No turning back now.

Yes you can:

Not that you should anyway. :o

Well, since one of the purposes of these hacks is to provide motivation to finisha game... I think that's a feature, not a bug .

If I were to start one, I'd call it NutsHack. 8-)

I forgot what mine were already but after reading that I'm sure it's not too bad :P

My wishes are pretty stupid too, but at least they are not coding related.

Maybe I should code my game in BASIC. One of the variants which has no local variables.

Febreze (and other air fresheners actually) is just below perfumes/colognes, and that's just below dead skunks in terms of smells that offend my nose.

I thought of starting already with some generic Christmassy framework for a game. Fonts, graphics, sfx, UI, music...

I had a similar idea, to make a bunch of random christmasy graphics for everyone to use. The idea remains is stasis...

I'm doing the same as I'll be pressed on time the last few days so I need a little headstart to increase the chances of completion. Is it okay to use assets from other compos, for example Assemblee?

If someone creates a game where you control a flying santa sleigh, complete with reindeer, I'll play it ;D

But but but... then my game will be mute and consist of abstract primitive shapes and colours. How will I ever capture the Christmas spirit? :'(

I have it. I also installed the latest stable version of allegro 5 (5.0.5), but still no luck. I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.8.

You must stream mod files. Loading them as samples won't work.

Just so you guys know my internet connection has just gone off and I'm hoping it will be back on soon so I won't jump out but if there is no input from me by the time it starts then I won't be updated as much. However I shall be able to check via my phone and get the requirements and make the game whilst not online. I'll just lend the internet from someone to upload it just like I have to post this :D

Hope too see you all soon :D
