Only 50 more days until the deadline! No pressure or anything.

How are all your cases coming along?

Despite working up a lot (a lot!) of art for my entry, and building an intro with a ton of fades and timed frames, I'm afraid I'm going to have to drop. :oops: :oops: :oops: I've got a few too many other responsibilities going on right now, sure, but the main reason is that I just cannot for the life of me make this thing theme-relevant while still being, I dunno, anything. More stuff just keeps creeping in and making the central plot unsatisfying, and the gameplay is barely interactive at all. Hopefully others can work up something stronger.

On the upside, I suppose the entrants pool is now a little more thematically accurate...

I'm behind schedule, but still in it. I'm still in the planning phase, but the idea is taking shape well!

There are exactly three weeks remaining until the deadline! If you're stuck in the house like I am, this is the perfect time to get this done! Type, type, type!

Yeah, this is my cue to stop procrastinating. Goal for tonight is to finally finish the outline. We'll see if I get it done.

It ended up taking a day more than I thought, but outline is done. Scripting starts tomorrow. Time to make up for lost time!

Now that fades have finally been added to the editor, I am now requiring all entrants to include at least 500 in each entry, or face disqualification. I require fades. Give me fades.

Good luck, and happy April Fools Day!

I don't mean to alarm all of you, but there is now just one week remaining until the due date. If you probably won't finish (believe me, I've been there), now would be a good time to find a stopping point and start polishing what you've got. Good luck to everybody!

I was wondering what came of AwesomeYears.

Well, now we're up to four, maybe? I'm not sure if CardiaX or armenator plan on submitting anything. They've been quiet.

Woah, surprise entry. Wasn't expecting that. As if I couldn't get more excited to start playing the entries.

...And, tomorrow and the day after will be a lot of case competition crunch as I deal with some last annoying things, which I really should not have procrastinated on. Ah well.

How are things for the other entrants?

Things are progressing here, and the pieces are coming together well, but I put myself and AwesomeYears very far behind, so the next two days will be very rushed as well.

But hey, I get to use fades now, which is nice.

Also, I can confirm that the.armenator will not be submitting anything. I have no information about CardiaX.

She hasn't logged on since Mar. 27, so I'm doubtful.

Heh. I'm solo, and you have a team of two. Three is indeed company.
