So, I made this game called "Clean Asia!" for the SHMUP-DEV AUTOFIRE 2K7 Competition, and won!
The fight between the top seven entries was quite fierce, and I had no idea what to expect. But happily enough, I'm now $250 richer, and I'll be getting a big assortment of cool games to play. You should really check out the other entries as well, though. Really excellent games!The game was featured in several gaming magazines around the world. At least one german (Game Star) and one Czech (Level). Another one of my games, The Design, was also featured in another magazine, but one from my own country. I'm quite proud of the little article I got, and they were really positive about it.Clean Asia! was also in the cage match, and even beat the excellent The Wasteland, but lost against The Jeluvian Project (another fine game). However, I was pleasantly surprised to see it being entered into the Staff's Choice section on the GMC.I also appeared on a cool website called Game Trailers, that mainly deals with commercial titles. They even cut a little video piece together for it.Finally, I was featured on the prominent EO Community's hot little site, under their Game Maker Radar.I haven't submitted the game to 64digits, yet, buy I will do so ASAP. I might do an update soon, so I'm waiting a bit.So, this is my biggest success so far. I hope to follow it up with even greater achievements!Oh, and the game is available for download on my site:http://www.cactus-soft.co.nr/
Ooo congrats!
250$ is good for a GM game ;)I really should finish some of my games so that I can enter them into competitions =p
Wow, very nice! This game looks fantastic! I am glad that you are acheiving sucess and recognition. (You are on GT!) Nice work again. Now if only Valve would EVER reply to my emails about putting peoples games on Steam as free downloads. Win-win situation Valve!!!!!!!
can i ahve half? plz
congratz…PolyMan - Eh… CA! was really great, but I thought the second place game was pretty darn good too. I think Clean Asia is only barely better, as the ratings reflect. You should give it a try.
Great job cactus! Keep it up :)
No fuxin way! On Game Trailers?! Badass!
HOLY SHIT
Congratulations man!! Awesome!Well, congratulations.
