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.

I'm ashamed to say, but I still haven't finished any of these games yet.
@Purainite: Yeah i know, but I found it awkward personally. Still thought it was fun to play.
@Kilin: Yes, definitely. A few of the games i tried a bunch of different things, EXCEPT for the one that worked lol.My gameplay doesn't need work, your playing of a game needs improvement.
Ok so if you plan on voting you have the until after this weekend.
Please do vote. I think you can appreciate the amount of effort the participants have put into these games, and seeing as you're part of their game making community the least you can do is actually play them and share your opinion so we can have a fair contest.And participants! You should definitely vote. You're being a little unfair to the ones who did vote. Even the ones who just voted for each other >_>(as if they actually thought I didn't expect them to do that)*rolls eyes*How much longer now? Is the blog title still accurate?
I really liked Zac's slenderman game, The Operator. That game was seriously the creepiest I've ever played. Eerier and more chilling than even Amnesia.
When I saw that the boy in the kitchen suddenly had a slenderman behing him with a hand on his shoulder? My heart stopped. Really nice work on the atmosphere, but the resolution and quality of the game sprites was detrimental to that atmosphere a bit.Also, I never managed to find the red house shown on the tape?Yeah, Zac's game scared the living horse shit out of me.
