24hosmw #7: Discussion/Questions

Link Thread Closed
This is the first ever 24hosmw contest I've participated in. I hope I ATLEAST get Top 30 because the 7th Annual VLDC Contest was a disappointment.

Code
77th: chineesmw: 59.25/80

Thanks you (and everyone else) for the kind words regarding my entry. As for that glitch, yeah I encountered it too. I guess it's related to the levelASM code that makes the layer 2 scroll for the boss fight. I have no idea why that happened but seeing as it's not gonna be judged, I couldn't be bothered to look into it for fixing xD

... what even am I doing with my life?
I've played some of the levels and some were really fun. Even if some them were a bit (just a bit) frustrating many af them are really fun, especial Jack's (except of the last life) and leod's level.

Damn, I don't think I've seen an entry closer to the deadline before. Though it's not something I usually pay attention to anyway.

I'm really impressed with a lot of these entries so far, so I'm a little concerned that my entry might be too vanilla gameplay-wise (Boss HP is changed though, but that's nothing compared to what some people have done). I'm proud of the graphics I've made for the Big Boo and the Boo Blocks; since they are going to be used in Aether, they have almost entirely original designs.

I'd also like to know what people think of my entry because I like the attention.

Yeah, that was really last minute. GJ, SRH.

Not the best one but it was o.k. and there were worse entries anyway. ^^
...I could have improved at some points of my entry, but now the time is up. At least I had fun making it and thinking of some ideas for it.

Still, there are a few impressive entries out there (like Jack's and worldpeace's) that warrant being on the top, some of them coming up on the last minute. Not to mention that I was challenged to do one while being small. :P

a bit of delay and laziness prevented me from participating in this contest... oh well, maybe next time.
My Inspiring Quotes on Personal Growth and Change:

"Resolved financial/personal problems equal greater growth!"

"The only constant thing in life is change; nothing is set in stone. The old is replaced with the new. Forgive yourself for past mistakes. When many different problems in your life are resolved (personal, financial, etc.), newfound strength and confidence is gained in the process. Usually, failures, lack of assertiveness, disappointments, incompetence, low self-esteem and lack of self-respect, financial struggles, and setbacks can cause us to change and take action to solve any problem, leading to increased strength and confidence. This you learn from experience.

I have been experiencing this aforementioned newfound strength and confidence myself for the past FOUR to EIGHT years or so, getting stronger with each passing year, learning with each mistake I make and becoming more joyful in the process. Because of this newfound confidence I've acquired over the years, finding my passion is of utmost importance in 2022! You can develop this strength and confidence in yourself as well!"


To whoever's reading this, you are amazing and you are capable of doing equally amazing things. Gather confidence and be yourself! Say goodbye to the old you and welcome the new you! It wants to arise every moment, but you don't let it. Learn from your mistakes and never make that mistake again! Find your passion and live it!"

Finding my passion in life, but I may still be active on SMWCentral from time to time. Still enjoy playing many hacks, but I'm widening my perspective on life and opening myself to the new.
I've just noticed there was a little bug with my entry. I'm not trying to update it or anything, but all I have to say is:

DO NOT USE THE RESET DOORS !!!

Heh, yes. I'm so damn lucky! When I tried to edit my post, it said "u canntt eddit posts in te closd thrds fgt!!!!!!!" I noticed that it was finished. I'm glad I made it, even though I proably won't make it to the top 66. (there are 67 entries if you wonder..)
thankfully I was able to finish my entry, and I hope people think it stands out in a way compared to others. I also saw many interesting looking entries, so competition is tough I think.

good luck to all entrants.

It certainly does stand out to an extent. I though it was glitched at first. I am not sure if it is for the better or worse though.
I'm trying to play thorugh every entry right now. I won't be able to upload videos every day, but for now, watch these 2 videos:
24hosmw #7 contest - part 1
24hosmw #7 contest - part 2
Wow, I just saw PatPatPat's entry... I was planing to do like the exact same thing at first xD Though I was planing on making the boos in the right disappear when hit but still.
Good thing I didn't, would have been akward :x

EDIT: Also Ryokun, nice LP, keep it up #smw{:TUP:}

the no-yoshi intro is definitely a glitched mess, and also the whole asm code is just a mess which I shaped into this. in a way, it's true, but everything is definitely intended!

I'm curious to know what kind of entry you have, videogames. For now:

24hosmw #7 contest - part 3
24hosmw #7 contest - part 4
Was tempted to enter this contest; had a idea prepared, but decided against it in the end. However, after watching Rykon's videos to check out some of the entries, I was shocked to see what I had planned was exactly what Sokobansolver offered up to a tee. o_O

Obviously, similarities will exist among entries, especially in a contest like this, but didn't expect that. Though, now I'm curious to see where his entry will slot in.
I had an idea too, but I was afraid the judges would be overcritical, and I was afraid there wouldn't be enough time to make something good.
Seems to be quite a few interesting entries this time around; it will be fun to see how the judging turns out. (hopefully I'll be able to redeem myself slightly after the last VLDC contest :V) I think my personal favourite is Sokobansolver's entry: a really simple concept, but it still makes for a completely different experience from the normal battle. As for the more conventional ones, MercuryPenny's is definitely up there; it's just a pity about that slowdown before the first hit.

On an unrelated note, I find it interesting how many people put in reset doors for their battles. I personally am not a big fan of being able to reset a boss battle like that; being able to just start the battle over whenever things start to go badly makes the boss feel... well, not very threatening, since in a lot of cases you can just keep resetting until everything goes perfectly and never be in any real danger of failing. Although I suppose it doesn't really matter a whole lot in this contest, since death and resetting are pretty much equivalent other than their effect on the life counter. I don't know, just some random design musings.
