Wow, that was unexpected! It works amazingly... especially because the bottom of the screen is exactly what I'm used to seeing! XD 

Increpare you are a genius, I bow down to you!

This is brilliant, however it was eery because you sound like a mix of myself and Graham Linehan.

Well, you get a lot of points for simulating an entire Windows desktop and having a clever frame, but why did you have a 'video' of 2:10 of nothing? Seems kind of odd and disappointing.

Hmmm? I don't quite follow.

Maybe he didn't realize he could control the car and/or didn't press space to begin.

it doesn't do anything  Huh? I've run the executable like six times. nothing happens. it appears in the taskbar for the tiniest amount of time, then nothing.

I figure it's supposed to show a fake desktop, as far as the images in the bmp folder show. Does it not work if you have a windows theme?

What version of windows are you running?  Themes shouldn't make a difference, it's a standard-enough fullscreen allegro game.  I doubt the problem would be with the sound libraries I'm using.  There's a possibility that if I recompile with a newer version of allegro that everything will suddenly begin to work.  Let me know anyway...I can compile a debug version to track down the problem if things keep on not working...

Oh?  Do you have any theories as to why this might be?

Cool!
At first i thought it just jacked my screen resolution Smiley

The pop ups reminded me of how i never seem to be able to fully get into a game.  Xbox "doofus is now online" pop ups, IM pop ups.  Virus database popups..   New email pop ups.. cell phone calls and text messages.   Its so tough to get immersed into a game. 

I tried to look around the pop ups. which is ridiculous!  reached for my mouse for a second too.

Where can I vote for whatever competition this game is in?

I would easily put this on my top 10 games of '08.

Well, pressing space won't do anything on a YouTube video. ...Obviously I realize that it may not be an actual YouTube video, as in, you know, hosted on YouTube...but basically it's a YouTube video.

So is it worth wasting copious amounts of time to win then?

Is it even possible to win?

I ask because the time limit makes me wonder if I can get to a goal by not crashing the whole game (even when that stupid cat thing happens).

I think media center keeps video memory allocated even when it's minimized.
