In celebration of the 50th newsletter, this month sees a one-off 50 line challenge. The rules are identical (Click Here for a reminder), but for the obvious - the 20 line limit is extended to 50 lines. So unleash your imagination and see what you can do with 50 lines and a one month deadline. Good luck, we will showcase anything worthy next issue, and throw a prize into the arena to whet your appetite.

This should be a cool competition, I'm definitely entering. Should we post in this thread or in the board as usual?

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons...for you are crunchy and good with ketchup.

Post your own thread, as people will want to feed back. But start it with "50 liner"

I anticipate that some of these entries are going to blow us away.

I'm unique, just like everybody else.

Newsletter says:
Quote: "Make a game with 50 lines or less and no media"

But in the original:
Quote: "4) External media cannot be larger than 200k in size UNCOMPRESSED."

The question is: Can I use media?

Let's set the date at Thursday 29th March, 11:59pm GMT. That gives myself and the TGC team a day or two to look at the entries.

So nothing was worthy to show?

We ran out of time because of the Nvidia competition results, I'll publish these results in the next newsletter.
