So, according to here, TINS is currently only 1 day 8 hours away. Just thought I'd make a thread about it, because there's not a whole lot of TINS chatter going on at the moment, heh. So is everyone that's participating ready?

Quote: because there's not a whole lot of TINS chatter going on at the moment I know, it's almost...eerie. This is going to be a weird compo for me. Huge amounts of time are already blocked out, giving me far less than 72 hours. However, I think a winning TINS title is not something that can be made in 72 hours, but more like 20 hours. I'm going to try to get my sleeping schedule a little more normalized for the event. I have been working on a game pretty heavily all of March. I was hoping to release it this past Monday, but a few zits popped up and I decided to delay it a week to get its face washed. ------------ |

Damn it, I just caught the flu. I don't think I'll make it this time. Well, my games never win anything... -R |

I've already written my game. Now I just need to make it conform to the rules. |

I was going to call you a cheater, but then I read the rules. Oh, what a fool I have been! -R |

I got kicked in the head at football yesterday. I think I might have had a minor concussion. I don't think anything is broken but I have a black eye and my whole head hurts like hell and I'm a little dizzy all the time. Also I just got a tiny little programming job with the due date on sunday. I'll still try to make something for TINS though. This is going to be a very interesting weekend. -- |

Quote: I got kicked in the head at football yesterday. I think I might have had a minor concussion. Of course you're going to go to the doctor if you start throwing up? When I had concussion, after falling down some stairs on an icy day, the "adult head injuries" booklet I was given by a doctor suggested that medical attention would follow if I threw up 5 or more times, otherwise no treatment was required. Very odd. [My site] [Tetrominoes] |

I do feel a little nauseous but I didn't throw up, so I guess I'll be OK. -- |

If you still feel nauseous two or three days after the injury I would at least talk to the hospital staff and get their advice. I'm not implying we're not doctors here at A.cc, but it can be good to get a second opinion. |

Quote: News is hard. I don't particularly like it as an art rule, but meh. I think I've decided on what I want to do. Afterwards, I went to news.google.com and searched for the base theme and found a topic on March 13th, 2007, which will give me a setting and a background story, so I think I'm good here. Of course, I won't place high on this category, especially since it isn't world news. ------------ |

It's all good, except for the news part. I might make a very very simple game about burning garbage and then shoehorn some news. -R |

Hm. I may be completely effed. I'm at my university right now, about to head home. If you don't hear from me, I'm still without internet access. If I don't have internet, I'm just not going to participate. I have a bunch of homework I need to catch up on, and I haven't seen 300 on IMAX yet... --- |

You can still participate and upload on monday from your university. You don't need internet to participate at all. |

I'd like to propose a convention for this year's speedhack: set_config_file("../speedhack.ini"); int width = get_config_int("graphics", "width", 640); int height = get_config_int("graphics", "height", 480); int card = get_config_id("graphics", "card", GFX_AUTODETECT_WINDOWED); int depth = get_config_int("graphics", "depth", 32); Modify width and height to be in range for your application of course. Just a little thing that could make the games easier to playtest. [edit] -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

Well, I have internet! Just got down to business and the requirements are kicking my ass so far; need to think for a while. --- |

I've already got my own config routine. How 'bout we just make it convention to have the above avaible in a .ini file of some sort? ------------ |

That defeats the purpose of setting it once for override_config_file("../speedhack.ini"); int width = get_config_int("graphics", "width", 640); int height = get_config_int("graphics", "height", 480); int card = get_config_id("graphics", "card", GFX_AUTODETECT_WINDOWED); int depth = get_config_int("graphics", "depth", 32); override_config_file(NULL);

Doesn't this assume that all games are going to be intended for the same kind of resolution? That seems rather... wrong. -- |

It started quite a while (6 or 7 hours ago), but I convinced a guy to join about 30 minutes ago, so...join! ------------ |
