Contests 4K Game Competition - 2014
#1

Hi,

since I can upload only 5 games this year. I have to choose wisely.

I started an “old Game”-InCeption series (a game in a game). But I think I should only upload one "in"ception game. Please help me to choose the best game. Thanks =)

So here are the nominees:

  1. PongCeption

A pong game in a pong game. I use the great Bit.Trip Beat layout.

  1. BreakCeption

A breakout game in a breakout game.

  1. TicCeption

A tictactoe game in a tictactoe game. At the moment a computer ai is missing. I will add it the next days but you can play against another human.

  1. Sn4keCeption

It is a snake game in a snake game. At the moment it isn’t ready but the gameplay will be. Eat like in other snake game some fruits and you will be longer. But every 4 new part you play the snake game in that part of the body at the same time. It is like a new level added with new obstacles. And if you collide with the great snake or in on part with the wall you will lose a life.

The TicCeption makes the most sense right now.
The others… seem a little impossible or strange.

#3

Ticception is a work of genius.
Original idea, or a clone of someone else’s invention?

Pongception is hard, breakception is insane, but I don’t feel either adds anything to their respective vanilla games.

#4

I updated the rule to 10. I think 5 was a bit harsh.

#5

TicCeption is awesome!

(I assume the rule is that you have to win a small board to get a mark on a big board)

You coukd even add more difficulty by adding more depth to the chain, while still keeping it playable.

#6

Chessception please!

#7

Ten points for sheer craziness!

But why must the nested game be an instance of the outer game? Why not snakes inside naughts and crosses?

#8

I was playing the BrickCeption for almost 45 minutes, lol.

#9

I don’t know whether Apo came up with it independently, but I saw it described several months ago at http://mathwithbaddrawings.com/2013/06/16/ultimate-tic-tac-toe/
