Weekend of ZZT

In your adventures through the Town of ZZT, you have been captured by the evil Dungeon Guards. Not recognizing you as the great escape artist you are, the guards have thrown you in the Dungeons of ZZT.

I worked for exactly 24 hours straight, and my game turned into an interactive movie where the main character was a superhero. Then I remembered The Rose and hit myself. I quit. But I'll put what I finished in the 24 hours in zztv9... or whatever number we're on. The art was quite original and well drawn. It would have won.

A question for MadTom: For future reference: In a really slow month, could a 24HOZZT game (or WoZ game if we have another one) win MadTom's pick. Or in any month for that matter. Because I put alot of effort into my entry and told myself it could win. I only wish I could have been right for once.

If you submit the game to the 24HoZZT judges for review and subsequently release it on Z2, no. If you begin a game under 24HoZZT but do not enter it, and then release it later to Z2 (à la Commodore's Wasteland), yes.

I might make exceptions in a desperate month, though, as usual.

That actually might happen to this game as well if I don't work my ass off in the next 12 hours.

My game has been submitted. It turned out a hell of a lot better than I thought it would when it comes to graphics, but it was below my original expectations with gameplay.

Anyhoo, I worked on this game a lot, now it's time to focus my attention on larger projects.
I did!--I did!--You're quicker than your friend... Now for a handful of guilders I happen to have a private and uncut performance of The Rape of the Sabine Women-or rather woman, or rather Alfred--. Get your skirt on, Alfred--

Gyaaaa. There's no fucking way I'm gonna be able to finish my game in three hours. Much as I don't want to do this, I'm gonna drop out. =( =(

Did Mooseka just say that the entries are due TOMORROW? As in TUESDAY at noon? As in 96 hours of ZZT? Because I don't want submit my entry now if I suddenly get an extra day.

Due to my time mismanagement, I never got a chance to fully play-test my game. Don't be surprised if you run into stupid mistakes and fatal errors! HAVE FUN!

Hey! My game isn't on the site! Did Mooseka get it? Because the stupid upload script refused my game. Now that I think about it, maybe the problem was that I named the game RYANFERNEAU_GIVETREE.ZIP in all capital letters, and the script was only checking for .zip, not .ZIP. I hate that. But I DID send it as an attachment to Mooseka's E-mail address BEFORE THE DEADLINE, so I will be really mad if all my work was for nothing.
