Re: Contest Suggestions

A conceptually-based contest, the aim being to design something new to pontentially add to the series.

In other words, a contest to see who can come up with the best gimmick.

Re: Contest Suggestions

How about a contest to see who can get all of the achievements in DOTD the fastest? If you already did then make a new profile and do it again. (this idea sucks but idc. I had nothing better) XP

Re: Contest Suggestions

I was thinking about best flight times on StD/RR/YotD... but that sounds pretty easy and common. I tried to do this, though, but I didn't get many reactions... sad

Another good one can be finishing a/some level(s) without killing enemies, getting gems or Dragons/Eggs/orbs as fast as possible. But those two are only in the classics...

For TLoS, I would suggest to do something with either speed or restrictions, like a time trial or completing a goal without armor or without getting hit, etc.

In common, you can probarbly think of anything... dunno.

I find Time Trials always pretty challenging. The problem is, though, that you need to record/take a picture of things to prove it. Now with skateboarding/flight challenges this is not hard. However, some people don't want to use their video recorder or whatever. To be honest, I'm not full of contest ideas, and I won't get them soon either. I'm practically thinking of these things in comparison to KH358/2 challenges (SP.), which I like. So it's pretty difficult... oh, well, maybe this gives some ideas...

Re: Contest Suggestions

Interesting. Well sadly the PS3 doesn't have trophies or achievements in Dotd, so it could limit others out. But i like the idea. The only problem is for the longest flight and beat a level with out killing or taking damage is also good, but they would have to film it instead of posting saying they did. What we cold do is have a comic contest on who can write the funnest Comic, and as an added bonus if you Draw the comic with the Words you get bonus Gems.

Awesome ideas so far ^.=.^ I suppose if people could Post or Pm me or something i could start a contest with those video requirements like survival or something.

Re: Contest Suggestions

There are people who buy micro chips that they can add to their Concsles to record exactly on screen, or you can have a regular video camera set up to record the screen.

Re: Contest Suggestions

I thought that the recorded video has lines on it though. How much would one of those chips cost? Im guessing beastly.

Re: Contest Suggestions

I'll see if I can find another solution. I'm not an expert in drawing, ya know, and up to now I've seen valentine and comic... xD Not that I don't like it, but the chance that I participate gets smaller, since I'm better at the game itsself than drawing elements of them wink

Re: Contest Suggestions

How about a Simple Level Design Contest? The Admin or the Contest Runners give a plot about the a game that could be made about Spyro. It is simply a General Outline of what the game is about or basic pieces of information (Enemies, Allies, What the objective of the whole game would be) as this would allow People to freely either base it on TLoS Series or the Original Insomniac Games.

It is then up to everyone else who wishes to enter to design ONE Level that could be in the Game.

The Levels would have to be extremely descriptive and maybe fit a certain Word Count while sticking with the Theme of Spyro

It would be a great idea for a contest I think but it would also offer the opportunity for the whole forum to tell each other what they would have done with the Spyro Series had they been given the opportunity to design one.
