I already have several PCs. With Linux on them. (Also let's not get into off-topic OS fights...)

Anyway, it will be compatible with anything that can run LÖVE.

Update! A pause menu? Yay. Otherwise I'm (hopefully) back from my lack-of-a-working-computer hiatus. I did a hard drive transplant on my laptop and I'm (hopefully) getting super high-speed Internet tomorrow. (Unless my mom postpones it again because cleaning not done.)

Lol I do hope she doesn't cancel your internet or something due to that (although of course cleaning needs to be done at one point :P). You are already past 18 now (21), although I guess if she pays for it entirely maybe she has full control (in my case I paid almost all of it near the end and when my mom cancelled it I immediately started preparing to move out)

Anyway glad to see this is still alive. I hope you make it in time for the contest deadline :D

Moar updates!

The Internets gets postponed again. not because of my mom this time, but because of the ISP! The tech actually went checking in my house, but he apparently left without beginning the job in the first place because of some weird reason. Calling the customer service only left us even more confused.

Anyway, some confirmations: the graphics will be 16-color-palette Final Fantasy style. And I'll leave you with a title screen placeholder I just made.

Glad you like. That's actually the font from Final Fantasy.

Also pause screen update. As you can see, I used that spritesheet with better grayscale and it works perfectly on Linux.

Looks nice. I wonder if you could get in trouble for using FF fonts (without modifying them) or if Square made them public domain?

Also lol I hope this isn't the final title screen :P (not that it's bad, but it would be nice if it remained true to the originals). What is the game resolution? Since it's 16 color palette like the NES, would 256x224 be nice? (320x240 with a black frame to make it look like 256x224 or 640x480 scaled up 2x no filtering)

And you should really switch to a different company. Bell is terrible (although Videotron service is only good if they do not send third party workers, and their phone service is slow sometimes)

Also you should change EPS to EPS/Omnimaga. It stopped existing since late 2005 and since then, all EPS releases by me were re-attributed to Omnimaga. Maybe

(c) 2004, EPS & Omnimaga
(c) 2013, Omnimaga

It isn't the final title screen, the final one will prolly have more graphics like the original. The font I got said something about being commercial-friendly though, but as I said, this most likely won't be used in final title.

The resolution is already 256x224 scaled up 2x with linear interpolation (that is, no filtering).

And yeah, Bell's customer service is total shit, we're considering switching.

And what about (c) 2004, 2013 Omnimaga to make it a one-liner.

Ok thanks for the info. Hopefully you can use a similar font, since it looks similar to calc ones. And yeah the copyright you suggest seems fine.

Also if you go for a 8 bit NES style game, you might have to get rid of transparency for the menu, since it won't look consistent if used (NES didn't support translucency). Eg something like this (except with higher res tiles lol):
