Re: [FAF] - June 28, 2013 - Game Design Committee

The Main Event...Is the main event the period between autonomous and the end game? Or is the does the main event have something to do with the "Name of the Game"
I am one of those that think the challenge was just right this year. The climb was a huge engineering challenge and had big risk. (fall off the tower and see the results) Once you got it figured out many did not have time to put too much into a shooter. However the relative ease of finding disk throwing machines on Youtube made it possible for rookie teams to make something that could score and they could do well. The scoring between the two tasks were a good balance. A good disk shooter could out score a climber without to much problem. The GDC has a fine line to walk in making a game that challenges the veteran teams and is still obtainable for a rookie team with limited resources. Keep up the good work, GDC and Teams!
