Ha!
Status of my game: 30%
Status code: 40%
Used semicolon: 24

And i dont use tricks,... so it is very easy to write a game with "100 lines".
A tip: make your setup (position, parameter, ans so on,...) in wed.
So you dont have to define it in your script.
Use macros
And there are some mor little tricks to keep the count of your "semis" low.
(i don't say all tricks,... -> keep my chance to win
First i write my code without this "tricks". At the end i will optimzie the code, so i will see how much code i can write for "spezial" functions / effects.

the minishootball game had 900 lines

whitout changing anything i could convert it to 500 lines
now i changed a lot but its more like a mini game has to be
its 200 lines and now i still need to remove 100 lines that realy a problem

the ; counter its create a txt file named counter.txt
you just need to add this to your folder change the
STRING* filesearch = "main.c"; to your main project file
it does count even stuff if there are // ; ore ";"
it also doesnt include .fx yet but you could change it to
STRING* filesearch = "yourshader.fx";

hope it helps you

first of all...great idea for contest. you play by rules and fair. let's see who can make better thing with 100 ";". like maslon1 said...make all you can in wed and think about optimizing your code. every optimized line is a plus.

one question for @jcl and @pirvu...when someone gives you his project for contest, let him give you and full project folder where you can see if there's any anomaly.

or...everybody plays fair.

make one little bigger post with some definite rules.

Quoting flits.

Thank you, flits.

Don't worry - the projects have to be fully playable; otherwise, they will be rejected.

What means fully playable. What if I make a non interactive demo?

We'll make an exception for you :). I meant a fully running demo.

Entries ready: 3.
Work in progress entries: 2.
Freezed projects: 1 (ph_* madness - ph_poly never works)

Some questions:
1. Can I send screenshots here?
2. Can I send links to completed projects here?
3. If q2>no, where to send them? (manual says 'send to us', but where's us? [I guess, to George?])

1. You can post screenshots here if you want to, but they won't be collected. Please include them in the downloadable archive.
2. You can post links to completed projects here.
3. You can also email the projects (if they are small) to me using the email address that comes with each magazine or (if they are big) you can use a service like http://www.yousendit.com and then email me the link to the project(s).

That´s a nice idea for a contest. I know some more tricks to save semicolons but i am not sure yet if i will have enough time to take part.

Please post screenshots of your entries here Vadim! It would be interesting to see what kind of projects can be expected.
