This is a TIGSource TIGER Assault Free Form Competition.

What is TIGSource?  You're sitting in it.

What is TIGER Assault?  TIGER Assaults are short competitions based around a particular theme.  The emphasis is on collaboration, sharing, and, most of all, the completion of projects.  I.e., it's an exercise in making small, tight, enjoyable/interesting games that can be played from beginning to end.  There are no prizes involved.

What is Free Form?  Any format goes!  But the game must at least run on Win32 platforms.  Sorry.



How do I make an entry for the competition?

1. First, open up the Video Game Name Generator.

2. Next, find a name for the game that you want to make.
(Peeing your pants out of mirth is recommended during this part.)

3. Finally, MAKE THAT GAME.

Optional Secondary Objective: BRAND LEADERSHIP



Start Date: Sunday, March 2nd, Midnight

End Date: Monday, March 24th, Midnight

Rules: Entries should be started and ended within the timeframe of the competition (feel free to put up your game threads and begin brainstorming earlier, though) and must be made for the competition only.  Collaborations are allowed and, in fact, are welcomed.  You may submit more than one game.

As usual, you may start a thread to track the development of your game!  Be sure to select the "VGNG" message icon to accompany your post.

Let's do it! Smiley

I saw the front page thing and thought we had to make a random name generator, so I started this before checking the compo.

I think you can use anything you want and that there's no (material) prize.

Oww, I'd love to participate but I'll have to work full steam on my project for the Breakpoint demoparty at the moment. Maybe this will be done faster than expected though, then I'll definitely try something. The theme is definitely awesome!

I'm having the same problem, I have like 8 written down. The next hard bit will be finishing at least one. I can tell that if i do it will be tres shitty.

But hey, Morbidly Obese Jazz Siege deserves to be made, as does Frisky Sumo Heroes Cheesy

I may have to go with 8-bit Gun Tale, since I can realistically make that one.

I may actually try this one! That is, if I get a worthwhile title from the generator.
