Kerwhoozawooten? I've been too busy this summer to even start work on a contest game! I guess it's never too late to start, as I'll be heading up to my cottage on tuesday to finish painting. :)

I probably could whip up a online mini adventure, though I tend to flip rapidly from one project to another, and I want to focus all attention on LostWinds.

Also, we should have a contest for all game makers. Well, sense this is the Game Maker's Garage, and this is a game making contest. It would be kind of fun to have people stretch their minds' to different possibilities and learn a new language. It would probably help people advance and get useful knowledge that will help them in the future.

Mine's done except for a few music tracks. I can't wait to have another decent game on the Roguesoft website. I'm slowly weeding out the older/smaller/crappy ones, hehe...

This is exactly what happened last time. Loads of people said they'd make a game for the contest, but hardly anyone actually did. :-/ What's up guys?

I'll probably release a full beta of mine a few days before the submission-end date. I'm just making a few last minute changes.

I guess when it comes to games, I'm totally unmotivated. But engines on the other hand...   ...yeah, I never get unmotivated when I can make some cool engine never before made that lots of people will use and modify. (Ex: MMO engine, Space ship maker, drawing program with mirroring and other cool features, v6 converted to Sc, gravity app for Sc)

Same, but I can't make any engines in flash because someone has already made them all.

How about a 2nd person style game. I don't think anyone has ever made a game where you see what going on through the eyes of the enemy.

As of today, I've only received 2 entries:
  • Eqwanox's SC Invaders
  • Gnome Again's Gnome Defender

So at the moment, you two are guaranteed a prize.  :D
