Sumea Pixel Town!!!!

  • In my first and previous post in this game dev log entry, I had written that I wanted to do a game which was a collection of simple retro games. Unity released a new major release (2019.3) while I was putting the initial project together, and I…

  • Well, I'm making a game . I'm spending the next few weeks on making a small game to showcase the gamedev log feature on tsumea where any member can create a game entry and other members can post journal posts with art, music or just development…

  • Just a test #2. Still working on the new section.

  • So, I got a Commodore 64 when I was in the 4th grade. It came bundled with a Rolf Harris picture building program on casette tape which never loaded properly but from what I could tell by its box cover, you could build pictures from a selection…

  • Yes, the site looks very different and I've had to prematurely switch to this new theme that I'm working on for a few reasons, the main one is that changing certain aspects of the site to fit the new theme will affect how the old one looks for…

  • (this is just a test, please ignore this entry)

    Here is some of my old work.. the first pic is of a 3d model of a human head I was working on about 2 years ago in 3dsmax, using nurbs. If I had to do it again, I wouldn't model a head with…

Ok, this is the new Draw Club activity, and it's a simple one. It shouldn't take you much time to do at all! It's the Sumea Pixel Town activity!!

http://www.sumea.com.au/sumeatown.asp
To participate, you first have to reserve your plot of land. Post in here which number you want. Some land is bigger than others, so if you don't intend to spend too much time on pixelling some art, choose the smaller ones. Once you reserve your land, take a snapshot of the webpage, chuck it in photoshop, and do your pixel-fu. When you're done, post a gif of only your area in this forum, and I'll grab it and add it to the page.
Everyone's welcome to participate (yes, even you coders!), and go nuts with ideas!! (it doesn't necessarily have to be of a house).

(btw, I'll be redesigning the logo/page a bit later.. just wanted to get the map up atm [:)])

Bring on the hall-'o-shame!! Come on, they deserve it!

Submitted by MoonUnit on Fri, 11/06/04 - 1:35 AM Permalink

complete with email addys!! hate mail galore!!! :P ;)

Submitted by tbag on Fri, 11/06/04 - 7:01 AM Permalink

I've finished mine, its quick but i think it will do for now until i have time to fix it up more.

Mines rather controversial too [:p].

I got no webspace so im sending it straight to Souri, i hope its not to shite, i whipped it up in like 5 or so minutes.

The reason it has taken so long is because 1) I forgot about it, 2) I just wrote up a 10 page business assignment and an 8 page autobiography etc... 3) Im lazy.

Anyway lets see if it gets put up...

Hey are there any slots left (maybe if someone doesn't take their lot up?) wouldn't mind a bit of ether to call home.

If so, what's available?! :)

Submitted by Discmage on Sat, 12/06/04 - 6:25 AM Permalink

#25 or #31 would be cool if I could have one of those...can I? Can I?? Be your best friend!

Submitted by souri on Sat, 12/06/04 - 8:47 AM Permalink

Those spots are still reserved by other people. If they don't have their plots done in two weeks, the plots will be freed up and will be open for reservations!

Submitted by ka0 on Sun, 13/06/04 - 8:36 AM Permalink

can i have any free spots?? if there are any? or if any become available..

Yay! Mine is up, its a quick job and i realise the nVidia building is smaller then the ATI building but atleast it is something.

woah at light red BG on image!

Submitted by palantir on Tue, 15/06/04 - 11:36 PM Permalink

Yeah man, that red ground colour is kinda ugly [:P] Maybe you should make it concrete colour or something? Or at least just leave it the default grass green colour.

And nVidia is better[;)]

Yesssss! I wanna plot will trade for plot or something similar.. also if there is possibility of getting two.. I know someone who'll take it

Submitted by souri on Wed, 16/06/04 - 9:51 AM Permalink

Wait till mid next week when all the empty plots are up for grabs.

That's excellant. Thanks [:)]

Submitted by palantir on Fri, 18/06/04 - 11:28 PM Permalink

Cool, that looks great napes [:)]

When the plots go up for grabs, will it be possible to get one if we already have a plot? Or is it only for new pixel town residents?

And I was thinking, it could be a good idea to put a time limit on a reserved plot. So if you reserve one, you only get 24 hours or something to post your creation. This might help motivate people.

But those people with reserved plots still have time; maybe sumea pixel town will be fill by next week. [:)] (Here?s hoping)

Hey, nice one Adamant [:)]. I've just moved you in...

Submitted by souri on Wed, 23/06/04 - 4:55 PM Permalink

Nice work!
Ok, the deadline is tonight for the rest of you. As soon as it hits midnight, the empty plots are free for the taking.

btw, this little activity started in late January, which means it's 6 months old and we're still not done yet!!
