All great entries this time round. I've got two more to give a proper play through before I stick my vote in but it's going to be a hard choice this time... As usual :)
I'm not voting for Tommy Gunn, though. Even though it's the clear winner by a mile :-)
Yep I was going to vote for Tommy Gunn, but decided to vote 10 times for Axonite.... hehehehehehe :-*

Don't think Qube will let me do that as I stuck him in jail this time. Don't know why he'd be unhappy with that. Could have bumped him off, after all :-)
no point in trying to bump anyone orf at the moment. Mr Covid and his deadly finger is just around the corner... :'(
Trying out the games now folks, got my scoring matrix out..... :o
Hmmm, appreciate bugfix time is over - Stevie could you provide a 'windowed' mode executable of your game - the default full screen resolution does not render to my laptop. ;) Ii can hear the sfx, however the screen is just 'black'.....
Another great comp and another lot of great games!
Sent my vote in ... wish I had more time to refine my entry.
I'm still dithering here. I have first place decided but it's second and third that's bugging me. Deciding if I should judge just be gameplay alone, or on an impression level. Really think it should just be which game plays the best, even if it's not technically as impressive as another game but it's pretty close.
Dither, dither, dither......
I had similar thoughts. I went with what gmae would I go back to and why. gameplay over something pretty - but to be honest they were all pretty :)

I agree with Adam, all games were pretty (well done guys). So it's just a case of what grabs you.
Anyone else donating to the prize pot? or do I crack open the piggy bank? :))
Finally made up my mind and sent my vote in. I was waiting for days for bribes to come in but none of you lot could be bothered :-)
Hour and a half left to vote for you guys that haven't yet. Surprised Qube hasn't had that many for this competition.
Voting closed! The winner is... tune in soon to find out ;D
I was unable to vote this time because a misbehaving laptop prevented me from running them all! Good job though; they are all impressive.

This is like waiting for the US Election results. :))
Drum roll...... :o
Did not find any spare time for "playing" ... kids in quarantaine, us air bomb found and evacuated ... so a lot of sparetime stolen.
Will try to play them later.
bye

Hahahaah!
Come on, Qube. Put us out of our misery.
The skin on the drums worn through..... New drum, drum roll...... :D
Ah crap.. I forgot that I put Qube in the slammer in my game. That's why he's not been able to do the winners post yet :)
Winners post up ;D - Sorry about the delay but I've been crazy busy :(
So.. Who's up for something quick for Christmas? ( not a game )

Oooh, what you got in mind. I think, if I'm brave enough, I might try diversifying and do something in Godot, just for the challenge.
Was thinking of something a little fun to take us up to Christmas. No prizes, just the bragging rights of winning the 1st..... Will post tonight ;D
