Hi all!
A Parrises Squares foundry game would be awesome. I was going to make one but then I realized that other people might have a few ideas at making a better one (I'm still planning to make one but I hope mine won't be the best). Therefore, I'm sponsoring a foundry tournament: make a Parrises Squares game in the foundry.
Rules for foundry challenge entry:
Respond to this thread with your Parrises Squares foundry mission's title and author.
What would be helpful is when you have a p-squares mission that is still in progress, respond to this thread letting me know as I haven't determined when to have the deadline for submissions because I don't know the interest level or how long it will take for everyone to finish making their mission.
Rules for mission:
game must include multiplayer mode.
game must be federation factioned. (only one Klingon national played professionally. sorry kdf.)
game must be played on a ground map
game should be as close to accurately representing "Parisses Squares" based on what we know of it from the star trek TV shows and movies.
game may include a single player mode.
game may include combat and ways to get injured
.
Prizes:
Grand prize: 10 mil ec and regognition as the official Parrises Squares foundry game. (hopefully it gets spotlighted too)
Honorable mention and 1 mil ec, goes to any other good ones that rock or I like: (number tbd based on quality of the entries)
How the winner will be determined:
I will play all the submitted foundry missions and determine a winner.
I will take into consideration nominations posted on this thread and foundry ratings.
Include the "game may include" optionals above in your mission for bonus points.
Special circumstances: If I am the only one that makes a mission or all of them just stink, then... I will declare my mission the winner and my Santagorn will give out extra gifts at the winter event with the ec I saved.
Guidelines, tips, and suggestions:
Do some research on the web.
http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Parrises_squares is a good start.
Once missions have been made, I would suggest tagging the missions you play as 'multiplayer' and 'puzzle'.

Love this idea.
Don't forget to make the outfits

I am curious the difference on each mission as well as how the limitations of the foundry will impact the game play. This will be a good one. One I will have to ponder.:D
It still meets all the criteria but my version of the game is turning out to be a lot different than I think the game would have been on the show due to the fact that it's being made without a full fledged software development tool. It will be fun to see what tricks foundry authors use as we can't exactly just write our own code and control flow statements.
I moved my own parrises squares mission behind the other two foundry projects that I am currently working on so I probably won't finish and publish it for a while.
