just make the awards so that no fan games can win them, or make one category for like "Best Fan Game" and then make all the other ones apply only to original games. Then the awards would actualy mean something and be worth voting on But what would that award really mean if that game really didn't have the best gameplay or graphics? | |

Just because games tend to take inspiration from each other, or otherwise use very common elements of gameplay, doesn't make them unoriginal. Zillions of games with cards and dice exist; obviously there is no one single original card game, one single original dice game. Originality is more about the content than presentation, and that's the context it was used in here. Fan games are unoriginal by definition because they draw on someone else's characters, story, etc. to work. Lummox JR | |

Lummox JR Just to be realistic, I honestly haven't seen a non-fangame on byond with better graphics then the fangame in my blog. Not that that game will actually ever come out, but there you have the existence of such content you thought about. | |
