CloseI'm glad to see a few others decided to review these games as well. Thanks to everyone who did. I'll hopefully have the last few reviews out in a day or so.
A few people have said my reviews for these games seem unduly harsh for games made in such a short amount of time, but a lot of these games turned out quite good so I don't think the time limit was as much of an inhibiting factor as people think.
However, regardless of this I do feel turning in anything at all was an accomplishment.

woo, free review!
Edit: Hopefully the judges won't run into the slight bug I found in the game after I submitted it.

I have begun submitting reviews for these entries. Every qualifying entry will get one from me. The order in which the will be released is completely random, based entirely on my whims, so if your game doesn't have one yet, check back later/in a day or so. PLEASE NOTE that these reviews are based entirely on my subjective experience, not the experiences of all the judges, and do not necessarily reflect who is going to win the contest (there is additional criteria to take into account for judging that is not present in these reviews.)
Thank you for your patience.
Thank you for your patience.
Alright, after reviewing the first entry, there are 4 more games left that made it up to my mountain of interest. I guess I will check out ''Castle Chase'' next. The screens look quite cute.
I still have no idea why coy didn't make a game profile for his entry. Does he have one pending or something?
Congrats to those who submitted something (cue in one-man standing ovation)!
EDIT: Since there aren't nearly as many actual submissions compared to the number of entries, I'll be playing and providing feedback for all games! To some of you, I have already provided some. In some cases, I might just write a review, which will remain unrated until official results are announced. Just give me some time to go through the entries.

Nah you're good. You needed to actually submit it to the event, but I took care of it for you. (You should be able to select even pending game downloads as entries for events)

What the!
Why isn't my game listed? :V
It's because I submit to the site, NOT to the event. w00t!
Which WIP fixed with magical site admin powers.

comment=30925comment=30902As long as you submitted before the deadline you have nothing to worry about.
I submitted the game yesterday, but it still hasn't been accepted.
I hope I don't miss the deadline over this. >:\
Wait... I think I may have misunderstood.
The game was submitted to RMN before the deadline. It is currently pending.
So... when it's accepted will you guys review it? Or am I out because it was not accepted by RMN in time?
Well, if I knew this contest existed a few days ago (was busy irl) I may have entered.
this game wont bee ready in time. although it will be finished. so this event got us to do something anyway.

I'm just here to announce that I am dropping out as well. Real life got in the way (again). (I was secretly counting on the extra week that was planned for this event that we discussed in the Staff forum).
Sorry to those of you (3 or 4 people?) that were looking forward to my shitty first RMVX game!
