Your first choice is approved!


I am in Destroyer Encounter.

Here's a rough draft of my song. it's a loop, but it sounds better without that little pause the newgrounds player takes to load.


Do you guys have any advice on how to make this better?

When you submit your song or a work-in-progress, please mention the group you're in for convenience. Kadepow11 is in "EverReverb - “Destroyer Encounter”"

Since there's fuller groups and you mentioned even-ing the workload, I'll make these choices:


1] Everratic - "Northpeaks Spy"

2] Stardew - "8-Bit Wandering"


[but what I'd really wanna do is the Pseudonatural sect]

@ZipZipper

Thanks for being thoughtful. At the end of the event, I'll take note of which challenges were most coveted and try to get more challenges like those for a potential second vgm challenge. I assigned you to Northpeaks Spy.


@Hyenaedon

Your first choice has been approved!


@erreverb


To whom it may concern:


The following is my final submission.


I hope you guys enjoy it! It loops better if you fully put it together with no gap between.

I want to be fully transparent about how I'm choosing between first and second choices, because some people have privately inquired about it.


First, my main goal with this system is to distribute the workload somewhat evenly between the challenge designers. I don't know what will happen at the end, but I would like to avoid a scenario in which some designers get 10-20 songs while others get much fewer. The balancing won't be perfect, and it could end up being unnecessary depending on turnout.


Second, EverReverb has two challenges, so I'm assigning people to his groups at a slower rate. LD-W said he's working on a second challenge, so that will also be the case with his groups.


Third, I believe the event is more attractive with more challenge options open, and having a higher turnout is good for the community because it can spur more activity.


If there's a second video game challenge event, I plan to make changes so that more people get their prime group.


On another note, three people have said they'll create new challenges. I don't have exact times as to when they'll be added.

For anyone who uploads an entry under category: "Psuedonatural / Outer Planes" (or the other challenge once I get the time to finalise it), feel free to DM me once it's uploaded and I'll add it to my to-do list to write out reviews for.

Here's my own interpretation of the challenge "Final Push" by LunacyEcho:


What doesn't kill you makes you gain EXP :)))

VGM is wide ranging, do you have restrictions on chipset? Are we using chiptunes, FM or am I able to use modern instruments? Track length? Multitrack limits? What effects are viable?


MY ALBUMS ON SPOTIFY


Yes peeps, I have albums out, go listen.

Not home now, but I’ll add you to Northpeaks Spy tonight.

Response to Newgrounds Video Game Music Challenge 2020-11-11 07:45:48


Ok :)

Response to Newgrounds Video Game Music Challenge 2020-11-11 08:44:24


I'm rusty with composing and with VGM being the only thing I make, this is the perfect excuse to get back on track so I hope I'll be able to make something for this.


1st choice - 8bit wandering

2nd choice - XLR hangar


Only question is, once (if) one of my choices gets approved, that means I gotta focus specifically on that one, right? with the two choices thing being just so if I don't get approved for one category I still might have the second one?

Response to Newgrounds Video Game Music Challenge 2020-11-11 10:08:48


I'll take a shot at it.


1st choice: Destroyer Encounter

2nd choice: Northpeaks Spy

I’ll assign you your first choice tonight. That is correct, your focus is only on one challenge. I hope the event helps you get back on track.
