Rules
-One script file, 1kb max size. 512bytes if game uses the map engine.
-2 maps max (if using the map engine), with a map size of 20x20 max, and 16x16 tile size max, 16 tiles a map max. (On entering map and entity scripts are considerd part of the main script, so no using them to cram extra data in)
-No more than 100kb of images (spritesets are considerd images) and another 100kb of sounds/music. You can use one font and window style regardless of size, but no cramming non-font/window stuff in them (ie, cramming all of your graphics into the font)
-No system scripts, or any other pre-made scripts.
-No using files (raw or otherwise) to cram extra code
The contest begins NOW, and ends the 21st. E-mail your entrys to spherecompo56@yahoo.com
Games will be uploaded and posted here courtesy of Flikky.
After the compo ends you'll be given until the 25th to vote in a thread I will start in the sphere.sf.net forums, even if you didn't participate you may vote for your favorite 3 entrys.
Multiple entrys are allowed, you may have any size of team you want. Entrys that go over said limits will be penalized based on how far over they are. You can ask any questions about the contest to the e-mail address or ask SDHawk on irc.esper.net #sphere
Have fun!

Ok, it has been awhile since we've had a contest. Most of the time we don't get a very good turnout, but this one is so simple it won't take much time for anyone to enter.
Unlike most contests, this one has one goal in mind: Do as much as possible with as little as possible.
The following limitations will be in place:
-One script file, 1kb max size. 512bytes if game uses the map engine.
-2 maps max (if using the map engine), with a map size of 20x20 max, and 16x16 tile size max, 16 tiles a map max. (On entering map and entity scripts are considerd part of the main script, so no using them to cram extra data in)
-No more than 100kb of images and another 100kb of sounds.
(Note: It's encouraged to not even bother using the map engine)
The winner will be determined by e-mailing me your favorite 3 entries, your first choice gets 3 points, second 2, third 1. Scores will be tallied up and a winner announced.
Now, I'm more than happy to run this contest...but first I need to know if anyone wants to enter it. So reply to this news entry if you're intrested (and any comments), if four or more people want to enter I'll start it. (Probably a week-long time limit)
