You must make a game based on one of these "axioms" by august 31

Quote

List of Axioms:

- A picture is worth a thousand words
- Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
- Even a broken clock is right twice a day
- Laughter is the best medicine
- No good deed goes unpunished
- Quitters never win; winners never quit
- Actions speak louder than words
- Where there's smoke, there's fire
- In the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king
- A burnt child dreads the fire

And the prize is being part of their ad sharing closed beta plus some steam game.

Does anyone else know about this?

PS: If anyone wants to team up with me I need a spriter and maybe a tracker musician

I would for the fun of it! But I'm just decent at pixel art and sprite work! I have also never completed a game in my life!

Hey Supreme, you should try to collab with someone, then.

'No good deed goes unpunished' this will be the most popular one used for the contest I reckon.

Huh. I'd do this, but I'm not sure if I can make something nice in a month, especially seeing as I haven't motivated myself to program anything all summer basically.

I have a good idea for one of them, but it's probably been thought of by everyone

don't mind me, just postin' after a few brewskies

Tell me what it is

I'll tell my idea it's a quest of someone trying to cure a mortal disease with laughter (but it doesn't in the end because laughter doesn't cure anything)

Ps that's probably what you thought

Quitters never win, winners never quit. But make one of these: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRviZKJIjSw&feature=related

And then loop it to the beginning at the end.

You only have a couple weeks anyway.

EDIT:
What is a 'tracker musician?' I can write moderately...decent...sounding MIDIs if that's what you're looking for. There are better composers on GW though, so you should prolly ask around. Also, the second file ends short because it was meant to be looped. Oh, and a couple of them are unfinished.

I wrote these way back in middle school (nearly 6 years ago), and I haven't written one since, so I'd be a little rusty. I've been composing for other instruments though, so I'm not terrible. Let me know if you're interested. Aside from music, I can help with pretty much anything you tell me to do, except programming. I secretly just want to finish * a game * just so I can GET OVER MYSELF and GO ON WITH LIFE.
