Week Of Awesome III - The Afterparty/judging thread!

Tim · 2017-07-05T14:45:25

Well another year, another week is done! Congratulations to everyone whom competed! Creating a game in a week is no small task, and I am quite proud of what you guys accomplished! Once again I've compiled everyone's journals together and took notes of how many posts you did in the competition thread. I also made note of cross posting(responding to others, commenting on others journals). I compile this not just for us judges to use, but also for anyone who wants to go through each team's works, and see how they did things! Once again congrats to everyone whom competed, I think it's been another great year, and I've also taken plenty of notes on how to hopefully improve things for next year. With that said i'd like to also take this thread as a place to be used to talk to fellow contestants, and enjoy the games folks made.Admin Thread: http://www.gamedev.net/topic/668847-the-week-of-awesome-iii-the-third-annual-unofficial-gamedevnet-competition-administration-thread/Competition Thread: http://www.gamedev.net/topic/670757-week-of-awesome-iii-the-competition-thread/Results Post: http://www.gamedev.net/topic/670965-week-of-awesome-iii-the-afterpartyjudging-thread/?view=findpost&p=5249412Results will also be posted in this thread when we are finished. Remember that many of us judges have day jobs, so please allow us to the end of august at the latest to finish judging. I'd also like to add that with the help of Eck whom created a great judging scale: http://www.gamedev.net/blog/2108/entry-2261430-ecks-unofficial-judging-officially-explained/ which i'd like to refer to here as well. This should give you a better sense of what scoring in each category means related to your game:[spoiler]Gameplay/fun: 25 pointsThis one is kind of subjective, but I tried to break it down similar to my other scores.0: I can't delete this game fast enough1-4: Bad. I had to fight the controls, and I didn't want to finish playing it, but I had to because I'm a judge. I have trouble seeing where you were trying to go with this.5-11: Poor. I can see where you were trying to go, but you didn't quite get there in the week's time. The fun factor just wasn't quite there. A little more time and you might have been able to squeeze some fun out of your chosen direction through mechanics tweaks, or levels.12-18: Decent. I had some fun playing your game and you should be proud. You made a game that is kind of fun in only a week's time.19-22: Good. I had more than a little fun with your game. Other people seeing a score this high should check out this game. I might even steal an idea or two from the game.23-24: Great. I had lots of fun in your game. Everyone should definitely check out this game.25: Damn this game is fun! I'll probably play this some more after the competition.Graphics: 20 points0: You're bad, and you should feel bad! I highly doubt I'll be handing this out to anyone. 1-3: The graphics are bad enough that it detracts from the rest of the game.4-9: Not great graphics, but it's a game jam. There's no need to be ashamed here, but next year you might want to look into some free assets.10-14: Decent graphics for a jam. Here's where you should start to feel pride in your accomplishment. You managed to make a game in a week and the art is decent15-17: Good graphics for a jam. I could see this in a real game.18-19: Great graphics for a jam. How'd you have time for that? O.o20: Holy crap! This could be in a high quality game.Theme: 20 points0: You heard the theme right? Death is useful. And you made a farming game? 1-3: Death was mentioned in passing.4-9: Death is technically useful in your game, but it's a stretch.10-14: You've met the goal of death being useful.15-17: Death is useful and you put an interesting twist on it.18-19: Great concept, clever interpretation, and good execution.20: Wow, what an amazing idea! Great execution too!Audio: 10 points0: There was sound, I turned it off. My ears are bleeding!1: Lack of sound or bad sound effects/music.2-4: You have sound but it isn't great.5-7: You have sound in your game and it wasn't bad.8: Good sound effects.9: Great sound effects for a game jam.10: These sound effects are amazing.First Time User Experience: 10 points0: The game crashes, it's buggy, no documentation, and counter intuitive.1: Hard to figure out, bad experience.2-4: Some installation issues. Game works most of the time. Could use better documentation.5-7: Everything works.8: Intuitive and enjoyable experience.9: Great job. I forgot this was a game that was built in only a week.10: Flawless. No installer. Documentation was very clear or completely unnecessary.Participation: 10 pointsMust post links to your posts in the Competition ThreadThis is a slightly modified scale from Eck's:0: Didn't post anything anywhere except for the link to your game.0.5 points for each post that is: More than a few sentences1 points for each post that is good and detailed(or is a journal post).1 point for a meaningful comment on someone else's threadJudge's Discretion: 5 points-These points are up to each judge-[/spoiler]With that out of the way, you can find each team's progress listed here:Team: Slaughterhouse Gaming -

Wow, thanks for the detailed reviews and congrats to the winners :)

I'm really happy with my 2nd place (how could you not be?), thanks to the other entrants and especially the judging team.

It was a great competition!

Alas, I wanted to check all other games but didn't really get around to much... (another competition currently running)

Congratulations to the winners and a warm handshake to all the participants !

Big thanks to slicer4ever, the sponsors and all the judges.

First I was disappointed with my placement but after reading the judges' comments I understood better my mistakes and I will learn from them .

I hope I can come back next year, but as a little sponsor .

I'm surprised I came in fourth, when I saw Try.Die.Repeat and Bunny Hop I thought many more games that of that quality were cooking behind the scenes. Not that I'm complaining or anything

Congratulations to rodolfodth, devn00b, DifferentName, Endurion and Thaumaturge, all of your games are very fun to play. I'm currently showing them to my friends.

...but unfortunately a bug cropped up that left me unable to leave the room(each time i left it kicked me right back in). I wanted to explore and see if there were other hidden lives i had missed, but i decided to call it quits when i hit this bug as i'd already spent a lot of time in the game.

Darn, I was hoping nobody would find that bug. I discovered it a day after the contest had ended, and unfortunately the bug only seems to occur on the executable build with PyInstaller. This makes debugging really tedious.

...and wanting more levels

Heh, that's what I get for making the levels too late. The tutorial level was done during the entire week, but the last levels were only created in the last day of the competition. Well, that's something I should keep in mind when participating in competitions like this from now on.

great to hear DN!!!

As for our reviewers reward. I'd like to thank both Eck and DKoding for entering. both did an amazing job! However I must pick one of you to receive the reward, and after consideration, I have deceided that Eck will receive the 100$ However, since DKoding did such a great job, I will add a 2nd prize to the pool and award him 50$ for his work! Thank you to both of you for giving feedback to the contestants, and I will contact you both shortly.
