@Spring & Chasersgaming: Don't go too hard on yourselves! I started making games when I was 11 and I can tell you it took at least 8 years before I made anything that was even remotely good. There's so much that goes into making a game, it takes a long time to get a handle on all the pieces and even then I'd say it's never something you really master. Even the industry greats all have at least one or two turds* under their belt. As Chasersgaming says, the important thing is to learn what you can from the messes and keep trying.
ps If you need help testing something, feel free to PM me, happy to lend a hand.
* I don't condone potty talk, but 'turd' is absolutely an official industry term. :)
Wow, I can't believe I missed this entite contest! I literally had no idea it was going on until today. I really got to learn to scroll down a bit when viewing the main page!
anyway, lots of awesome submissions, great work everyone!
Yeah, I hate to condone cussing, but Spring is dead on! Can anyone recommend a good free tracker or something for KiluaBoy to use?

fantastic! Just looking at the previews, I can almost hear someone shouting 'The British are coming, the British are coming!' Great work! :)

Nice! This is actually a tough effect to pull off in a looping sound. It's easy to create a sense of motion in with a quick progression, but doing it in a loop is tricky, at least for me anyways. Great work!

I'd definitely vote for using itch.io again, I thought their system worked really well last year.
All the rule changes sound good!
Really looking forward to this! Got a few ideas percolating in my head, can't wait to get started on them. :)
Thanks, that really is a great resource!
and for anyone out there thinking those fish aren't wild and crazy enough for their tastes, try this one out:

haha, no worries, it still came out sounding great!
oddly enough I have a bad habit of always trying to use this crummy C64 drum kit I got for fruity loops.
as a matter of fact, I literally stopped in the middle of typing this and made some nasty awful track with it.
I'd share, but OGA doesn't take audio files in comments and it's definiltey not worthy of a submission! ;)
I can't help it, I just love the way that kit sounds even though objectively I know it is awful.
this is amazing!
