Still figuring out what sort of tech I'll use.
I'm thinking unity but my concept could do perfectly well raycast.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Oh man, this: http://revert3d.blogspot.com/ would be perfect for getting something coherent up quickly. Unfortunately unreleased and in the midst of active development.

@FuzzYspo0N Yes, I'm aware!  At this point, though, I think I'm beginning to like the idea of embracing this as a technical challenge rather than a predominantly creative one. So I believe I'll take the difficult route for this if I can.

I think I'll do this. I've never made a FPS before, and it would be a good excuse to learn unity.

Goon : The rules I posted are the rules of the challenge, interpreted however you want.
The rules you posted do not apply.
Wait, that sounds like a paradox! I am allowed to interpret the rules posted but my interpretation doesn't apply even though I can interpret them however I want! My head is about to explode! BOOM!

Seasons and I started on a warmup game... not really a game, just an engine. It has your basics: movement, mouselook, shooting, collisions, one enemy.  This is made in Game Maker... Going to be a pain. I'm going to (try to) make a primitive level editor the week before it starts, hopefully that will be of some help to others. The goal is a layer system, with each layer being a floor of the level. The goal is to make levels more visually interesting by varying the heights of some platforms. Maybe if I figure out slopes and stuff, it will be cooler...

I've been following the tutorials that Joshua posted. It's the first time I'm using Unity for real, and I'm loving it.  I'm absolutely going it for this event and much more in the future when making 3D games.

in addition to Unity there's also ZGameEditor and GameStart3D, if anyone is looking for easy to use solutions for a 3d FPS game.

Any artists want to team-up? I'm thinking Raycaster engine in C++/SDL, although I'd be open to a SIMPLE OpenGL one-level game.

I started working on a level editor for Game Maker, because hahaha you think im gonna use a crappy 2d editor to make a 3D level.
It doesn't work yet, but I'm getting close...
