We're hosting an ExGFX contest some time soon (but it isn't locked on a date yet, just "soon"), but I'd like to hear a few suggestions from our userbase. Here's the previous contest for some information.
ExGFX Contest is a biannual contest (or so I'd think) which requires users to draw tilesets depending on the given theme. I think this is a good idea to "expand on something that we're missing" (like more tilesets for uncommon themes for example?).
Assuming we're not changing the type of this contest, the rules could stay the same, althought there might be a few tweaks.
Here are some ideas:
- If we're not trying anything new, the Background/Foreground ExGFX Contest would happen again.
- A Sprite ExGFX Contest, where users will reskin one (all would be too time consuming) sprite tileset into... something else?
- An Overworld ExGFX Contest, where users will draw a custom overworld that may or may not work with the vanilla overworld.
I don't know for how long I'll keep this thread up... maybe one week? Anyway, Discuss!
