We are currently in the intermission period for the Crappy Gamez Xplosion competition, being organized (I use the term loosely :D) by Overkill.

The idea is to have two seperate one hour time periods in which to make a game. Most of the way through the first hour, we all realized just how short an hour is, so thefirst hour was extended to an hour and a half, and the second to two hours. While this isn't an official VERGE HOV compo, nor is it exclusively VERGE, there were a lot of Verge entries in the first compo, and it'd be great to see even more turnout for the second event!

The first hour's entries can be downloaded and played here:

The second competition block is going to be tonight at 7:00 to 9:00, EDT. You can still join in the fun! Track us down in #crappygamezxplosion on irc.esper.net.

UPDATE: The second competition block is now finished! The entries are available at the same place: http://ovk.actionsketch.com/1hrcompo/index.php

CrazyAznGamer: You should get IRC :) I like X-Chat2, it's pretty nifty. And free. And open source and stuff.

Woo! That's two people I know of now. I'm happy to hear I make games that are beatable even if I suck too much to beat them myself. :D

Big fan of ustor's game!

in all seriousness though, orange farmer and thrasher's color games were the best of the 2md competition. I don't mention ovk's 'my two bits' cause I think he cheated >=/

but then... for the first compo, it's all about fly swatter!

For anyone who is interested, I stayed up until 3 am last night finishing Tank Attack. Or at least... making it more finished. It's practically a game now!

I present: Super Tank Attack!

Interesting little tech demo there. Seems like it could be made into a complete fun little game with a few more similar days of effort, although just wandering around and shooting things quickly becomes boring for the time being. Although I got much pleasure out of pressing the fast forward button and having the enemies rain down upon me like the FF4 flare spell...
