2014 Indie Game Maker Contest

I wonder if a mini-game could be entered into the Non-RPG category...
Like a space invaders type deal with various levels....

Edit:

Read the full rules and guidelines found HERE.

The answer to my question would clearly be a yes.

If only it wasn't exam month :(

So freaking tempting. I asked a question in the comments but no reply yet, let's try it here:

I'm working on YANTH at the moment, I know that won't be possible to submit. There is however a standalone minigame (sub game?) that will be bundled with YANTH that stars the same main character. It hasn't been developed yet. Can that be submitted assuming development starts today and ends on the deadline?

edit: answered by Deckiller~ good to go!

For that kind of prize, I can't help but at least try. We'll see how it goes!

Yeap, thats enough to motivate even a lazy son of a ---- like me...

I've already started scouting resources :D

Email, they responded really quickly to my email.

This sounds like fun!

I think I will materialize one of the mini games I was planning on doing into a little game =D

Goodluck to anyone entering. I am really interested in seeing what people come up with

Also if anyone is interested in teaming up PM me =D

Well, what do you have to lose by trying, huh?

I really enjoy competitions and I'm also glad about all the news regarding the Humble Bundle (already got mine + a gift one). This really sets me up for the mood and makes me want to take part on this one. It's great to see so much incentive, and I really hope that it can be a good excuse for people to try to finish a good game giving all the efforts!

Unfortunately for me I've already committed to someone's project.  I wish everyone good luck with their entries and I will be around to help you test, refine, or assist anyway I can.  For that much money, I think we can expect some pretty good things to come out of the next month.

Yeah, the amount of money is incredible. I'm going to put a lot of effort into this one!

Yeah, I've already told my husband not to expect to see me until July. The kids will have to fend for themselves.

Touchfuzzy and I are checking periodically for any questions you may have. Feel free to ask, no matter how trivial. This is a huge contest so we wanted to spell out everything in the rules, but there are always things that can be cleared up. We'll also keep expanding the FAQ with any common questions :)

Hmm.. is it feasible for a relative newbie without an artist or musician at my disposal to have a shot?

oh hell yea. I am down. Now time to flex my game muscles! "Project LAZY" GO!

-edit- Do we join again if we already a member here/?

What is the dashboard and stuff there for. It's a little confusing at 9pm after working a 14 1/2 hour day.

Basically it's just a dashboard for your profile to upload your game on.

Going to participate for PURE fun. I don't think i'm gonna win something with this project i have in development right now (the language is too rude, so much that i will have to make a "lite" version of it where i delete the bad vocabulary) but hey, as i said, this is for fun :)

I want to see what people is capable of make! :D

Shouldn't you make a new project from scratch to enter?

Preexisting projects are not eligible. You'll have to start a game from scratch. You can use preexisting assets (music, graphics, ideas) but the game itself (maps, cutscenes, battle system, etc.) must be made during the contest period.

Why do all the awesome events start at a time where I'm too busy to participate? :(
