*AHEM* not quite halfway through yet. On the 20th, we'll be halfway through.

I'm going to try to win this even though I'm just starting to make my game now. Wish me luck, I'm going to need it.

I've been taking my time to round my program before the deadline, it may be that the lack of entries is due to people doing the same. Do(es) the judge(s) of this contest take time to explore and use the entry program? (Say, for example, the entry program is a adventure game with extensive content.)

It's a community vote that is overseen by admins. I'm not sure if users will take the time to explore your game, but I'm guessing many will (unless all the submissions are long). They'll get two weeks to vote, and the admins will make sure that cheating is kept down.

Wouldn't it be a good idea to make a separate thread for program submissions? That way they don't get lost in the discussion?

See the original post and the pretty gif included. All you have to do is add it to the Programming Contest category, where everyone can see the submissions easily: https://smilebasicsource.com/search/Programming%20Contest During contests, this category is present on the submissions page. It's right up there with Programs and Resources.

Pretty gif :) I didn't realize you could filter for the contest entries, my mistake, oops, sorry! D: Time to actually work on my entry!

Maybe i don't need luck, my game is already done and it only took one day to make it! Still going to update it though. :D

I just realized my one idea I had didn't work how I wanted and now I have none. ... sigh

Don't lose hope! You can come up with something, I know it! Stand in resolve.

Perl, gurl, make a crystal jem gaem. It's got colors, no wonders, and it really explains how your so laem. lel EDIT: But seriously, you could make a game with gems and reflecting light or something.

I had an idea but I don't think I'll be able to figure it out before the time is up... It's over isn't it? Isn't it? Isn't it over? Why can't I move on...

I might have to drop out because I just went to the doctor a second time for hallucinating from sleep deprivation. Darn.

Shoulda waited for the contest to end before making this reference kik
