2015 Halloween contest

Cool! Until what day do we now have time to play the entries and vote?

Two weeks, meaning November 14. Two weeks building time, two weeks judging time... and after that, people will be preoccupied with Beyond Closed Doors anyway.

It's an unfortunate accident Grayman. I think that shouldn't stop your mission from being in the contest as you're clearly at the brink of release.

 

So, that leaves me as the one person to genuinely go over the deadline with a very advanced mission. There are still a few big points on my todo list, like setting up AI paths, balancing the lighting and technically implementing the storyline. I knew the mission would become too much for a 2 week contest, so I'd prefer to drop the shackles of the speedbuild, give it my best possible finish and let it stand on its own as my second release and as part of my Newfoundland campaign. It will be an afterburner for the Halloween contest.

By my count (based on this list), there are now 97 separate missions for TDM! This number includes small entries like The Builder's Blocks, but not the blackjack trainer and missions packaged as campaigns. However, if we count +2 missions for No Honour Among Thieves, and +1 for Quinn Co, that makes for 100! Unless I am making some kind of mistake, which is possible.

*Reels thinking about the man hours required to build 100 missions.*

*Faints thinking about the man hours to make the framework required for all those missions possible*

 

We are an unstoppable workforce of epic proportions!

As a small gift, the winner of our newest contest will receive a digital copy of System Shock 2 from me, which he or she is free to use or give to a friend. I think it is a must as Thief / TDM player to play this game once in a lifetime, so good luck to all entrants

Two days left to vote on the contest entries!
