Why is the sprite update taking so long? The tl;dr version:
on an unrelated note, think we’re gonna have an animation competition this year, like a bracket system
1 v 1 animators given a 30-second animation prompt
community votes
winner advances
Community vote? Interesting
I say this every time and I never do it but this time, I’d actually join if this becomes a thing
lmfao announce this outside of the website and you’ll get the wildest competition you’ll ever see
it’ll be the splash screen contest all over again
obligatory if you’re serious about this:
i don’t think community votes are the way to go since it’ll be a popularity contest more or less, unless it’s some sort of livestreamed thing where people in the chat can vote
Considering how collab entries are usually 30-50 seconds long and the good ones are uploaded last day, you’re gonna burn out the good animators out lmao
Especially tournament format, since they would need to go through like 40 rounds only to lose to a guy who secretly used pivot
true, maybe something more quick fire, like 15-second max animation
can’t really go too insane with a animation time limit and irl time limit to submit
Or just tell them a vague term to create very short anim. Stuff like flip, break, rise etc.
Max 10 seconds. Then it could go into rapid fire compilation.
Actually ditch the tournament. Make it similar to those 30 day art challenges, like inktober etc. (but it’s only like 5 or so) If they managed to do a short for every week, they win the challenge.
Then best participants are collected and community can vote on their favourite entries for each week.
i said i want a tournament arc and im gonna get a tournament arc
Sounds like more excuses to me-
So long as my kids get the update and not my grandkids I’ll be happy.
yeah fuck grandkids they’re the worst
You have no say on that, neither do I but I’m not 30.
neither am i
Show him our emails where I call you a dumbass every time you “finish” the update and have to rework entire thing from scratch.
