remvst Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I might give it a try for a new game. I don't expect to win anything at all, but I'd love to participate in such a competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyttk Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 This is a fantastic competition. If only I was still a student.. don't suppose 'possible future postgrad student' counts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felipe Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Great competition! With all the benefits of been a student, I wished I haven't droped the university. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austin Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 @Tommyttk - unfortunately it does not. What I've been telling people is to treat the money they would have used on tuition as an amazing cash prize Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srachit Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Hey remvst, I am taking art in the competition aswell and I also am not sure what to make exactly, although I have a few rough ideas, maybe you'd like to collaborate? We could brainstorm some ideas and work on which we feel is the best? Send me a PM if you are interested, I can be contacted over skype messenger, gmail messenger and hotmail messenger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remvst Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Yeah that's a good idea, but I'm not sure I could be a good teammate on such a project. I kinda have my own methods I hope to see some great games from the competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
