Something tells me you won't ever have to worry about it.

What if I worry, irrationally, about everything?

More importantly, what if the Earth suddenly falls into the sun?

Ok, so I'm reading this and thinking "I'm so in...  It will make a good break from my [yet to be announced] current project."

...And I'm clicking the name generator and writing down good ideas.

...And then it totally, honestly, seriously, comes up with (a minor variation on) the name of my current project...  For reals.


So, um.  Can the order be different?  As in
1. write project
2. click name generator
3. Huh?
4. profit?


....somehow that seems like cheating...

I've this silly problem... I came across one of this random names that gave me a nice idea, but I didn't write it down!!! I think it was something like "Bizarro Dwarf Fiesta", but I'm not 100% sure...

Don't laugh, but I've been the whole morning pressing the 'next' button in order to get something similar: at least Dwarf and Party or Fiesta toguether... but no way! XD

Does anyone remember a name like that, or is it possible to check if it may be generated? If that's not 'allowed' I'll try to think about something different (the list of names I've written down is huge!)

Edited: Yup! I got Dwarven Shark Melee, which I could use... but no idea what does 'shark' mean there...
Re-edit: ...meaning that I want dwarves, not small sharks moving around :D

Man , just go with "Bizarro dwarf fiesta" if you like it Wink
What's important is the inspiration and ideas coming from the VGNG.

The rules do say: "Entries should be started and ended within the timeframe of the competition"

Can you guys just leave the name generator running after the competition is over so I can make all of them?
The name generator's been there for a long time before this competition was proposed, and probably will remain there for a long while after it ends!

Naturally, you're free to offer, but you'd need the winners' permission etc. Also, do you mean one-off printing, or printing for commercial purposes? What would you be charging people for said printings?

There's no place for ambiguity in the cut-throat world of T-shirt screen printing.

Sounds cool, anyway, assuming you were hinting at an arrangement that was cool.

"Toxic Burger- Second Impact" inspired me to create an fast-paced arcade game with unusual, experimental controls. Basically, you could only change your movement direction by bouncing off objects. It sounded fun at first, but turned out to be incredibly boring. Oh well. Not all experiments succeed.

So now I'm working on my second project for this competition. It's not quite as original, but should be much more fun. I'll post a topic as soon as I get some nice screenies.

If 25% of them actually finish, that is.

oh i just meant one-off prints mailed to the developers as a prize.  i would cover the cost of the shirts out of pocket and/or take donations.  like make 3 shirts each of the top 3 winners & mail them out.

I've vaguely started work on Darkest Chef from Hell, and by that I mean have copypasted a whole heap of code from an earlier project and made one tile.

Yeah, never going to get it done :p

I have, too, vaguely started work on my entry.
By that I mean drawing amazing concept art in MS Paint and composing music in thy windows sound recording program- whatever it may now be called.
Fear my skills.  :D

And fear the title.

Can I just throw something out there?  Now, nobody's expecting 100% of these entries to see the light of day, but what if...

WHAT IF, MY FRIENDS...

This forum would create a vortex. A vortex in the time-space cotinuum so powerful that would make the internets collapse into itself, then explode with force unseen by man, creating a new universe, a new GOD.

Or maybe it'd just be awesome. Really awesome.
