So why are you announcing the compo now, and not announcing the theme til the compo is technically half-over? I find it fun to participate in compos like this, just an excuse to make a game, so I'll think about it...

There is a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.

I have announced the comp much earlier than announcing the theme, so that this gives all those participating a fair chance. If I had announced the theme now, then those joining in late would have less time to start working on their game.
For those willing to participate, I will soon announce 5 themes and one of them will be selected as the theme for the First Competition.

I have updated the first post with the probable themes for the competition. The themes are also available on the forum. I think you might find something nice to make a game from. Another 15 days and the final theme will be announced. |

The First Competition has now been closed. Only a single entry was received and will win the prize by default.
The $20 did not seem to entice many to take part in the competition. I guess its the recession effect.
Notwithstanding the turnout, I will soon announce the Second Competition.

Well, I had a feeling that there would be just a few entries. I did not expect it to be just one.
Another $20 would be up for grabs, very soon. I need to dole out the cash to the winning entry which will happen in the next two days.
After Easter, I will announce the Second Competition.
