PVB CODING COMPETITION 2013 Rules
(Updated Sept 1 – Prize)
Rules:
– Deadline for entries is January 1, 2014 0:00 GMT+1.
– Any type of program running on the Virtual Boy or a Virtual Boy emulator is allowed, be it a game, demo, application, emulator, port or anything else.
– Also allowed are supplemental tools for VB development.
– Entries have to be open source, so make sure to include source code in your release.
– Multiple entries are allowed, but will be rated individually (means you can’t collect votes through multiple projects). This means on one hand, that your project will compete with each other, on the other hand that, if they’re all good, you’ll maximize your chance of winning with one of the projects.
– Projects, which already competed in any previous PVB coding competition, are not allowed to take part.
– After the deadline, a community vote will find the winner. The vote will be secret, every user registered before September 1, 2013 can vote. Sorry to everybody who is excluded by this, but it is a precautionary measure so that nobody can vote using fake accounts. Of course, users registered after September 1, 2013 can take part in the competition and send in a project. In that case, this user will also be able to vote.
Prize:
A limited run of 20 complete-in-box copies of the winner’s project will be produced and send to them.
Project Submission:
– Open a thread in the Coding Competition forum for your project and attach it to the post.
– As the topic title, please use the name of your project plus the prefix “[ENTRY]”, so entries can better be seen (for example “[ENTRY] Pacman”).
– You can post as many versions as you want and gather feedback from the community.
