Some of you might have seen my games that are completely made with just backgrounds. Well, now I want to see what the scratch community can do with just the background. There will be a gallery created for this contest. Anyone can enter, but remember, only backgrounds.
Things that the project should include:
-Game (duh)
-menu (optional, but would help)
-credits (if any are do to someone)
Things that should not be the game:
-blender animations (at least, somewhat. I don't want the project to be just an animation that plays through)
-any other type of animation program
Post a comment containing a link to your project here, or in the gallery. Winners will be announced January 21st. Entry time will end on January 15th. Thank you and scratch on!

(if you want some ideas: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/AtomicBawm3/781793, and http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/AtomicBawm3/783912).

yep.

I made a game with absolutely no sprites (before I heard about this.) It's a simple game where you avoid a growing yellow square with the mouse pointer. I know its really simple, and you can just go outside the screen to win, but I'd like to enter it. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/XplodingEggs/811727

also your gallery wont allow me to summit my prject sad

AtomicBawm3 · 2009-12-26 13:20:00

Ok so doogle asked me what the grading will be on. Well, it mainly depends on the content, such as:
if there's music, does it go well with the game
if there's movement allowed, is it satisfactory (with in reason duh)
if there's a menu, is a help option included or at least explaination
also " (above)" is it designed well, maybe having some animation or reoccuring style.
That's about all I can think of at the moment, but if anyone else enters a project that doesn't have any of the above, but still is good, I might add a few grading points. Scratch on!

doogle26 · 2009-12-27 05:22:23

i have updated my project- not breaking any rules am i?

AtomicBawm3 · 2009-12-27 09:06:45

AtomicBawm3 · 2009-12-30 11:33:48

It's really girly, but it's like a preschool kid game XD

Wolfie1996 · 2009-12-31 18:30:44

Here's one I made: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Wolfie1996/825603 It's called MAZE, and I'm pretty impressed with it, as it only took half an hour to make smile

AtomicBawm3 · 2009-12-31 20:08:44

Less than 5 hours...

Wolfie1996 · 2010-01-01 08:06:18

I know that this is a little late, but I made the inmprovements to MAZE that you suggested (i.e., adding dead ends) and I came up with MAZE 2 . I know that it's too late for the contest, but I wanted you to see the improved version. Hope that's OK big_smile

scratch_yoshi · 2010-01-03 15:56:49

Darn! I made a project without any sprites and it's too late now!
