I am sorry to say I wonder if the judges take these contests seriously anymore. I commented before about the #speedwaychallenge, the speedway challenge winners were VERY deserving winners compared to what I see this week. I might not participate for a while. My box was "Toy Box Podracer".
1. Felucia's Clandestine Race by @Dad
- I Couldn't properly judge this box because it crashes every time I load it on PS4.
2. Naboo's Podrace Celebration by @Sonicphoto
Gameplay: A short track without much challenge.
Fun: AI idea was interesting but didn't offer much challenge.
Innovation: Podracing AI attempt was the only innovation.
Decor: Above Average
Theme: Acceptable but not a challenging or long track.
Story: n/a
3. Pod Race: Test Drive by @Semerien
Gameplay: I honestly can't see how this won this time.
Fun: Very short leaderboard race without much detail.
Innovation: Toy Box "Test Drive" beats Toy Box Podracer. Really?
Decor: Not much here
Theme: There were better Tatooine themed tracks available.
Story: n/a
4. Pod Prowling by @Vasuri83
Gameplay: I am using ranged attacks against podracers on a path in this box.
Fun: The player is not even given a weapon I am aware of.
Innovation: Podracing Challenge, not Pod Shooting challenge. Nothing wrong with out of box thinking but other boxes were better overall.
Decor: Not a lot of décor.
Theme: average
Story: n/a
5. Podracing School by Max Thrasher
Gameplay: Interior leading to collectable challenge with C-3P0 to start a Podraceing Challenge.
Fun: Collectable Challenge before a podrace is not necessarily the most fun idea for multiplayer.
Innovation: ?
Decor: The only strong suit of this box.
Theme: ?
Story: n/a
Rising Star: Fantasia 500 - inf6201735
Gameplay: Honestly, if this is gameplay to these judges I am worried about the gameplay of Infinity 4.0!(If the same people are the actual developers!)
Fun: Not the most balanced track to be honest.
Innovation: I used super cannons as well.
Decor: Not much décor.
Theme: I have seen better themed tracks.
Story: n/a
Are some toy boxes entries just flat out ignored or are the judges pressed for time? I had fun competing, but I will probably stay on the sidelines awhile after these results.
