Hi All, i'm trying to think of a little project i can undergo when im not working on Realm of Mordor, or, working on real-life stuff.
I'm not looking for a big rpg, im looking for a little game, for instance, car racing, boat racing, bombard size, somthing of that nature.
I'm wide-open for suggestions, i will work alone on this so don't bother asking to join the crew, just suggest, and if i use your suggestion i'll be sure to credit you.

I don't have a suggestion for subject matter, but you might enjoy working on BYONDscape's new 4K Challenge contest, which I plan to put up tonight. In a nutshell, the goal is to make a neat game whose total .dm file size is <= 4096 bytes. (No cheating by inserting code in the .dme file!) The deadline will be October 31, but the game doesn't have to have a Halloween theme.

Whoo, another 4k challenge! I'll see what I can do, I could post a soundless Snow Boarder (which is about 3.5k, and has 30k of sound, heh).

You can include the sound! The 4K limit applies only to the total size of the .dm files.

I'll close that little loophole right quick. Thanks!
