If I'd have a couple more minutes I would have added a high score table, but I was getting close to the deadline so I didn't.

Anyway, here's an official "announcement" topic for my entry (written in Java) in the PC game category.



Disclaimer: this is based on a previous project that never saw completion, which I dug up out of my old projects folder. The old one had a ton of problems with the multithreading code that made it crash for no reason, and several sprites ripped off of Google Image search, a scoring system that didn't reward you for shooting things (or penalize you for shooting willy-nilly without any regard for accuracy). Also the user interface was pretty much non-existent. The old game was available for download at one point, but this has enough "new" stuff that I would consider it a previously unreleased work. If the judges feel differently I'll understand. The topic for the old game was here: http://www.cemetech.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=71309

Seems like a fair set of assumptions to me. Nice job on a last-minute submission, Elfprince, and good luck!

Thanks, I actually had a different game I wanted to revise, but the time constraints were too tight for the amount of stuff I wanted to add. Thanks for motivating me to finish and publish a working game =)

No problem! Hopefully you'll even upload it to the archives when grading is over and the results are released.

Published!

Published indeed! You can grab Elfprince's tunnel game from the archives here (I bludgeoned his screenshots into submission):
