Magfest 9 - NES panel with VIDEOS

I've just copied and pasted this from another forum:

Well, I was selected to do the panel. I'll be up there solo, since no one is attending that's currently doing a game.

Anyway, I was planning to of course talk about my stuff, how I began simple and into more complex games. I was also thinking of talking about some other folks' projects briefly to just showcase them, so the audience could see what's out there. I'd be running all this from my laptop via ROMs.

I'm putting this message out there as I will only show someone's game if said person wants this done. So if you have anything you want me to say, you'll need to let me know.

How about showing off some of RetroUSB's stuff so people can get into the new era of NES gaming and maybe get ome new people into the community possibly?


And thats nice to show off some other people work. Thanks for considering that. I'm sure some people will love to see their stuff demo'd.

I think that if the rom is available on the web, I don't see why you would need to ask permission to show it since it's already public anyway.

But most project are unfinished so maybe some people may do mind after all. Me what I did is nothing special and since it was a proof of concept, I don't know if I will ever finish it someday. You can show it, I don't mind but it doesn't do much ;)

Hmm... it's soon. My game is close to ready to be showcased, but not close enough to be ready for this, sadly.

Thanks for offering, though. Would have to be next time for me, if there is a next time :(

In response to this... yeah I do have a game rom released in the wild, but I'd rather it not be shown at something like this even if it can already be played by anyone. It's not animated, has no sound/music, most didn't like the controls, and it's a clone. It is always good to ask, for sure.

My game will be revealed to the public by then (I really hope so). You can demo it. If you want, I'll do a write-up on some of my design decisions and the thought process that went into how I did some of the graphics effects (ok, they are cheesy) that I did.

You can show off the beta version of GemVenture (http://www.pdroms.de/files/2172/download/).

This is coming up in 12 days. Anything people want to be said/shown will need to be presented to me. I don't know how much I can actually showcase as I really don't know how the full panel will go. At SGC, I mainly talked about my game and took questions, but that was just my game.

I can't answer a lot of questions on behalf of others' projects either, but merely show them.

So... if you want anything to potentially be shown, you need to mention it. 8)

You should talk to bigjt_2. He is going to be there with his Assimilate demo anyway. I'm sure he wouldn't mind a bit of extra publicity.

Well, I dont have anything to showcase, but i'll be there to watch the panel. Met you at MAGFest last year. Are you going to be selling any copies of Battle Kid there this year?

@JargonM: I think tokumaru thinks your username resembles that of someone who used to make unconstructive posts to this board years ago.

Oh. O_o Definitely just a coincidence.
