I'm having problems with Ikkerens' entry... Nothing happens when I try to run it.

Splut quits when your calculator doesn't support 15Mhz mode, this basically the excludes the TI83

Quote
Splut: Other than avoiding the falling blocks, I couldn't figure out the objective. The flag is probably the goal, but without being able to move the blocks, I'm stumped.

The blocks will always fall above your smiley, and you can climb 1 block higher. For ex. level 1: You need to build a stairs to get to the flag, since you need to climb over the floating block.

variety wise, there are 20 different sets of 5 tile obstacles. Around 1337 points, the height of each 5 block set has the potential to change. Around 2100, the graphics change,your ship begins to move at full speed, at 3000 all the obstaclesets are unlocked, and around 4200 the gfx change again. If you ever get to 6666, (which I haven't so far lol) the grayscale turns off and it goes even faster.

HoMM: The graphics are very nice looking. I'm getting RAM clears when I battle, so I'm not sure on the gameplay.

ouch! that's not what I meant it to do :P
coul you give me a little more info in a PM (for keeping this topic clean), please?
everytime that I was down, you would always come around, and get my feedback on the ground. (modified part from 'Seasons in the sun')

No matter how many errors are bothering you, always try to stay rel-Axe!

i'm having some issues with jump; it looks like the square landed, but then it just falls through the line and I die....

well, can't you send the apps o your calc? just Setup and HoMM? it would be a real pitty when you couldn't use my game. it's not completely HoMM 3 of course, but it resembles to it. when I showed the game for the first time to my classmate, he said: 'hey, that looks like HoMM3! do you know that game?' lol

me too. it seems to me that you can better jump as late as possible, and land further on the block, and not just on the border.

These issues aren't really "issues", just you're not jumping onto the block.  You must have the bottom of your square on top of the top of the bars.  It's coded this way because if you land in the middle of the bar you stay "in" the bar, so it looks really odd. :)
I'll be providing an updated version that makes pausing easier in about 5 minutes. :)

Thanks for the compliments. :)

T'would be nice if this judging topic would contain screenshots of each entry.

Good luck to all participants!

Here's a screenie of Blur.
I should really make a topic for it, since I intend to improve it in the future.

Btw, my best score for lobster mode is about 1264. Anyone beat that yet?

Edit: Lol, I just noticed I have 404 posts!

Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

Yeah I've thought about that but got worried people would not even bother trying them and simply vote based on what they see in the screenshot, not to mention I did not have time to make screenshots. I ended up staying awake until like 5 AM I think to post that poll x.x

Yeah i agree, people would probably just vote on eye candy instead of actual playability and bugs and everything else

Mines4: Classic minesweeper clone. The undo feature is convenient. Allowing the player to hit a mine on the first selection should be changed.

Thanks for the feedback!  I'll definitely try adding an implementing your suggestion.

~~~~~~~~

My general impressions of the games so far:

Parsec:
It gets a bit boring after awhile, but has lots potential and possible areas for expansion.

Simul:
Difficult to play on Wabbitemu, so I'm going to wait until I can try it on the real calc.
I like the contrast adjust, and it seems like the kind of game I could easily get hooked on.

Blur:
Very twitchy.  Lobster mode?  This must be a meme I don't understand.

Mansion Impossible:
Erm... pressing the buttons don't seem to do anything, and some of the text seems to be broken.

Splut:
I'm pretty sure I should be able to beat this, if I were smart enough...
It gave me an ERROR: LINK when I tried to quit.  Is this expected?

Heros of Might and Magic:
I'm pretty sure that I missed following an instruction somewhere, but it seems pretty interesting.  I'm not sure how the battle system works, though.

THEaxeGAEpack:
Falldown was hard, but I liked the 3d pong.  Didn't seem too buggy to me, but I wasn't very good at it, anyways (I kept dying, my own fault).

Advanced Wars TI:
Not sure if I really understand how to fire a gun, but it was pretty fun.  The arrow keys feel a little laggy, though.  Do I have to alternate between 2nd and enter?  Couldn't I just use one?

Wacky Fun Random Numbar Generator:
...
?

Space Dash:
I liked the graphics!  The gameplay gets a little bland after awhile, though.

Axe Platformer:
It took me a while to get the hang of jumping well, but it was fun.  For whatever reason, the gameplay felt almost slippery, like the character was about to slide at any moment...

Jump!:
Didn't I see this in a video somewhere? 
My website: Currently boring.

Projects:
Axe Interpreter
   > Core: Done
   > Memory: Need write code to add constants.
   > Graphics: Rewritten.  Needs to integrate sprites with constants.
   > IO: GetKey done.  Need to add mostly homescreen IO stuff.
Croquette:
   > Stomping bugs
   > Internet version: On hold until I can make my website less boring/broken.
