Third place is still open to a British game. Caz is insisting the two games with Sheep win.
How about a former British colony? Can that count?
Hey my game contain sheep. except it a ghost in disguised.

And also does anyone played Town of Illustive episode 1. how was it?
Because I didn't get a few reply about the game. (Except for one from our facebook fan page)

And I also want to see while voting isn't started if you going to vote for it.

@Jomar: You got a review from Fomar already, with a video and all.

My take: you've certainly improved a lot, but that's all I can say. To me it's not a GOOD (read here "enjoyable") game, but it's a decent game. The problem is that it's not too engaging or interesting.

Still, take from it that it shows you've come a long way! That's no mean feat.

(But no, I wouldnt say it's my choice of vote)
Not that it matters for the contest I suppose, but I updated my game and posted a separate download link if you want to play it for non-contest judging reasons.

Well it really took a long way to go around and be familiar with RPG Maker.
Since I got a ton of stories floating around in my head which is such a waste if I didn't use it in any form like games. Well If I join a team next time I be happy to show what I written up since If I want to make a new story It will take 1-2 hours to come up with one.
Almost done! Just have to finish up on TCS... I would hate of seen how long it would of been, if it was made in more than three days >.<

Also does anyone know what happend to dark orphanage? The gamepage has gone kaput.

It'd probably only have ~three more dungeons, but be more polished overall, and possibly faster because of it.

I'm downloading the entries to play as we speak. I found that Kin's has been taken down, but supposedly it'll be supposedly re-released @ an unconfirmed time in the future. Thus, I'll keep it in my AHE playlist for now ...

Also, the link for the Limbus download page is dead and needs to be updated.

FINAL EDIT: So I've got the 26 entries listed locked and ready to go. I will fish out the other 4?? mentioned in the posts once I'm done with these first.
So... Is it ok to make changes to the download now?
I got some stuff I wanna change.

I´m kinda confused because the link works (at least for me)
I also checked the download on the game page and it also works.
Maybe it was a server problem? (just want to know because in case of doubt I´ll do what´s necessary to reupload again)

I just tried it and now the download page is displayed (before it showed one of those "there was a problem, somebody @ RMN already knows and should be working @ it" . So it was a RMN issue. That said, I clicked the normal link and it gave me one of those "download limit" pop up screen that RMN displays. Instead I chose to download via Dropbox and am currently downloading. So everything seems to be OK after all ...
Yeah me and StarSkipper have finished and Caz has downloaded them all, so feel free to update etc.
