Dear friends,

We've got 18 impressive demos for the retro game remake contest. They are now uploaded to Acknex Unlimited (AU demos page) . If you don't see your game here, email me - george at acknex dot net and we'll fix that.

The voting starts tomorrow. Good luck!

George

great, sad thing about a multiplayer entry is that the server may be empty when someone tries to test the game i'll have to stay online and keep monitoring so i can pawn anyone that walks by

Great contest this time.
Here are many high quality entries.

There should be more -Make a game- contests,
(and not make a shader, animation, effect, praise the new features stuff)

Announcement regarding Kubetris:

The game is supposed to ask you for your language and whether you want to allow it to connect to the internet at the beginning. This is not the case for the version George uploaded, because he apparently started the game to see if it works and uploaded the game in the state it was afterwards, so the game starts with the options he chose, which are English and disallowing the connection to the internet. This means, if you keep the options as they are, you won't be able to use the online highscore or the news.

You can change this in the options. To make the game ask you at the beginning again, you can replace the file "events.sav" by the file "events0.sav".

Yes, Lukas is right; his game only asks about it once and I had to patch it because he has found some bugs in the previous version. Lukas, if you send me a new zip I can replace the existing file. Just make sure that it doesn't include an installer and that it is a zip archive.

Ok, here is the new zip archive:
http://www.brogames.de/kubetris/kubetris.zip
It will be online in approx. half an hour. Please tell me when you got the file, because I had to delete the installer version because there wasn't enough space and I want to reupload it asap.
EDIT: I have noticed that the server lets you already download the file, although it's not yet fully uploaded. You can't get the complete file by this. I think I will just tell you when you can download it.

Ok, I'll wait. Darkinferno, I have applied the patch you've sent already. Is this a newer one?

Ok, now you can download the file. If you already downloaded it before reading this, it's most propably broken.

It's uploaded on AU. Check it out and let me know if everything is OK.
