Hurray! I think my original idea would take too long to make, so I'm attempting a new one.

Not shall be spoke of it, leaving thy curiosity to overflow! Mwahay!

I'm totally entering in this one :D

Maybe simplify things to a classic arcade game though.

Oh btw, how did your last one go? Do you think it's still finishable someday? (finishable... I've invented more words than Shakespeare on this forum!)

These coontest are the only thing that motivates me to actually make a game

I don't know if I'll enter this one...If I did I would have to make a game in SC, because there's no way I can make an arcade game in GM with a fifteen-line code limit.  :D

:P  Well, I guess you guys will have to try to make the better space invader game. Such as: fix up the interface, add upgrades, and try to make your opponents game look like trash.
