 I'm not familiar with Sonic Cd's level art on a good enough level to fully judge this. But it seems Soncy enough. If anything it could be used in Chaotix... although that lacks checkpoints altogether. Animation Quality: 10 the blur in frames 2-5 was a ncie touch. Overall: 17 An excellent lampost. Total: 42 TRD's Death Egg Concept: 9 The spinning gear was a brilliant idea, along with the electricity in the globe. Adherance to Game Art: 7 Doesn't exactly seem fitting for me still. Animation Quality: 9 I think the elevating of the post could be smoother, but thats my only complaint. Overall: 17 Good concepts, and well animated. Total: 42 TRD's Casino Night Concept: 10 Slot machine in Casion Night. Doesn't get much better than that. Adherance to Game Art: 8 Looks like a power up monitor combined with a star post. Very fitting. Animation Quality: 8 Handle seems a tad lacking in frames, but the slot effects are very nice. Overall: 18 Great idea, well animated. Total: 44 Palindrome's Hydrocity Concept: 10 A star post suspended on a jet of water. Very clever. Adherance to Game Art: 9 Colors fit, and it seems to stay nicely. Animation Quality: 7 Water looks like a solid line shifting up an down rather than an actual spray of water. Overall: 17 A good concept, just needs touching up. Total: 43 Ryan Cordel's Lava Reef Act 2 Concept: 9 A soft glowing lamp on top of some rocks. Good choice given the stage, although the one act use is a tad limiting, but not so much as Zenor's. Adherance to Game Art: 10 This almost looks like an official part of the scenery. Animation quality: 8 There isn't alot there, but its enough for it to look good. Overall: 18 There is just something about this that is almost soothing, like a candle. Total: 45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
