Thought I'd pass along some info I heard recently, as I know that some of you in the beloved SVGLCorps are lovely, lovely indie designers.
There's a contest on at AddictingGames to promote an action flick called "Shoot 'Em Up," hitting theaters Sept. 7th (I haven't heard about it, have you?) and they want a game to go with it:
Show us your best take on Shoot ‘Em Up. Is it a driving game? A first-person shooter? A nanny simulator? You tell us. We're looking for great gameplay that embodies the spirit of the movie.
Need more incentive? How about cash? We're giving away $9,500 in prize money, and finalists get promoted on the AddictingGames site.
You guys got somethin' you wanna submit? Check it out, then! I can barely write HTML, let alone code, and have no skill in game design nor am I ever likely to cultivate any. However, I like to think that SVGL's "best take on Shoot 'Em Up" would be a dating sim populated by dubiously-aged Japanese student athletes and Harajuku girls. Use your imagination.
