Oh I just wanted to also say I had really good fun running this - if you check the help sections in the dev dept you can see me asking about BASIC pygame issues...and now I've managed to make a small game. Albeit it did lose to a terminal game but still, t'was fun. Foxblock did say another comp was running but if there isn't I may start up a new one. Maybe after I land in Toronto though (1/6/11)

Congratulations guys!


Really impressive the quality of games made in such a short time!

 

[Orion4874]

Nice job guys, I'm anxious to be able to try these out!

Hey everyone,


I am going to "out" myself and admit I was one of the slackers (with a pandora) that didn't vote. Honestly I just lost track of time. My panda still has that new car smell and I've been hard at work getting it all set up (excuses, excuses). I did manage to try all the games a couple days ago, but never made it back to vote. I know.. I suck!


Part of me really wanted to vote for all the underdogs in the contest, but in the long run I am pretty sure my 3 votes would've been for the top 3 (probably in the order that they placed).


Anyway, congratulations to all of you! I think you all did great. Keep up the good work. It is stuff like this that makes the pandora so cool. Just wanted you all to know that even though I blew it and didn't vote in time that your work is appreciated.


Thanks,


Lou.

[juliano]

Congratulations to all who participated. Nice job.

Sorry Richiz life got in the way and I failed to vote.


As yours was the only game I played I guess I would have voted for you first then Wars and then Rescue (nudity wins).


So if it was not for my wife's birthday you may well have been just that little further up the table.

 

[Nintendo]

Nudity...hmmmm...

Yeah, I'm looking forward to another competition. Maybe even I'll participate, in this one, or the next one


What happens with the painted case, can we have photos from the new happy owner?

 

[McLovin]

sorry, richiz. Tried all games but yours, somehow didn't realize it existed. Will try as soon as I can.


Those platformers are really nice and have some fresh ideas. Thx to all devs.

Sigh, missed opportunity.

I know my game "Rescue" didn't deserve to win, but I think it was perhaps a little under played. You're not all so afraid of a naked man, are you?


So anyway, I want to offer some $$ large cash prizes $$ for anyone who is able to complete part of the game, by rescuing some of the lady folk who are stuck down the cave.


See this page for details, scroll down: http://sam.ai.ki/rescue.html


How often do you get a free / public domain game with cash prizes? Not very often. Take advantage of my insanity.


I have managed to rescue almost all of the girls, but not all in a single game! But then again I'm not much of a gamer, the force is not strong with this one. I have not heard report than anyone else has rescued any of the girls yet. Most people seem to get stuck at an early stage, and give up. My three year old son can play it better than those people! Please read the hints on my webpage.


The cash prize pool for my proposed "rescue" competition is $300 AUD ($315 US / £193), plus a mystery prize of great value if you can achieve the impossible and rescue all ten girls. Some of the prizes are very easy to take out, any child could do it. The game is pretty damn hard, but someone should be able to take out the first 3 or 4 prizes at least. If anyone cheats, and I notice, the competition is off.


If still no one rescues any girls, even with this cash incentive, I will cry myself to sleep every night for a month, quit developing lousy games for the Pandora, and shift over to the playstation or iPhone or something! nah not really... but I will be pissed off and embittered inside!
