@ Muz- Yup, exactly. I guess most people are in the same boat though. That's why it would be better to announce a competition like this at least 1 day before it starts. Oh well, I suspect people would be using already half-prepared games or engines, making it difficult to compete with if you are truly going from scratch.
Blargh, I think Im out. I was aiming way too high with my prince of persia-clone. Levels take waay too long to make :c
Might just enter the engine though, if thats allowed? x'D just for fun
Going to have to shelve my game, have plans for today. It was going to be a platformer called Paradoxia with various in jokes and impossibilities in it.
if you're comfortable with it, please submit whatever you finish by this evening.
Seeing that this got the reaction it did, lets plan to have another next weekend.
It'll have a new theme/twist, a much earlier announcement, and a even a better incentive (not that dc points arent enough!)
I'll elaborate more tonight when I don't have to type on a damn cellphone.
Ricky: haha, nice play on words there. Looks like you're the winner so far I was planning to make PARADUCKS, but all I had was a fancy name about half an hour to make a game!
As there are only two entries, I'll extend the deadline 12 hours to 10am EST Teusday morning in the hopes that some peeps will upload there abandoned games. I will post a reply at 10 to cut off submissions, and then open up reviews for a day or two to see who wins.
and uh, I might sleep and wake up before I finish it, so It might be a quite a few hours, but in all fairness I'll have put in no more then 5 hours work total.
Just a heads up, its going to be named "Paradoxysm"
