Cool. A lot can be done in 2 months.

Nitpicking here, but it doesn't say anywhere that Bennu has to be used. Perhaps you should point this out explicitly.

[splinter_work]

Please, some mod or admin, that fix the rules... in 3rd line, add "* The games must be programmed using BennuGD."

thanks...

[josebita]

In the rules, the last lines state:

...
     * Awards (for now only 1 prize):
           1st Prize: 1 Full Package WIZ (Wiz + accessories)
           2nd Prize: 1 Wiz.
           3rd Prize: Accessories Wiz.

I assume that's an error, right?. There are three prizes...

PS: Made the topis sticky

[Burbruee]

That's really cool. Might give me enough of inspiration to start programming again.

 - Registration until November 15th (not required) 
So I don't have to register? I just have to send my completed work in before the deadline? (because I have a tendency to not complete my projects unfortunately.. )

I will try not to put too much complications to my game and keep it as simple and full with depth as possible =]
I will try and make my code as clean as possible because Its going to be on the WIZ and I have no idea how will it handle it =]

my personal aim for this project would be the addiction and the playability aspects of the game =]
people that know me probably know that the graphics would be top notch as usual

as we speak I already drew a main character figure animation something awsome realy!
and I have a main idea ready and several features and ways to program it... I have the gameplay plan ready in my mind... now all I have to do
is draw and code it and see what happends... many changes are to be expected lolz =]
