A server down shouldn't crash the game. Also, clicking localhost keeps crashing my game EVERY time. Localhost still needs a server. Run the game twice. Start one as a server and then connect to localhost with the other one. This is my first network game so some network things aren't perfectly smoot...

Boromir, I've lost one game by you, but then had 3 consecutive crashes trying to connect to your server again. Don't know what's going on there. Ran both x86 and x64 versions as administrator, x64 always failed, x86 connected ONCE. I have Windows 8.1. Don't know what's going on there. I do think it...

No facebook but I've skype.

Try the x86 version, and make sure it's not in the downloads folder. Sometimes networking gets blocked if it's in there.
If that doesn't work you might have to compile from source.

Sure. I've hosted so you can connect to basic-warfare.net in the game.

Erm, single player mode?

It's not really a single player game though you can host a game with only one player slot and add a bot.

Well, sorry for assuming anything, but i got that impression from your comment that even 4th of February was time enough. And now you have an extra week. Would hate to see another strong entry dropping off round one, for sure. Sorry, didn't mean it like that. :) I should make the deadline fine. It'...

The Secret Gallery by Zamaster/Mambazo
Boromir by Basic Warfare
Programs of Legend by gothon
ChangeV's entry?

Well, I don't know about "Boromir by Basic Warfare". :)
I'm running it a bit tight on the deadline here but mine should be ready soon.

@Landeel
I played your demo. Looking very nice!
I'm a little confused by the weapon repeat rate though.
If you hold the fire key down it's slower than spamming the key in rapid succession. Is this intentional?

@Lachie
I should be finished by the 4th deadline as well, but I don't have anything against extending the deadline or having an after competition.

Really nice! It's looking very on theme!!

Very cool!
A few file names weren't right for case-sensitive linux though.

These ... ...should be.

Wow! Super-nice! I really like it - surprising with the graphics level, you have done a great job... I like the 'Assembly Age, then the 'Quick Basic Age"... I like how the progression through languages is... you have done a good job here! Thank you! I'm still working on a singleplayer ai and a...
