I'm probably exempt from this 'cause I'm an admin, right?

My entry is finished and ready !

.. But before i submit ..

How does the competition deal with an entry that's ( within the official rules, yet still ) Turing-Complete ?

Ricky's picture

Turing-complete? what does that mean?

OldManClayton's picture

A game made in another programming language perhaps? O_o

Jon Lambert's picture

Nah, tiring complete means something weird, that it can simulate a Turing Machine, although I don't know why that raises a question in his mind...

OldManClayton's picture

I thought they used that term to mean robust coding languages sometimes.

Jon Lambert's picture

Well yeah but he said the program itself is Turing Complete, so he must have made a programming language.

OldManClayton's picture

In 20 events? That would be some entry!

Guess we'll have to see what he meant when he comes back.

So, I entered this competition two or three years ago, was the bonus points for unused events removed? I agree with it needing to be removed, but I wanted to check before working on something because it drastically changes what id be making!

KetchupMaster's picture

Yes, that rule was removed.

Jacob's picture

@t0nad0 You did EIM, right? That game was awesome :D

t0nad0's picture

Haha yes, thank you! I'm a bit shocked that someone would recognize me :) I recognize your name but I can't remember what you made -- you got third right? I tried looking for the original contest page but it seems its disappeared from the internet!

Jacob's picture

Nah, I got like seventeenth or something, I wasn't very good back then :P

Good luck in the compo, everyone! I think I'm a little late to the game this year so I'm not sure if Andy and I will have anything. I'll see if I can get some sprites together... :)

Adam's picture

Jess you'd better enter red

OldManClayton's picture

Agreed. You'd better enter.

Jacob's picture

I'll dock you 1 GB point if you don't enter u_ u

Adam's picture

I'll ban him u_ u. And KetchupMaster will unban him a month later.

Are there any links to previous contest winners' entries?

Click here to see an amazing effect!
A visual effect!
Takes around 15 minutes to fully create itself (I would reduce but haven't worked out how yet).
I would've submitted it to 20-event, but 1) I'm too late, 2) Doesn't really have much purpose.
That said, it only has 3 events - create new particles, create new layer, show completion text. And the last one of those I could take out.
:)
Enjoy!

Not bad SortaCore. You should check out my Iris visualisation. It's similar to what you're doing with particles and trigonometry.

Jabs's picture

Both of those are very cool examples :)

I'm really tired of spammers. They post totally random comments about all kinds of crap.
