Objects/birds of the competition

[RomainLaroche]

Hi,

I'd like to know the birds and objects that we are going to encounter during the competition.

Thanks,

Hi,

for the competition we will use all object types that occur in the first 21 poached eggs levels.
That is objects made of wood, glass, and stone in the typical shapes. Of course also the typical static objects such as slingshot, platforms and ground/mountains.
We will use the red, yellow and blue birds, and green pigs with and without helmets.

If enough participants request it, we could possibly also use white and black birds and TNT boxes. But even then, we would only use them in a very small percentage of levels. So if you want those, please let us know.

All this will be specified in the detailed competition rules which will be released in early May.

As I love massive destruction, I vote for black&white birds.

If I am not mistaken, current framework does not recognize platforms and mountains. Is this going to be changed in some new version, or is it left for us to implement?

Hi Mirko,

yes, this is correct, they are not recognised. You will have to implement it yourself if you want to use them.
But we will make sure that all mountains have the same colour and pattern as the ones in the first 21 Poached Eggs levels.

Hi,

we just announced the competition rules. Black and white birds and TNT will be used.

Do you mean maximal time instead of minimal?

[Jochen]

Hi Yaxin,

no, minimum of three minutes on average. If there are five levels you will have at least 15 minutes that you can use in any way you want. For example 1 minute on level 1 and 8 minutes on level 2, etc.

It might be that we give you more than three minutes on average, for example in the finals, but never less.

Hi,

please refer to the competition rules for the 2014 competition regarding the objects and birds we will most likely use in 2015.
The discussion in this thread refers to the 2013 competition.

Thanks,
Jochen
