I hope you get better soon
Please keep us informed

About the compo, here's the little I've done so far. It should be some kind of space exploration game. (for the arcade console)

oh now that is nice. lovely animation.

i ddid create some art myself but its all a bit generic shooter at the moment

btw, keep and eye on the tile limit, animations shouldnt add up though if you get my meaning.

I'm not sure to understand.

Are we allowed to have two 64x128 tilesets? One for solid tiles and the oder for background tiles?
And can we use different tilesets in different frames?

About sprites, 64x128 would only be the objects size limit right?

huh? where did my post go?

sorry i'll explain better

make 3 backdrop objects sized 64*128 each.
yoour total object area has to fit inside the boxes

1 is for actives only
1 is for backdrops
1 is for backdrops or parallax only (depending on if you are using parallax scrolling in any layers)

I didn't want to make a triple post. I'm still working on mine fairly regularly.

Oh wait I thought you had bumped the Next gen competition thread.

Ok due to lack of interest i had actually given up on this one. Unless people actually keep posting every now and then i can't tell whether anyone is still actually taking part.
Also I doubt there will be any posts after this one either so, we'll see.

The trouble is, this is the second time ive attempted to make this competition and it keep dying down and being forgotten.
Not to mention other people constantly creating competitions all the time.

I did want to revise the rules a bit but, that would be a bit rude since people are still making games.

Is this competition still running? If not, I'd like to see this be the next big competition on TDC.

We just need some solid rules, presented in a way that's easy to read and compare. Then a front page news post and we're all go.
