Well, looks like the final tally is up there in the Submitted Games thread (Let Me Know if your entry isn't there).

58 Entries Total.

WOW.

Cool that there were so many. I'm looking forward to doing my peer-reviewing now, as I could only get the vaguest idea about most of the other games being written.

As a second time contestant, I found this one interestingly different. This game was harder to write, perhaps because the ingredients didn't seem as quirky or grabby or something as last year's. However, the game ended up a lot more polished and more playable than the first one.

I'm also definitely going to publish this year's entry. In fact, I thought on Friday that the game would be way better with a bunch of research and info about the historical setting (the first towns after the invention of agriculture). No chance of doing that during the contest, of course. But I am looking forward to getting this done for a published edition.

So, thanks for running the contest, Andy.

Heya,

I'm seeing some peopel post links to their games. Is that an okay thing to do? Or do you want us to hold off, Andy?

Peace,

Sure, that's fine. About 80% of the games are already posted to 1km1kt already, and those will be the ones used for judging here though. So if you want to post a link to your game, search 1km1kt for it first (just drop in 1-2 words in the title), and if it doesn't pop up feel free to post a link to it from elsewhere.

Review packets will be ready and available within 48 hours.
