OK, for those expecting to win $1000 - which toads are you licking? I'm not trying to sell you anything. I gain nothing if you take part (in fact, keep reading, I lose a buck). I won't own anything you make, it's yours. HUNDREDS of people take part in the most famous game comp, Ludum Dare - they don't offer anything at all except the fun of taking part. If you want prizes, give as you wish to receive. If you're in it for the money, you don't deserve anything anyway.

Sorry the post is currently unfinished, literally took me the last 2 hours to get this far
I know that voting is mandatory for participants, but are you going to make playing every entry mandatory as well?
Edit: Shift sprints in my game, I forgot to put that into the controls. It was 5am when I wrote those so I forgot about it.Also, how are our votes added up? Are all 4 we nominate worth the same? Or is our #1 worth 4 points, out #2 worth 3, #3 worth 2, #4 worth 1 or some kind of similar system?I don't think I'm making it mandatory to vote anymore. But it is highly recommended.
And you don't have to play all the entries to vote, either. I couldn't get two of them to work properly, and some of them require installing things.17 entries! 28 participants! (whoever Carrick, Allen, Cody, Gabby, Manuel, Jorden, and Josh are) Woohoo!
Candy Rush uses an installer, but it runs for me, here's a screenshot.A friend of mine just discovered an error. It's not that serious… it's likely that most people could play though the game and not discover it… I only added one line of code to fix it. Would you mind if I re-uploaded my game?
Also, do all the entrants HAVE to vote?Ok go for it
Done, also I edited my previous comment asking if it entrants were forced to vote.
Not anymore they don't
Mega's game just made my knees shake.
Congratulations to all the entrants! Couldn't get my shit together for this one, but it is definitely inspiring to see such a great turnout.
