Epic Battle Fantasy 4 - Foe Competition

Posted by matt-likes-swords - January 2nd, 2011


Epic Battle Fantasy 4 is still ages away, but I thought that I'd announce this now to give everyone plenty of time.

When developing Epic Battle Fantasy 3, I asked fans to send in drawings of foes which they wanted to see in the game. Quite a few eventually made it in, here's some of the winners:

Gunslinger
Clays
Fire Elemental

So basically I'm going to do the same thing again.
The franchise seems to have gotten a lot more attention since the last competition, so this should be even more interesting.

Requirements:

Drawings must be your own work.

Drawings must be original, for example, not recolored Sonic or Pokemon.

I don't mind if it's drawn traditionally or digitally.
I'll need at least one colored picture though.

It's gotta be RPG-ish. Whatever that means.

They must be work-safe. It can't be a giant penis. Uh..

It must not be human.
Preferably not very human-like at all.
Mainly because of....

They must be easy to motion tween.
This means they will be animated by just moving parts around and not redrawing anything.
So they shouldn't have too many movable parts. (Humans and spiders etc would require lots of parts).
Hell if it only has one moving part (for example, it's a rock), I won't complain.
Of course, if your foe is good enough to become a boss, I'll put in more effort.

Think of some attacks and properties for them.
Not really essential because I'll probably change a lot of them to fit the game.

Possibly think of several varieties so I can recycle the animations for several foes. For example an ice version and a fire version.

They should be different from existing foe types.
For example: No more turtles, or slimes etc.
Unless you want it to be a re-skin of an older foe, which is okay, but it'll have to be pretty much exactly the same shape.
In fact doing a re-skin of an existing foe would probably increase your chances of winning since it's less effort for me to implement.

Submission:

Please post your drawing on DeviantArt or on the game's FaceBook page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Epic-Ba ttle-Fantasy-3/121491377896263), otherwise it will be hard for me to keep track of them.

Submissions from the previous competition will also be considered again.

You can send in as many foes as you want.

Prizes:

Millions of people will see your foe.
You'll get a brief mention in the game's art gallery, and probably have your original drawing included as well, if there's enough space.

Deadline:

Competition will end after at least 4 months. Probably much longer.
Winners probably won't start being picked any earlier than that.

Picture unrelated.

Comments

I can't draw for shit, but I'm gonna enter anyway for laughs.

On their forums would probably do.

I guess either in General Gaming or Collaborations sections. Personally I'd suggest General Gaming. It has a much large audience and would get you a huge amount of attention.

I thought the point was to come up with a monster >.>

wait so i just submit it on dA on my account and u will somehow find it even though u have no idea who i am?

Damn, well it was worth a shot lol. Might as well try my hand at drawing up a monster or two i suppose, though it'll probably look like something out of a childs crayon book compared to some of these other guys :3

are you working on the 4th already...this is never end... i wonder who will be the next villain and what new skills does have this new party member, that one with green

I submitted mine to the fb page.

i cant wait for that game to come out it looks prety cool

Question!
I'm chock-full of ideas, I'm a very thoughtful person, but...I can't draw to save my life. I know that you're probably going to make me draw for the competition, but since it's not likely that you'll exactly be ripping the enemy right out of anyone's drawing for the game...could I just supply ideas?

Also, the new character is shaping up rather well. They already look so natural standing with everyone else.

well I can't stop you

I'm looking forward to #4. Your work is awesome.

My god so thats the new person for bows eh? She is smugly >:3

Can I Sponsor EBF 4 with TNZ ?

tnz?

<a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/phenom9/ebf4-foe-competition-entry">http://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/ph enom9/ebf4-foe-competition-entry</a>

This is Newgrounds. We have an Art Portal you know? I refuse to create an account on Facebook or DeviantArt but I hope my foe can still enter. Anyway it doesn't matter, you just look at it and it's an instant decision. Good or awful.

yeah but you can't really organize groups of images in any useful way here.
And I can't even favourite your picture cause you've not been scouted. D:

HOLY SHIT EBF 4 WHOOOOOO!
I LOVE YOU!

OK I left a comment on your DA newspost with the link. I hope that's okay. But the account that matters is on Newgrounds.

TNZ Means The Negative Zone

So...... I just post it it on DA and send a link to enter?
Because I got four rather interesting creatures I banged up during school today.

pretty much
