I'm sitting this one out, although I am definitely keeping the game idea I had for a later time.

Oh, and I'm not making an entry this year. So... unless you all can make some games by Halloween, it'll be just Fen. And well... not to be a slime, but I did say along time ago that unless there were a certain amount of people in it I wouldn't offer a prize, just to save my own neck there.

So yeah, if you want to win, get some people to release some games! We need 5 for there to be a 1st place winner.

I'm still releasing my game regardless of whether it's finished or not.

An extension? This would be very useful!

NIGHTMARE MODE: NO EXTENTIONS

I'll try to get this game out by next Wednesday in either case.

So... I know TwinHamster and Fenrir are DEFINITELY releasing games, but who else is 100% sure they'll have stuff? I just need to know so I know how much mullah to pull out of the bank.

2008 is a leap year, dunderhead.

Fact: Firefox's spell checker recognizes "dunderhead."

Yeah, Slime Salad won't let me change it to 2007...

But yeah, contest was supposed to be over tommorow. But since SOME people can't get their act together and have to request extensions, it's up to a week from tommorow. But there won't be another extension. If ya don't have anything by then, release what ya got or else too bad so sad. Ha.

But, by all means, if you worked really hard and want to release your game on Halloween for the spirit of the holiday go ahead.

Also, I've decided, just for the hell of it, I'm going to let the community help out a bit with bonus points! Check this, if you write a review of a Halloween themed game anytime between today and the ending of the contest you can award any game entry an extra five points to their total score.

So for some of you that have Halloween themed games *cough* Shadowiii *cough* you should upload them to Slime Salad for people to review.

I love this idea, Red. I will use to completely wreck who the winner is. <3

I've finished my game in two versions. Slime Salad will currently only support ONE version, that is a lower quality Midi version that totals in at around 1.3 MB, instead of the Higher quality version at 8.98 MB. I will continue trying to attach the superior version, but for now I'm glad I had the foresight to make two different versions of the game BEFORE trying to upload it.

A workaround has been found! Be SURE to follow the directions VERY CAREFULLY to enjoy "high quality" OGG music in an OHRRPGCE game!
