Cinematic Spell Contest #1

Cinematic Spell Contest #1

Description

Your aim is to create a spell, that will be tested in a cinematic frame and can be used for a cinematic movie, while it stands out for its lovely effects. Only effects will be judged, so, the spell must not (or at least doesn't need to) have functionality. Your submission must be functioning in a way that, when a user presses the Escape button, the spell will be casted and, once the spell is done, another Escape button will let the user exit game.

Example Preview:


Code example:

• Cinematic1
• Events
  • Player - Player 1 (Red) skips a cinematic sequence
• Conditions
• Actions
  • If (All conditions are true) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • (Escape1) Equal to False [This is boolean], so the "Escape1" is a boolean variable
    • Then - Actions
      • Set Escape1 = True
      • <Start the cinematic spell actions here>, e.g. "Trigger - Run Trigger <gen>"
      • Else - Actions
        • Game - Victory Player 1 (Red)

It's a terrible spin-off of the Zephyr Contest and we already got 1 of those in the heat of fire right now. You better suggest this as theme for the next Zephyr Contest. If they insist an entry must have a functional effect, you'll just have to forget the whole thing.
