Then again nothing would prove your 1337 coding skillz better then being in 1st, 2nd and 3rd all at once.

Is there a limit to the number of entries in this competition? I've read through the rules twice, but I may have missed it.

There's no limit to the amount of entries, but it would probably be a better ploy to combine both your ideas into one if they go together, otherwise you will disadvantage yourself as Raizor said.. Unless you don't mind that and you're just having a blast making them.

Just saw this video - might be another source of inspiration:

That's a really cool video Benny, I would love to see something like that. No-one codes a particle engine like Mother Nature

Shockwave · « **Reply #23 on:** November 06, 2011 »

Yeah, starlings are awesome

Maybe I should have chosen them.. I'm battling with the Northern Lights at the moment and losing

trve!!!

@Shocky:
Damn, aurora .. that would be indeed a great FX. One of my favourite natural phenomena. More inspiration. To be honest, I do not know a single demo which shows an aurora effect. So this might be a very interesting challenge to take. I wish you luck, mate!

I did consider attempting the Northern Lights, but decided it would be far too difficult

Hehehe

I wish you the best of luck, I'm sure you'll pull something out of the bag, which I'm very much looking forward to seeing.

I can assure you that I'm tackling it in a very unscientific way!

It will suck

I've coded a new fx! But I have no idea what to do with it!

Whatever it is, there's likely to be 4 or 5 phenomena which do something similar

Hmm,. I have just started yesterday, I need more time for the idea I have to not look boring, my cat wants to play with me, my brother organizes lan gaming party in 1 hour, hmm.. what could I do?

Shockwave · « **Reply #30 on:** November 12, 2011 »

You need to clone yourself mate.

Nice to see you Optimus, it's been a while

benny! · « **Reply #31 on:** November 12, 2011 »

Hey Optimus, that's a hard decision ... would be cool to see a new production from you - but having some fun on a LAN-party is also a good alternative ;-)
Anyway, cool to see you back online.
Best,
benny!

Optimus · « **Reply #32 on:** November 12, 2011 »

Hoy, I am almost having something even if it sucks. If the guest are more late or in between the lan gamings, maybe I'll push it, maybe not.

Shockwave · « **Reply #33 on:** November 13, 2011 »

Seems like you succeeded

Ok, voting will be up this evening at about 6pm!

Great entries this time! Thanks to everyone who has entered.

zawran · « **Reply #34 on:** November 13, 2011 »

I wanted to try and get something done for this challenge, but unfortunately I just haven't been able to find the time and energy for it. Perhaps next time. Great to see that a good bunch of entries made it after all.

There will be another comp before too long

Hotshot · « **Reply #36 on:** November 13, 2011 »

I thought it was great to enter but I got to remember to loop the music ...not stop way half the demo LOL

Just saw this video on Vimeo (was added yesterday). Think it somehow fits to the term Phenomena:
