SPRING OHR OPEN COLLAB 2021

Post by Spoonweaver »

Hello!

In the Spring OHR Open Collab, EVERYONE wins!

Have you ever wanted to join up with someone and make something?
Were you a fan of the random colab contest?
Did you see the community game thread before it became the swordplay thread and think about joining in?
This is the event for you!

How to join:
Post in this thread as a scripter, an artist, or a helper and then you will be assigned to a team of other like minded individuals and given 2 weeks to make something playable.

What's a helper you ask? If you don't think you are an artist, and don't think your strengths lay in scripting, you're a helper. A helper assists both the scripter and artist as well as helps with all the other things, like making text boxes, mapping, inputting stats, writing the story, and so on. This position should help newer individuals join in, as well as allow people that are very talented in other positions to join other strong individuals.

You can sign up anytime before the beginning of the contest, which is March 20th. Games due on April 5th.

Rule: Every member of the team has to approve the team's game that is entered into the contest

Everyone who enters and is part of a team that submits a game will have their $5 entry fee into the Summer Slam contest covered.

Each member of the winning team will get a box of random prizes. (assuming they provide me with their address and consent)

Wacky idea, but what if we merged those two contests together? The Ridiculous Collab Contest?

There can be more than 1 contest at a time.
Also, any contest not yet posted on the forum doesn't exist yet and couldn't possibly be scheduled around.

I'd like to join in as a helper, or as a junior scripter, if that's a thing you can be? I have professional programming experience, and I can generally figure out how to make things work in HamsterSpeak without any trouble, but I don't have the experience with the OHRRPGCE specifically that's necessary to script things quickly. I end up having to spend a lot of time looking things up in the plotscripting dictionary, or writing a few lines of code and then testing it in the game to make sure those lines are doing what I thought they would.

I'll toss up some music that any and all teams can use.

Is there any decent free music editing software available these days? If not, you will get a capella songs from me or something.

If you want a standard DAW, Reaper is really good and you can "evaluate" it indefinitely
