Apparently, hoplings is becoming a part of this big platformer war on the forums. Why? Couldn’t tell ya. I’m just as confused as last time my game was a part of something bigger. Should I just roll with it and get my game out there before they do, or should I try and get myself out of this thing so I can work on my project on my own time?

I know what you’re talking about, and surprisingly… I ABSOLUTELY HATE IT. I usually love competition in all forms, but this time seems a bit different, a bit… excessive. I’ve never gone against the idea of competition until now. And… I don’t think that’s a good thing either. Competition drives me INSANE. Like, I literally go nuts. If you saw me now, and then saw me during a competition (no matter how small it was), you wouldn’t believe I’m the same person. But… for some reason I still like it… but why…

What on Earth did I just say? Competition is THE BEST!

competition drives people to do better than the other when making video games ending up making your game a more successful venture in the long run. simply trying to 1up somebody on making your game more fun than the other makes it so the players get a better experience playing your game.

If you feel it’s best, try and get yourself out of there! The forums are understanding and will definitely let you go.

@TheConeGuy @goldtopaz @Brainstorm_Studios And me @TheGreenArtist are making our platformer games and we are trying to see who can make the best platformer. (At Least @goldtopaz is… and me.)
