Seems a cool idea, but it's a shame I have college and won't have much time to spend on it in October... Someone should do a summer break contest. Plenty of time then! Razz

Can I assume there will be a special game file released on October 1st? I'm entering this, by the way and I WILL NOT FAIL! (fail=not turn in a game, as opposed to lose)

Oh good lord, not a 'special' game file. Contests with those usually have a low turnout.

Not that THAT would be a problem with this contest...

An idea crossed me. It involves music and atmosphere. Creepy music is playing, then silence... And then some unexpected creepy music again.
Put a lot of rests. Play tricks on the player's brain. Don't like it? Oh well.

LeRoy, ever play Clock Tower on the SNES? It does that a few times. Most of the game is in silence, but sometimes sound effects or that creepy "Music Box" song kicks in, and you get the chills.

Get it.

Didn't think it was original... At least I know it works. Thank you, Shadow.

Really, a special game file is kind of a stupid idea. I mean, all anyone has to do, is download the game, and steal the image of any backdrops, figure out which palette to use and all, and copy paste any graphics. So, no, don't expect a special game file. Oh, Fenrir, I had something to ask you, be watching your Private Messages.

Well, it's not a stupid idea because you could hide the change rather easily and it's a very effective way to stop cheating. But I'm not gonna aruge. (oh wait, what was that?)

You do know this isnt the terrible game contest right?

You could have made that game way more appealing.

I say pfah to that. It does it's job properly.

Of course I know this isn't the Terrible Games contest. I'm too busy(translation: My time is far too important) to do a better entry.

BAHAHAHAHA!!!! What do you mean, it could be "more" appealing? The concept of the thing had no appeal whatsoever in the first place! Of course it could be more appealing.

I've gotta say, granting that his gamelist entry, and these comments here, were so scary I didn't play the game, he's probably the early favorite.
