F4D - The Final Stretch

Posted by Castypher on Dec. 31, 2011, 2:51 p.m.

You guys have all been hard at work and it's almost time to present. But first, there are a few things I'd like to go over. First of all, due to some billing issues, my internet access is limited, so I couldn't take care of this as soon as I'd have liked.

DONATORS

If you're donating money, please use the link below. I will compensate for fees out of my own pocket, so the winners will get as much of the donation as possible.

If you're donating Steam games, stay on call.

And if you're donating eBooks, I'll have you do that yourself.

DONATE

JUDGING

Let's take a minute to go over some technical aspects here. I wasn't able to think of a new judging mechanic, so I'll be using something similar to S4D. Everyone, participant or not, will be allowed three votes, one for each of their favorites. I will take the top five for another round of voting. Each of those are winners, but the prizes must be decided somehow, and I don't think a single round would do enough justice.

NEXT COMPO

I'm exhausted from S4D and F4D, so I'm not going to be holding or participating in another compo for a while. But the next one I'll probably be hosting will be in the summer, around the time the spring semester ends.

You have a little longer to finish and there won't be any more extensions because I promised (as much as I want to extend), and some people are just burned out right now. Please submit by midnight GMT, January 3rd, give or take a few hours. I'll be compiling the blog by about then and if midnight GMT-7 elapses before then, you're out of luck, sorry to say.

So try to submit on time. And for those of you who submitted a bugged game to me, I'll do what I can. You put in the work so you should have a chance as well.

It involves a lost piece of snow, unable to cope with his Impending doom.

My submission will be present, but considerably less featured than hoped. I'll probably release an improved version later.

I've received donations from Cesque/Toast and Acid, bringing the total to $50.

I gave up on submitting my own on time, due to some recent stresses.

Also due to these stresses, and a few people submitting bugged games that they don't have time to fix, I will most likely be extending the date one more time. I know I'm a filthy liar. But hopefully you can make some use of this, and if you're just sick of it or even done, then don't even worry. I'll keep you updated, so don't submit yet.
