^^ You *can* make one on full mode, but then remember that you might lose votes from people who only have 83+s...But then you might gain votes because your game is so amazing because it needs 15mhz. Personally I'd try not to go into 15mhz unless there's extremely complex physics or stuff in 3D

Both 6 and 15 MHz games are allowed, but as Squidgetx pointed out, you might lose votes from people who don't have a 15 MHz calc. In any case, it's best to leave your game compatible with slower models, even if they will run slower. You might still manage to salvage some votes than if you just show an error message.

Aw, a platformer...
I never did manage to make a working platformer...
But I shall persevere!

I have rudimentary tilemapping, a rough story, and am currently working on physics.
My website: Currently boring.

Projects:
Axe Interpreter
   > Core: Done
   > Memory: Need write code to add constants.
   > Graphics: Rewritten.  Needs to integrate sprites with constants.
   > IO: GetKey done.  Need to add mostly homescreen IO stuff.
Croquette:
   > Stomping bugs
   > Internet version: On hold until I can make my website less boring/broken.

You can also make a puzzle :)

I can't tilemap because polar functions hurt my head and make me leak brain fluids.

Why are you using Polar Functions with a tilemap? O.o

You mean "polar"?

I got a pretty nice puzzle idea today, but designing levels will be pretty hard.  I made the first level and the entire basic engine.  I might add more functions later, but for now, I'm just making levels.  And I'm backing up often now.  ;)

EDIT:  2012 posts!

I actually think I'm getting far ^-^

got all physics worked out for the player and inanimate objects, and now I'm making rope physics :D

Ooops yeah XD Haha if only Portal Functions were that easy :P

I myself have springs set up but I might try to change them into rope if its not too hard or slow
