Unfortunate my art skills are no good and I have a very low knowledge of AS Syntax (I understand AS though, just can't write it)

I doubt anyone would be willing to split all prize money with me if I simply gave them a concept and they did all the work

Yep, pretty unlikely, good luck getting some skillz.

I know we're not allowed to use _root to store/locate variables and MC's, but are we allowed to access/change global properties like _root._quality and _root._xmouse?

Nope, I PMed you about it. Here's an example of why:

In WW, there's a chat system that scrunches down the main world view kinda like when scores run on espn, or credits squash the screen on some tv shows, so if you used _root._xmouse everything would be jacked up, so you need to only refer to your own clip ie: "this" if you're on the main timeline for your game to function right.

Are we allowed to resubmit our game if we want to make some improvements and / or fix some bugs? How do we go about that, just update the game in our Newsgrounds entry, and email the new copy?

Yeah, I don't mind you making your game better, it's all about the kiddies having the best game possible right?

Ha ha, good luck!

Do we have to submit before the 10th, or can we submit on the 10th as well?

Also, are there still front page bonuses up for grabs?

Yeah, 12:00 am on the 11th is too late.

Yep, 4 of them.

just a reminder that the last day to submit your Wiggi World games is August 10th which is this friday! Good luck!

Thanks, BoMToons! I will be submitting an updated version of Bacteria Bash in the next couple of days with some added powerups and better HUD, hopefully it will round out the game a bit more and improve my chances in the contest!

Something very special is in the works from me.

Not sure what that word is, but I can't wait to see your game!

Yeah, my game is coming along fine and all, but I need to know if it's OK to change the quality settings or not. It is getting a bit laggy and I don't want a laggy game. And If it's not OK, then could ya help me and give me some advice through PM's to see what I could do to help prevent the Lag.

Thanks.

So what happens if we accidentally slip a wiggi massacre level into our games?

It'll either be edited out of the final fla (what's posted on wiggiworld) but mostly likely be disqualified.

Also, who does the Wiggiworld theme tune (the first one), just so I can put it in the credits.

You can change the quality in YOUR GAME ONLY but not the _root quality...remember that these games will be dynamically loaded into a master .swf, so you can't reference _root. ie: on the main timeline, type the following: this._quality="LOW";

We play all the games and we scrub them for "easter eggs" so I guarantee you'll hurt your chances at winning anything if you throw in anything stupid.

Just credit "Wiggi World." The author would want it that way ;)

FYI:

Here is a list of the games we've received so far, please let me know if yours is not on the list and you've emailed me the .fla (and any include files) I wasn't very organized at the beginning so please don't be mad if yours is missing ;P :

In no particular order:

-Wiggi Baker
-Wiggi Woods
-Adventures of PB Man
-Super Wiggi Ball
-Wiggi Fire Mission
-Wiggi Jump
-Bacteria Bash
-Bushy's Cleanup Crusade
-Wiggiminton
-The Minicade
-Wiggi Rescue
-Wiggi Food Fall
-Wiggi Game Show
-Wiggi Emergency 911
-Dirty Dishes
-Wiggi Maze
-Wiggi Fun Run
-Tidy that Wigwam
-Wiggi Fire Emergency
-Water!
-Wiggi Trash Picker Upper
-Wiggi Sky Sprint
-Fresh Fruit Flinger

Some, like "Wiggi Hero Math Race", and "Room Cleaning Adventure" are on NG, but haven't been sent to us yet. "Wiggi apple catch" seems like they don't actually want to be in the competition.

Others are still in dev and haven't been released yet (but I'm looking forward to them):
-Wiggi Mountain Rescue
-Veggi-Matic
-[Untitled]'s Day Out

I think I've got everyone accounted for so far, but I don't want anyone to slip through the cracks.

Sssshhh it's a secret. I WAS joking about the wiggi massacre btw :p Don't want you to get paranoid and frantically search through CC and mine's game for hours...

Also, can I ask, what kind of things will affect who wins? I.e are graphics more important than gameplay? Is filesize an issue? Is a varied soundtrack important?

I just finished and submitted my new game.

I've got my eye on you boy!

Everything will factor in a bit. We have a panel of gamers and kids who will rate them based on certain categories, so make it the best you can in all areas! Filesize won't be one of the judgement citeria, so don't worry about that one too much.
