After starting off with a hiss and a roar things seem to have petered out somewhat, however what has been posted already is more than I would have hoped for.

How many people think they will have a game finished by the 31st?

Judging:
Forum poll unless someone wants to put some time into writing a voting thing like Java4K. I don't really care to much about having a winner and don't have enough free time to spend writing the page.

Hosting:
Will probably make a thread for the final submission where people can post a jar (preferably 1 per game) and some instruction text. I'll take them all and try to package them up into a single web page using some javascript to display the instructions for the currently selected game. I'll host the page on my site and anyone else can do the same.

I'll have something ready by then.

It's a pity there aren't more entrants (from the looks of things so far).  Come on people! Twenty-eight days is plenty long enough to knock together a 40x30 Pac-Man or Tetris!

Even though my entry isnt very good, I consider it finished enough for the contest.

Although I've known about the contest for months, I'm a lazy ass and began my project two days ago, so I probably won't make it soon enough... Should I add a journal just in case I get it done, or posting it somewhere around here before the finish date will do? I'll drop it here anyways even if I don't get it done in time if you don't mind, just in case somebody is interested.

Although it's a pretty experimental project, it's taking less time than I thought it'd take, so I might get it done. I'll try to make it as playable as posible before the finish date, even if some features are missing.

With any luck, I will too, but work is killing me, and I'm going out-of-town for a wedding this whole weekend... so I'll probably submit no earlier than a handful of hours before the due date.

Speaking of which; where's the submission thread? Or is it an email address?

That's the plan, I'll create a submit thread soon.
