I have to admit, I've watched the demo like 100 times already :D
(ok, thats slightly exaggerated - but I've seen it countless of times).
I'm hoping for lots of cool entries :)

quick prize update, since I didn't do it already:
top 3 will have a copy of the MindCandy of their choice (MC1, MC2, or MC3)

Big thanks to the mindcandy folks for that!

Deadline is 12.12.11 so does that means that on 12.12.11 we can still submit and 13th we can not? Kind of important so i want to be clear on this.

You understood correctly.
I need to get something by the 12th.
I usually leave people the chance to update/send again after the 12th for last minute tweaks and/or fixes, but waiting for the 13th to start to working on your prod is not a good idea :)

in the words of Sadako (from Ringu)


you have . . . seven . . . days.


Are real MS DOS also accepted? :D

was forgetting about this compo rule

Quote:
The demo must run under Windows XP Professional on a current machine (dual core 3 GHz, 2 G of RAM), or alternatively under dosbox 0.72 or possibly later stable version if one becomes available before the contest start date.


so: exin, yeah, if it runs on dosbox it's allowed. sadly for me no osx allowed. actually now i was more thinking of trying textmode on the browser.. but it's just another silly idea :)

I hope everyone is done with their prods by now..:)
added on the 2011-12-12 20:11:18 by fragment fragment
I hope everyone is done too. Talking of which, fragment, where's your prod ?

On another note: for anyone who's interested, gmail (what I'm using for tmdc) is now blocking RARs the same way it blocked ZIPs.
So if anyone sent a RAR or a ZIP, odds are I never got it. So plz send again!

best is probably a link to the actual package. Other solution known to work are: 7z, ZIP renamed as something else, like .z_i_p

Also, I'd like to let any participant know that I'm giving a full week of extension/update. So you've all got till the 19th to submit a new, bug-fixed or polished version.
added on the 2011-12-15 06:30:04 by BarZoule BarZoule
Yay for official deadline extension. I'll send in a new lovely z_i_p soon.
added on the 2011-12-15 07:59:24 by musk musk
No prod this time:( I have about 25% done. Maybe next year..
added on the 2011-12-15 08:37:31 by fragment fragment
nice!
lets make this thread shine! i was hoping to see some tm-demos but you extended the deadline to the 19th.
does the rules still apply having sound or?
what about pc-speaker sound?
added on the 2011-12-15 13:21:48 by rudi rudi
come on rudy! If you really want to be oldschool you could at least try FM ?
but no sound is boring and pc-speaker are a endangered species these days, just like the floppy drive was some years ago.

hell, just make one of them c one-liner and pass it to your favorite waveout! :)

I was first planning to have the music as a set of awesome oneliners. :)
added on the 2011-12-15 18:24:02 by musk musk
BarZoule: but, pc-speaker is oldschool and so is textmode! wuhaa! :)

I wish I and Dr Claw had had time . . .

*sigh*

*sigh*
..well?:)
added on the 2011-12-21 15:36:39 by fragment fragment
Well, I'm guessing somebody waited till the 21th to start working on their prod.

added on the 2011-12-22 09:39:32 by musk musk
ok, when?
