Last time I visited, it looked inactive.

Cool another contest. Too bad I am "busy" with non-TI projects. Still I am putting together ideas...

Hope you can clear up your schedule enough to participate

It seems I searched deep in TI communities. Unfortunately, some very inactive and Detached Solutions is such a pity...
Curiosity: some programming groups have very cool names. OTBP, for example but UnSyntax has a cool motto in his page.

If I get a very good and original idea, I could rush to enter the contest (pausing the others). :biggrin: But such idea doesn't appear from nothing and I needed to play some games or make a random puzzle like game and evolve its concept.
I haven't play too much games lately...

No distinction of only BASIC and Hybrid/ASM? If you are aiming at an original puzzle with good playability BASIC is not very overwhelmed because the idea is important.

hmm, I just realized that I hadn't said if there was a distinction between ASM basic and Hybrid, I don't know if we will have one though. I'll ask Keith if we should. what about EMP (mine) no it doesn't mean Electro-magnetic pulse though (Eeems Main Page ( though I am thinking about changing it to something like Electro Magnetic Programming jkjk))
well I hope an idea hits you (literally, you tend to miss them if they don't)

yeah I figured that out the hard way, though my own forum get's me to learn HTML and such, which is good, and I use it for hosting my betas when I want people to download test them for me.
EDIT:we have extended the contest end date by one week, just so you know.

Default! Thats the sickest way to win.

Unfortunate you didnt have any more entries, but dont let this discourage you from hosting more comps!

Any chance we can see the submission?

haha! it seems there is a lot of slider type games in ti-basic. I know there are at least 2 more Orbix's, but i wanted to focus on recreating it as faithfully as possible, with maximum speed. The thing i like about Orbix especially is the different types of blocks that make it different from most sliders.

Yeah. I can't beat the last two levels. Smile I agree. Sliders are different because they all have different blocks. Your's is great.
