Did I receive your entry? – PLEASE READ

I’ve had a problem with receiving a few entries, so I wanted to make sure everyone knew if I had received their entry or not. Please read to make sure I got your entry!

The following need to RESUBMIT:

  1. Toggle
  2. Rocket Santa
  3. Peg Puzzle
  4. PBM Cube
  5. 4k Shoot Em Up

Basically, your entry went silently into my spam box before I could get them. I believe I have the issue resolved now, and apologize profusely for the bother. :(

The following are confirmed received:

  1. Bovis Abyssus
  2. Whac A Mole
  3. Attack of the Rage Beast
  4. Minex
  5. 4k Pillars
  6. Hammy Wars

To be honest, when I started this competition I told myself I’d be happy to have 3 entries. Not only are there a lot of competitors, the competition is FIERCE. Some of these entries are truly amazing despite the draconian constraints.

The quality of execution and the joy of seeing how awesome these games are means I’ll definitely be hosting more 4k competitions in the future! I will be looking for more ways to sweeten the prize pot on future competitions because these games are simply amazing! :)

  1. Received A-steroids4k.


  2. Just the names of games are exciting! I cannot wait to play them.



  3. Othniel

    Sounds fantastic — can’t wait to play the entries! :)


  4. Received Falling With Style.



  5. If it was going just on names, “Attack of the Rage Beast” has got to walk this comp.

    ( Which means I didn’t do it, or does it… ? )

    ( I didn’t btw, just wanted to keep the mystery going a little while longer ).



  6. JP

    I agree I can’t wait to play them. Sorry to ask this as the first comp is not even finished, but as I didn’t manage to enter, I hope there will be another comp in a few months ?


  7. Definitely. Someone I know wants to run a comp with a slightly different theme so I want to coordinate so that there’s no overlapping schedule, but there will definitely be another 4k coming soon. :)



  8. bL

    I just resubmitted. I hope I’m not late?:)


  9. Thanks bL. Sorry I missed the first submission.



  10. c4k

    I had sent my entry late last night. Seen anything for C4K?


  11. No C4k.. Please resend.



  12. c4k

    Resent. Sorry for the delay on the resend.



  13. BillAndTed

    I’m very much looking forward to seeing the other games. I’ve played mine so much now that I hate it! :)



  14. TypeRacer

    hey did you recieve typeRacer?


  15. TypeRacer was received. Yes. :)



  16. Just Wondering

    When does the voting begin?


  17. Voting for audience prize will begin as soon as the 1st and 2nd place are announced on Friday.



  18. bL

    You mean there isn’t any voting for the non-audience prize?:)


  19. No.. There’s voting. It’ll just start after 1st/2nd place is announced. :) I want to be able to lift the gag orders so people can actually start talking about their games without worrying about jeopardizing their entry.



  20. DooWhopp

    @bL: I think you’re actually correct — urbansquall is playing the role of benevolent dictator in being the (sole?) judge who decides the non-audience prizes (1st and 2nd place) — the public voting for the audience prize begins on Friday after the announcement.


  21. DooWhopp is correct. I misread your comment bL. :)

    Also, I decided to recruit some other judges in order to make the 1st/2nd place less at my mercy. :)


  22. Oops! Read about the problems with the upload too late — ie read the email on 12 March for Mar 9 after the cut-off date. Soooo, I missed out on the contest but my submission was 3.13KB and folks can view the protected version at mochi, kongregate or new grounds.

    Thanks for sponsoring this contest … this was fun trying to squeeze a playable game into 4KB.
