72hrgdc results are in, Speedhack is looming

Tuesday, July 25th, 2006

Results of the 72hrgdc contest are in, voting placed our entry in the good middle field. Edge’s graphics were not considered “retro” so much as “amateurish” :P Anyway, we got place 2 in innovation, and that also is Edge’s merit, the game was mostly his idea. There also were some really nice comments about our game, in fact we probably got very high scores from a group of voters, and bad scores from another. Unfortunately there’s no way to see detailed stats.

Now, I’m already looking forward to Speedhack, which will start on August 4. And this time I have to do better than in last TINS.

Lots of compos going on

It seems, there is really lots of game programming compos going on. Remakes.org is still hot, and I was thinking a bit about games to remake over at Remakes. Top candidate would be Crazy Sue. And also 72hrGDC and Speedhack are coming up in the next weeks. Now let’s wait and see if I’ll be able to do a game for any of them :)
