I'm working as we speak. Should run under Mac with DarWINE, albiet with no sound. Should run on Linux fine with WINE. Should run perfectly on windows with windows.

Yes! You get an imaginary ribbon that says "I'm A Winner!"

JK

You get the joy that your program was considered the best out of all the entries!

Actually, I got there, got hit, and suddenly Link is standing in front of the tree from LoZ:OoA and two windows were spawned and kept flashing between each other. Oh and speaking of lazy programming, what is up with the non-pits? I avoided them all the way to the button, then I accidentally ran into one and realized it was a wall! (I know, I couldn't have done better, but still, no pits=FAIL!!!)

Yeah the same thing happened to me. Then to close the game I had to kill the process with Task Manager.

Sure. There aren't enough entries. Monday it is.

Alright, I made a new game. It's called...

Shoot The Mavis!

Download: Shoot The Mavis!

All you do in this game is shoot the Head of Mavis Beacon, which is a fictional Character in Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing. In 10th Grade at my school (Which I'm in) we need to take a Typing Class. Everybody hates the game and literally would love to Kill Mavis...so, I've given them the chance. Well actually, anybody on Benheck gets it before my school will because School aint 'til Monday.

Anyways, Test it out. Oh, and turn up the speakers! It has UT Sound Effects!

I don't feel the need to enter anything really - I find the competition between Visual Basic, Game Maker and RPG Maker too rigged when against real languages such as C++ and ASM.

Oh, come on, Sky! You can try! Enter something cool.

He he! Unintended rhyme.

Of course I can try, and my arrogant ass is dead sure I could beat you all on a technical level.

However, the graphical difficulty comparison between previously said languages is extremely high-balanced against my primary languages. If I were to put in an entry, it would be guaranteed to lose to a game made in VB/GM/RPGM or something.

Actually, just sparked an idea - I'll enter something.
