MaGLX3 - Composers STILL wanted!!!

[ohmato]

put me in coach




you have permission to use this as the postgame song

[Sturg]

If you make a hot SYNTHWAVE remix of that I'll do it

[Sebby19]

Do you accept beatboxing and mouth noises?

[Sturg]

If it's kickin' then yeah

[Sebby19]

Awesome. Though I would probably pass out from lack of air, if I actually tried to be good at it.

[Ignoritus]

I say start the contest soon, but just be sure to give a long enough submission period that if people want to wait for the next beta update before starting it's still reasonable to do so.

I say start the contest soon, but just be sure to give a long enough submission period that if people want to wait for the next beta update before starting it's still reasonable to do so.

That would be an absolute nightmare to manage, given the fact that beta 3 stuff has been ever so slightly tweaked that there's a real chance certain levels would have to be manually updated afterwards. Not to mention the gimmick being more broad for people who do decide to wait, giving them more options, which will make signups before that point in time unappealing.
Considering what's left to do for Beta 4 I think we're not that far off from a release, but it depends on how quickly we can get the performance improvements we need in lua core. If the contest was gonna be held on Beta 3 we might aswell have started 5 months ago.

[SAJewers]

I think at this point it's clear any sort of 2017 contest should be cancelled.

[Sebby19]

I have been getting a little impatient waiting, and I've been thinking to pass the time by running a mini-contest (10 levels) to test out my music restriction (and get experience).

[LaRssA]

What is the current schedule and deadlines?

I'm interested in contributing with music. I work mainly with music for feature films (orchestral/modern hybrids) and some games, but
something like this sounds like a cool side-project.

Are there any guide-lines and/or styles? traditional 8-bit sound? anything goes?

I could probably get you guys some demo's (or a link to my imdb if it's urgent), but I might not be able to do it until after
new years.

[Sturg]

As of now, there is no deadline for the music, as the contest still won't start for a bit and I'll need the music once the contest is finished.

These are really the only few rules I'd like to have people follow when composing for this thing:

1. There's somewhat of a gimmick that everyone is following, I can PM it to you.
2. Have the audio come in a lossless format, unless the size is gigantic.
3. Have it loop, somewhat.

Feel free to PM me with demo stuff if you'd like, and then I could provide you with more info about this.

[LaRssA]

Sounds good - I'll PM you with material early 2018!

Feel free to PM me whatever info you have as of now...

[Ometeotl]

So...

[Zha Hong Lang]

So...

blame wohl

[Ivy]

Beta 4 Soon..,

[Sorel]

Can we still blame Wohl?

[Sturg]

At this point, I think Beta 4 devs are considering skipping out on waiting for PGE stuff and just move onto the release.

Which would be HECKIN' sweet

[Enjl]

Yeah PGE shenanigans look to take ages. We're not gonna wait a year for that. Summer seems realistic at the current pace.

[Sebby19]

If I had more time to actually run the darn thing, I was gonna ask ya if running a mini-contest (to try out my music idea) would be okay. By mini, I mean 10 contestants, tops.

I'm only asking to make sure I wasn't stepping on Sturg's toes.

[Sorel]

What‘s the current status?

[Sorel]

...well?

[ano0maly]

I think you're better off joining Codehaus and asking about Beta 4

[Sturg]

A lot of the devs right now are unfortunately busy currently with real life stuff (as far as I know). While there has been a good amount of progress on the "to-do" list before release, there has just been a small lull in progress the last week or so.

Feel free to join codehaus though to watch the B4 progress though!

[SAJewers]

wat

[Blivsey]

well do you?????
