Allright then, we stick to the original date. Time to polish your game! :mrgreen:

Thanks to those who already submitted. I and other judges will not review them until the deadline, so so can always send a last minute update if you wish.

Well - I completely forgot about the UCC2106 till a few days ago. Evaluated the crazy idea I had to try and top T2K on a techincal level and decided it would never happen in a week.

So I just started my alternative game this morning. It is a much less ambitious idea than the other one. But I should be finished to playability in one or two days.

It might have helicopters and tanks.

I would be happy to look at entries as long as they run in the emulator well.

It is among the rules ("Projects must be made to run on the hardware and emulator."), so I guess this shouldn't be a problem!

Was a rushed job in the last week.

I would have loved to have put a timer on the levels to give bonus points if you finish fast to make it more frantic. But I ran out of time myself.

As Usual the sound is average because I have no idea about sound.

Edit: Oh - I am currently using the EEPROM block assigned for T2K - as I didn't think about asking for some new blocks assigned. I will recompile it when I get 2 new blocks assigned.

We should never run out of space in the 16 bit ID range. Myself and probably most people just took one(s) that made sense, and at least no one ever publicly rebuked them that I've seen.

Still almost half a day to go, and it seems like there are three entries in (as far as this forum goes, of course I don't know who else sent in his silently). Hope it is all going well!

CunningFellow: "It might have helicopters and tanks", 6 days ago, and now the game is in with helicopters and tanks :lol: I wouldn't ever be able to get anything done in such a little time (won't tell more for now, just that I am impressed by what I saw in the package)!

I didn't receive a PM, so I'll assume this is your entry then. :)
