So I haven't been noticing many updates on projects lately, who's still participating? Did anyone give up? I hope not :)

I'm going to enter if I can finish my game fast enough, it is a mode 7 style racer for Nspire. Do I have to make sure that my program works on touchpad calcs, (?) because I don't have one.

I think it should work on both, but I don't know if the rules say anything about it.

I'm still in. I haven't posted anything about my new entry yet, although it's progressing fairly well ;)

One worry I had is that almost every contest entry topic did not have any update since May, and I hoped that this doesn't mean all of them died... O.O

I've been working on a project for the contest #1 too, but I probably have to give up now, since I'm failing at trying to combine x256 physics with smoothscrolling tilemapping since about three weeks. =/

Sorry to hear. You could always try to ask for help, though, although the contest finishes in 3 weeks. X.x

If you haven't seen my thread, I changed my mind, and am doing a zombie fps game. I did not have to do much over again, as they both use a raycasting engine I'm still working on.

Well... I didn't back up, so my project's dead. And right after I finished the main physics engine too :(

Well, it's back, and backed up. Never was gone, just n00b'd by myself :P

Good to hear. Also fb39 try to not make something too large, though. We need to remember those contests lasts 2 months each.

Axe: less than 3 weeks remains
Nspire: less than 7 weeks
-----: Starts in less than 3 weeks.

Also keep in account vacations with no internet access. If you think you will lose net access, try to submit your entry before leaving.

I won't announce updates in my thread unless I add a new function.  I mean, what's the point of showing you guys the new levels and how to beat them?  ;)

Minor setback due to code messing up.  On hold for Contest.

Ugh, Nymless might be a little...sparse. Everything's coded and working except the main menu (All I have is the mockup) and the level loading/storing, both crucial pieces blocked by timing.
In other news, Frey continues kicking unprecedented levels of ass.

I agree, I also never see Continuity Screenshots past the 1st level so I don't learn how to beat the levels.

I was thinking about participating in the Axe Contest at first, but my platformer's code was getting too big for me.

Then I thought about the Lua one, but Lua is not much of a language. I *may* make a very simple Lua game for the contest, but am not sure yet, probably not.
