Fretta Contest Update

Garry Newman

– December 24, 2009

The Fretta Contest has been going on for about a month now. Well, roughly.

Right now there are about 4 gamemodes that are standing out. But that might be because there are only about 4 that are more than just concept. Start programming guys, you won’t win anything for having great ideas!

Anyway, since we’re getting into the office later than expected I was considering extending the contest a month to give us enough time to evaluate all of the entries properly (We’re planning on playing them on a LAN in the office).

That means it would end on the 1st of March. Does that totally suck? Or would that be fine by you guys?

Oh and Merry Christmas!

It sucks, then the developers are gonna procrastinate more than they already are… which I don’t blame them for, but it’s just slowing down time. I don’t see why you’d make it a 3 or 4 month contest (whichever)

I’ve been trying to program mine, I just prefer going with a blank gamemode. Fretta has too much for me, but never-the-less I will try to finish it.

I’d really like to get an extension, the only thing that was holding me back was the lack of time, and how much work there was needing to be put into it.

An extension would be kickin rad. I’ll be able to put up a thread and release a playable version by the end of the month, so two months of playtesting and polishing will make something that looks niiice

Yea, extend the contest, then the developers have more time to perfect their gamemodes which is better for GMod in whole.

Yeah, extent it by a month. I can probably use the time, since school exams are coming.

That sounds good. I’ve been busy this month with the holidays and haven’t had a chance to get much coding done.

I think the documentation on the wiki needs to be updated a little bit more. It is hard to get started without it.

I wouldn’t mind either way. An extension would stretch out the contest even more, but it would give us time to put together a second entry.

Maybe make a vote in the contest forums?

I agree with this, I’m sure I’m not the only one planning on a second entry, and an extension will result in higher quality gamemodes.
