That’s the message I hope to read alongside the actual spyparty.exe!

This game’ll be fun when I get to L.A.N Test it! :D

Next year… someone needs to invent that time-machine for me!

It’s going to be a long time before a real “demo”, but I’ll do a big beta at some point for tuning, and I’ll post invites on the blog, Twitter, and Facebook. Next year sometime probably.

Weirdly, you can update the build any time. They don’t promise to always use the latest, but that seems fair.

I don’t think I have a chance at the grand prize, it’s too early and rough. But I think I have a shot at getting nominated for Design and for the “Nuovo” award, which is kind of for innovation. Cross your fingers!

Good luck on the challenge. So are you going to be judged on the version you submitted or will you be able to send updates before the final judging?

Seems all good and fine to me. 1 thing to bear in mind though, I read on another indie game forum that applied to IGF couple of years ago (node-def) that the jury had comments on the accessibility of the game and the learning curve. I was kinda surprised at that, cause the game was relatively easy to figure out, but apparently IGF, at least in that year, made a big point out of that, so if, by any chance, you don’t get main prize, which I would find surprising, it’s perhaps the accessibility thing.

And well, you’ll pick up that 100k on indie game challenge next year I’m sure!
