I am wondering, would porting a computer game to the calculator be against the rules? Because it still requires creativity to port it. Neutral

I don't see why it would be against the rules. It would still require alot of work to recode it in BASIC (or ASM)

Agreed. Porting of existing programs should be allowed, HOWEVER, to avoid legality issues, the program should either be substantially different from the original, or the author should obtain written permission to port.

Laughing Unofficially, I see no reason why you can't start thinking about your entries. Officially, though, Rivereye hasn't released the start and end dates yet.
