Chicago, Illinois – March 23rd, 2007 -- Visual FX company DiscreetFX LLC Inc., offers $1000 to the developer or team that can create a three level demo of a platform game starring Hottie, in the classic gaming style of Arabian Nights, Shadow of the Beast, Nicky Boom, Zool, etc.
"I have noticed game development for Amiga has seemed to stagnant and want to help change that, stated DiscreetFX's CEO. So begins a fun contest to sharpen your Amiga game creation coding skills. The three level demo you create will need to run on classic Amiga's and WinUAE/E-UAE/PSPUAE. We don't care so much if it is AGA or Amiga 500 specific. We care more of the quality and polish that will go into the demo. The game will need to star "Hottie", DiscreetFX's leading virtual character. Links to her image can be found here.

Runner up prizes will also be offered and the winner will get a chance to complete the game and release it on Amiga OS 4.0, MorphOS, AROS, and other gaming systems. More information will be available on the following site in the next week.

Well now that there is an update to Hollywood, wouldnt this be a great tool to create a small platformer.
-
Is Hollywood actually any good for making fast-paced arcade games, or is it only really suitable for puzzle-type games?

Hollywood is only suitable for making 24-bit video and, as such, it is typically too slow on the classic Amigas. It works great on PowerPC systems running MorphOS or AmigaOS 4 or Pentiums running AROS. Also, it includes cross-compilers with any version of Hollywood that you buy so you can create fast games for any of those platforms even if you only have one of them. (I'd recommend having testers anyway, however.)

Looks like DiscreetFX's mascot Hottie was taken directly from a Tex Avery cartoon. Can a character in high heels be a good hero in a platformer? :lol:

Someone tell me what Hollywood is.

@weirdami
Notice the announcement right before this one?

Hollywood (http://www.airsoftsoftwair.de/en/prod_hollywood.html) is a multimedia authoring package with an optional GUI-based syntax-highlighting editor called Hollywood Designer (http://www.airsoftsoftwair.de/en/prod_designer.html) which adds PowerPoint-like functionality to it. Unlike PowerPoint, Hollywood presentations and games can be compiled to all available machine languages so it will run without an external player.
