As long as I have at least a few people on board, this will happen. However, I do want to have a short discussion before I begin it.
First off, what would we all agree is a decent time frame to complete this quest in?
My thoughts at the moment are to give everyone either 3 days or a week for planning and then having the contest conclude after a month.
Another thing I was thinking about was prizes for the contest. I am not really sure what kind of prize could be given out, nor am I sure if any would be deemed necessary. That said, any ideas are welcome for suggestion.
So why me to run a contest?
A bit of an unknown fact about me to most people is that I used to run contests on a different forum that I assisted in administration some 5 years ago. There I was the head of role plays and contests.
I put a heavy emphasis on both taking the responsibility as a host seriously, and also being accomodating to the public's ideas and wishes.
I would like to note right now, that should this contest go well, as I intend for it to, it is highly likely that I will continue with my own quest/dungeon contests.
All manner of creations will be acceptable, within the rules of course. Whether they be serious or trollololsy.
So let us speak briefly about this.
What is the community's thoughts on this Metroidvania contest?
How long would you say is good for planning?
Is a month a good time frame for the actual design? Or should this be adjusted?
Any suggestions on potential prizes? Or will just the enjoyment of a the contest suffice?
Should we have categories for Best ofs?
