Proelium 10K Download Livestream Event

Mon, 26 Dec 2011 05:07:56 +0000

Hey, BYONDcast hasn't had an event in a while and I figured it was time for one. I don't think Akto will be able to attend, Bravo1 might be able to. So, if you'd like to be a commentator, just tell me and add me on Skype. (Look on the left bars.)

So yeah, congrats Silk Games! 10,000 downloads on Proelium, that's really awesome! So I propose we celebrate with a little event.

I'll probably have it in the next few days, so look forward to that! Sorry, no prizes this time as I can't be bothered to make a large setup and sign-up for it.

Happy Holidays everyone, and I hope this event turns out just as well as when we played the game last time! (And hopefully I won't play as bad as last time too. :P)

BYOND Tournament: Omnipotence: Results

Tue, 01 Nov 2011 03:49:36 +0000

At the dawn of each civilization, the universe sends a god to teach and command the new species. Upon the creation of the plant Earth, it so happened that eleven gods were accidentally sent to guide a new race, humans. Never before had any planet witnessed the events that would ensue.

Many civilizations suffered from starvation, others fell to the hands of another, and in the end, only one god remained.

BYONDcast Video Forge Program

Thu, 13 Oct 2011 12:18:15 +0000

Hello everyone, we're coming to you today to announce a little project/program that I've been thinking about for quite a long time after seeing some complaints and queries on the community blogs.
People want to learn how to become popular on BYOND, and you don't need to wonder why if you look around at BYOND. Everything's constantly changing. Games are becoming more and more professional looking. The language and libraries are becoming stronger and easier to use.

But what are you, the developer, supposed to do once you've completed your large project and claim to fame? You've got to get your name out into the community!

But how would you go about doing that, you ask me. There are tons of ways to get this done, and this is only but another option which can be very helpful for beginning developers who haven't created a name for themselves yet. You can use the BYONDcast Video Forge to get your name out there to an already established community.

It's really simple to do, you simply contact me either through email, msn, skype, or byond pager and tell me you're interested in being a part of the Video Forge program. You can do pretty much whatever you want as long as it pertains to BYOND in some way. Tutorials, gameplays, reviews, casual chat, showing off your game, livestreams, contests, tournaments, pretty much anything you'd like to post!

After you gain my trust (which is pretty easy as long as I haven't had problems with you in the past) you'll be able to submit content without a BYONDcaster's approval. And then you're basically a BYONDcaster and you put your name on every article, video or event that you create! Easy popularity!

There are only a few things that are needed when applying for the Video Forge program listed below. If you're unsure about any of them, feel free to ask in the comment section below.
* Does not apply to article writers/arranging events.

#1: You need a microphone of average quality.*
#2: You need audio/video recording software.*
#3: You need to be able to type in complete sentences with proper punctuation.
#4: I don't expect a ton out of your video quality, as long as your audio quality is good and people can tell what's going on in the video without difficulty I won't deny you.*
#5: You must have some form of contact that you can provide me with. Skype or MSN is preferred.
#6: If you decide to contribute content on a schedule, try to continue with that schedule.
#7: Despite being a fairly open and freely-run blog, we do have standards.

Feel free to split off from the BYONDcast Video Forge at any time, transfer your content to your own blog and begin building your own separate community as the BYONDcast did from BYOND Journalism. We're just glad that you've been recognized for your hard work! (:

Good luck, and happy community-building!

BYONDcast Topic Hunt #2

Sun, 09 Oct 2011 21:53:06 +0000

The BYONDcast Episode 4 will be recorded tonight, and we at the BYONDcast are looking for a few topics that may have slipped from our almost-all-seeing eyesight.
This is where you come in, I want anything interesting that's buzzing around in the BYOND world to be reported here so that it may be investigated and perhaps featured on this upcoming BYONDcast.

This is a great opportunity to bring attention to something you believe in, an upcoming game, a cool library or developer blog post, anything as long as it relates to BYOND!
So have at it, you've got about two or so hours before the cast begins at which point this topic will be closed off.

IMPORTANT: Remember to provide links to any related content to what you're reporting on!!!

Thanks a ton to all you BYONDlings. -nay for new font if you like it, because I think it looks so much more clean. (:

Love you all, and happy topic-hunting!

State of BYONDcast 3

Wed, 05 Oct 2011 02:35:29 +0000

No video for this State of the BYONDcast. Sorry. ):
Yes, we are still alive. Akto, Bravo1, and I just have been busy lately, especially last weekend.
Akto has been working on a lot of projects and getting ready for an early college mid-terms.
Bravo1 hasn't sent me any messages lately, so I assume he's busy with his life.
And finally I have been trying to get everything back in order and ready to finish up the mid-term for this quarter.

Sorry about having no real content this weekend or last weekend (which was consumed by Game in a Day), we'll try to get some good content for this upcoming weekend. (:

Thanks a ton, stay strong BYONDlings. -nay forever.

Swarm - Akto vs Chickenlegs90 - Game 1

Wed, 28 Sep 2011 03:49:22 +0000

Just a quick commentary. I do mess up the names because I'm silly. Akto is always red, Chickenlegs is always blue.
This was a REALLY epic game. Look at the timings at the end. (:

Hope this gets some hype about a possible tournament for this game for LARGE CASH PRIZES!!! Look forward to a post about that and the failing PG contest.
