Is this “cheating” on the theme?
It is a Big Rig after all, the giants of hauling :).

anonymous_user_c28ad15b · October 10, 2015, 5:12pm

? Got anything to say on this?

zeOrb · October 10, 2015, 5:26pm

It’s not about any trademark. It’s about trademark you don’t have a right to use ie Disney, Star wars and etc.

anonymous_user_c28ad15b · October 10, 2015, 5:48pm

Thanks for the clarification. So we can use our own logos, etc. Perfect!

those magic sword songs are pretty cool, not sure how they sound when you just played 180 games with the same song tho

owninator · October 11, 2015, 8:04am

lets all take the 1st 10sec of in the face of evil, put it too looping and no option too turn it off

literal

I’m taking the theme in the most literal sense. In my entry you control a BaguetteMech that shoots chickens. You can articulate the arms, aim the chicken gun and move the mech whilst standing on its shoulders… Weekend is over, I won’t really have much more time to iterate on the mechanics. Just the baguette bat to implement.

Can we use royalty free music from other people(creators that are making free music for others to download) and we just leave the credit to the creator in the game?
(I’m full of questions )

Ivey · October 11, 2015, 7:24pm

yup

michaeleeli · October 11, 2015, 7:32pm

Seems =)!

When it sais “Did you make all your assets”, to what extent does that mean? For example if we used the built-in skysphere, does it count as using another asset? Or the starter content materials? (Even if 99% of the others are our own made assets)

Ogniok · October 11, 2015, 8:35pm

Can we show UE4 logo at the beginning?
