So, I finally came up with an idea for the contest!  :w00t:

WalTourney:

Storyline:
You are the lowly :walrii: and you must advance through the annual WalTourney to get the prize money that is needed to keep your forum alive. As you go, you get some amounts of money from the battles, but you need that money to train and get better skills to be able to be the WalTourney Champion.

Gameplay:
The game is essentially a bunch of battles randomized in a tournament style. The battles will be something like an RPG's battles, turn based. As you go along, you get new :walrii: skins as you reach certain training levels. Once you become the champion (it may take a few years) money will rain down upon you and you will get to choose which calc site you would like to give your money to. There will also be an "Other" option. (Would this be ok? I'm not sure, it might cause some problems)

Technical Stuff:
Will be written in xLIBC/Celtic/BASIC for the TI 84+ CSE
Screenshots to come!

Any Suggestions?

Interesting idea. I am curious about what you'll come up with. Will you be able to move around or will it be mainly arena-based?

Just arena based. I might put some minigames in as easter eggs, but we'll see.

Great idea, suggestion: make lots of powers :)

Connect it to calcnet and make a poll out of the finish :P

Well, it looks like I won't be able to complete this idea, unless I get a sprite sheet figured out. To bad the Walruses aren't 16x16 <.<
I'm looking around for another idea, though.\!

Well, it looks like I'm not participating in this contest. WalTourney would just take to much time, and I haven't come up with a better idea. If I do, though, I'll try to through it together before the deadline.

Maybe you could do a smaller game or something still based on fighting, but simpler? It could even be something like whack a mole, a memory game, a space shooter, etc

idk, I have this one idea... Like you are at a carnival, and you have to throw a baseball into a hat, and each baseball you get, you get money, and with your money you could buy new characters (walruses, of course) and then save money to buy new throwing items and upgrades for those items and such. Then theres endgame when you through a nuke :P

That would be cool actually. Maybe you could play as Walrii (not necessarily see it when throwing balls) and when getting new characters, you could use them and they would have slightly different attributes (eg throwing speed, accuracy, etc)

There we go! And to throw, you actually spit them :D

Time to write up the entire game in the op and start coding!

Will it be for calcs or in Ruby?

Probably calcs, I don't really have moving sprites around set up in ruby.
