Impressive: the contest entries are out

Finally, here are the final rankings and downloads of the

SEGA Saturn Coding Contest (C4 - 2006)

http://www.rockin-b.de/c4/2006/screenshots.jpg

The winners are:

1. Bounty Getters (proof of concept) by Zaksund
2. Super Mario Clone ported by VBT

Other entries are:

• 3d landscape flying demo by Rockin'-B
• 3d car demo written in Game Basic by VBT
• 2d graphic demo by Charles MacDonalds

To cite a judge(Tassian):
"Let me say this first: it was a real treat to see how good all the entries were and how well the really important aspects of videogames were covered: a fun gameplay, flashy 3D graphics, cool 2D graphics, nice sound and long term fun."

Don't miss playing the entries yourself, either on a real SEGA Saturn (swap-trick or modchip) or on an emulator like SSF, yabause and the like.

Awesome! Congrats to Zaksund, vbt, and Vreuzon! I just hope I would be able to participate in C4 2007. ;)

cant wait, hope it works for SSF :thumbup:

It should work, at least it runs on giri, and almost everything run on Yabause.

Had a spot of bother getting some parts on the multigame image to work right in SSF yesterday, I'll try the individual ones instead, should work better

Very impressive indeed :)

These are some crystal clear screenshots.

I've been working a bit (okay: a lot) on my entry lately and I could remove some bugs which make it look much better now.

Oh, I've noticed that I forgot to add the Save Game Manager to the disc, like I did for the C4 2005 CD.

There exists also a second version of Charles MacDonalds' entry which uses high resolution VGA output (said to be viewable with standard RGB cables). I don't know any other Saturn application at all, which uses that display mode.

These three points make me think if I will release an updated version of the C4 2006 CD, improved by these 3 updates.

That would be great. :)
