I hope it doesn't contain too much code from your entry, though x.x

None of it is my entry. This was an example/test prog, so no worries ;)

If one can make a really polished simple game, can one win the grand prize...?

if said game astounded all those judging then it is possible, but considering the amount of work that has been put into some of the entries so far i rather doubt it

you can allways give it a try, why not, you'll see it. Or is this not something you are going to do? Is it a question for security reasons? that not somebody who came in lately and spent a very little time on coding his game will win the grand prize? I can't say it, but when the smallest game is the best, then that game will win the contest!
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!

If its super creative and unlike anything else out there now, and in addition very polished and fun/addicting, then yes definitely its possible.  I would say that even if its simple it can win, but we won't know until we see all the entries.  They are not really judged on how complex or how large they are, but more along the lines of creativity, enjoyability, and quality.

yes it is possible. It can be hard to compete against Starcraft with Arkanoid but if the Starcraft game has horrible controls, gameplay, runs slow and crashes every minute or so, the arkanoid game that is very polished with amazing controls and fancy features with moderately good graphics may be a good competitor. There's also the fact that besides judging, there will also be a poll that will be ran, where all Omnimaga the current forum members can vote. Everyone's different opinions may have unpredictable effects on the final results. Example, if someone absolutely hate strategy games he may be tempted to vote for something else.

lol well yesterday i finally got my engine pretty much up and running and so now i'm really excited. I will probably enter it in the contest if i can smooth out the bugs in time (considering i started the project like less than a week ago shouldn't be too hard ;) )

oh and quigibo, the new backup feature pretty much saved my life today. :DD

Nice to see the backup feature worked for you. HOWEVER, do not rely 100% on it. It saves your life most of the time, but here I really say "most of the time". One person had data corruption, so I still recommedn some regular backups on a computer or another calc from time to time. Good luck on your entry. :)

Actually, my corrupted back-up came from the fact I used the Instant Goto on a program over 7kb most likely, so if your source gets too big, I suggest splitting it into include files.


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.

Axe's Instant Goto. It's a known bug that it can corrupt programs over 7-8kb in size when you use it. Then, since I had the Auto-Backup feature on, I backed up the corrupted program.

I didn't knew Axe had instant goto O.o

Was it added recently? For me it always scrolled like in BASIC.

I recommend multiple files anyway, because otherwise the code gets friggin hard to read
