when is 4e6 starting?
Author
Sorry if this post comes off a little strange given the fact there is a 4e6 thread already in existence. But the question was never fully answered as to when 4e6 will start. It was given that it was probably in June, and its September now. The topic then shifted to cross platform issues, so I would like to know from a member of the staff when indeed the contest is going to be announced, started, etc. Any Ideas?

superpig (admin) wrote in the big thread (page 7) that it will start this month.
The pagesize can only be a fixed number of values (25, 50 etc). Since the only pagesize for which a "page 7" exists is 25, specifying the pagesize is unnecessary [wink]

Yeah, if I kept going on about crossplatform, I was going to suggest a topic fork. :) I will admit, I'm hoping to finish CuteGod before 4E6 is announced, but it doesn't look like that will happen. Oh well, I'm also looking forward to *finishing* an entry this year.

If it's the contest I think it is, it's the prototyping a god game challenge over at the Lost Garden using the awesomely cute PlanetCute prototyping tileset.
Sorry about that, I mentioned it in the other thread and then forgot its epic length had it difficult for mere mortals to traverse it. :)
Yeah, the CuteGod is the one from Lost Garden.

Basically the guy provided the graphics and a short design essay on how the game would play out and the object is to see what you can do and what you can add to it. I'm about 50% done with mine, it's playable but not stable (and no installer).

There are others who have done a great job also:

Basically, I'm working on BooGame and trying to make it crossplatform and easier to use. It's an OpenGL 2D engine for .NET and the Tao project. CuteGod gives me an excuse to keep on programming, a neat challenge where I just have to figure out how to implement it, and not to get too anxious for 4E6. :) I'm also desperately hoping to finish it before 4E6 starts.
