Keen 4 minimod contest -- with prizes!
Posted: Wed Mar 14, 2007 1:05 am
Hello everyone! To celebrate Keen day 2007 and the third anniversary of ModKeen2, I would like to announce a Keen 4 minimod contest.
The rules are simple: create a mod of Keen 4 that meets the following criteris
1. The mod must be for Keen 4 version 1.4.
2. The main "Shadowlands" must be customised (at least in appearance).
3. The mod must contain either one or two (your choice) custom made levels.
4. The mod must have at least custom graphics for at least two sprites.
5. All customised content in the mod must be original and not previously released.
Entry is open to all members of keenmodding.org, and at no cost. If you wish to participate, please ensure the email address in your keenmodding.org profile is correct, and send an email keenmoddingcontest@andy.durdin.net to indicate your interest.
The final mod must be submitted to keenmoddingcontest@andy.durdin.net on or before the 1st of July 2007.
Contest winners will be announced on the 8th of July 2007.
Three winning entries will receive prizes as shown below.
I appreciate that some of the tools can be hard to get running, so I am allowing two whole months for the minimod to be made. I will be available to assist as best as I can with technical problems during the contest period, on this forum, by email, or by IM -- the email address and IM accounts are posted in my profile. If you wish to contact me by IM, please send me an email first so that I can authorise your account.
Finally, if you have any questions about this contest, please post them in this other thread -- This announcement will be locked, and only updates and clarifications will be posted in it.
Happy modding!
Clarification #1: You may if you wish alter the map level with a level editor; but if not you must at least alter the tile images used on the map so that your level does not look like 'Border Village'.
