[CLOSED] AWIND's Chinese Zodiac-Feature Contracts Submissions Thread

[Count.Rushmore]

To be honest I personally didn’t understand a question.
Which animal, which title and which color theme?

[AWIND]

Use the the animal name as the contract title.Such as the contract “Rat Trap“,it will be used “The Rat“ as the title.

[AWIND]

I remember there’s a color theme of featured contract also use the color as the contract title

[Count.Rushmore]

Would be interesting

[magicdave94]

I vote no because like I said in DM I personally would stick with the original titles as I think the theme gets through enough without a title change. In fact, I think when we did the colours batch I thought it would be better to do differing titles too iirc because it makes them more unique imo.

But also not opposed to the change if you choose to do it that way

[blutgeld]

I am fine with such title changes myself, but feel as long as the animal name or some reference to said animal is in the title in some way would be good too. Having the actual animal as the title would be more uniformed like a zodiac calendar and perhaps easier to read from the player’s end, but having special titles gives more uniqueness and identity from a contract creator POV.

[Melusca]

Another good way to showcase the animals without changing the contract titles would be to have something like a blank, round space on the FC banner that could be swapped to a pic of the specific animal involved in the contract? Obviously that would mean a lot more banner editing but heavier edits have been done on FC thumbnails in the past.

Edit: quick mockup in MS Paint to show what I’m talking about

[Urben]

I voted no because it might not work out or could be messed up by IO if you ask them to alter the titles. I remember some curators asked for adjustments to be made that just did not happen.
Alternatively, asking all submissions to be remade with the new title scheme surely will not be followed by everyone. Such naming rules are better made form the start.

[AWIND]

I have asked Arti and he said they could realize, trusting them

[zubin47]

I am planning to submit 2 contracts without Animals, one with the 5 elements of Chinese Zodiac and another based on Jackie Chan Animated Series or his movie. Not sure will it be applicable. Otherwise I will plan to submit based on the remaining animals. Just for the participation, maybe I will submit. I am out of my PS5/City due to work for last 3 weeks, will be back on Friday and the other submission thread is also pending. Thanks to Hitmaps, I made some idea on the contracts already.

@AWIND
I found that White-Half also created a zodiac themed set of contracts. Maybe they have some you would like to include in your batch?

Contract Title: King Cobra Assassin

Contract Briefing:
A rare species of King Cobra is known to be assassins. They inject highly potent neurotoxins into the body with their bite, killing instantly. Sometimes they secretly release their venom into the target’s glass and wait for them to consume it. To create confusion, they keep changing their colors - red, green, blue and white - and shed their skin after each kill. They disappears by crawling into dark holes in the ground. Beware of them.

Contract Details (targets/kill conditions/complications):

A short description of the contract:
The area of this contract is somewhat compact nearly using around one fourth of the map – north east part. Some KO is required and keeping patience is the key. There will be a lot of re-playability even for casual players to get better score I am sure. A short story is put up based on the animal, beware of King Cobra or Spitting Cobra, it may be crawling near your leg now when you are reading this.

It’s a puzzle contract where you need to solve how to

1. get the poisons
2. get the disguises (especially the blue and green skins)
3. get a target out of public area
4. get green disguise as fast as possible (for speedrunners)
5. consumed poison a target who does not consume anything
6. consumed poison a target in public without the disguise (like cook/staff) that allow tampering consumable without suspicions

Note that:

1. the routes of npcs and targets will vary depending on some actions, starting location or race results
2. while starting, need to bring a type of poison which is available by default (like fibre wire)
3. there are multiple optimised entry possible for the combination - waiter, mechanic, medic, vendor, event crew or marshal
4. that hidden mandatory exit is added to add more taste to the theme and is not very far away (as the briefing says)
5. with the white skin, that is not the exit.
6. image suggestion is a clue to get the poisons
7. alcohol consumption is prohibited in Islam (a clue)
8. journalists ask so many questions that celebrities don’t even get a chance to rehydrate (a clue)

Animal Chosen: Snake

Platform: PS5

Contract Title: In Sheep’s Clothing

Contract Briefing:
A wise shepherd wore wool to pretend he was a harmless sheep. He walked into the wolves’ den, which was an old hidden weapon cache from a forgotten war. The wolves welcomed him, thinking him prey. When he reached the center, he opened the cache and took up the guns. The alpha fell first, then the rest of the pack. By dawn, the threat was gone. His sheep were safe once more.

Contract Details (targets/kill conditions/complications):

A short description of the contract:
This contract is inspired by “Hunter and Hunted” final mission of Hitman Contracts where the prey becomes the predator. There is a short story in the briefing.

It’s a puzzle contract where you need to solve how to

1. get the disguise with available items (very nearby starting location) in the map
2. make the wolves welcome you to their den without the trespassing status
3. get the fifth weapon which is not there in the den
4. use all five type of silenced weapons in one play through (optional)
5. use all five types of unsilenced weapons in one play through without alarming any non-targets (optional)

Note that:

1. a mission story needs to be done for casual players
2. soundproofing is active after second wall
3. there are multiple optimised entry possible
4. there is no mandatory exit but almost all players will take that exit only
5. all targets are in same room; you may highlight them before to check the weapon type kill
6. you may go battle royale first person shooter mode - I tried it was fun

Animal Chosen: Sheep

Your Cobra/Snake contract is really interesting to me, with how you manipulate NPC movement and behaviour.
