Hey guys --
On occasion my message board has mini-game-developing competitions, and was wondering if anyone would like to partake in the summer time competitions.
Competition #2: Unintuitive Physics - May 16th to June 13th
http://board.moosader.com/viewforum.php?f=25
Make a game with unintuitive physics.
This means, completely go against what you (and the player) expect the way physics to work.
Running forward and then jumping would cause you to normally jump forward, right? Mix it up and make them fly off at some random angle at some random velocity!
It doesn't matter how exactly your physics are, they just have to not make "intuitive" sense. Something that would never happen in the real world.
Competition #3: Wilderness Survival - June 27th to August 1st
http://board.moosader.com/viewforum.php?f=26
Make a game about surviving in the wilderness.
Setting doesn't really matter, as long as it can be classified as some sort of "wilderness" (ala, not inhabited area)... Jungles, deserts, alien planets...
So, lemme know what you guys think. And even if you don't have time to compete, it's still pretty fun to keep up with the development of the games, and getting hyped about 'em. :D

Unintuitive physics sounds like a blast, I always spend so much time making my physics as realistic as possible, it would be fun to change it up for once.

Does pressing buttons but the character does not move at all a unintuitive physics entry?
