There'll be at least one submission from a project I've been working on. Possibly a second if I can hunt down someone for permissions cos its a port and I'd like sign off from the original dev.

I was hoping to do a really fast project this year, but don't think I'll make the deadline.

Don't hold out for me though.

Is there an official way to enter the contest? My entry is almost complete, but I'm not sure where to go to cross the i's and dot the t's.

slembcke, it's probably the same as last year: http://nesdevcompo.nintendoage.com/rule ... submission

I'll update soon regarding submission. To discourage early submissions I usually wait till the last week. Otherwise I have to deal with a bunch of people resubmitting with changes etc. I'll be sure to post everywhere and make it obvious what is required.

But yes, it will be the same as last year. If you want to start getting a description.txt file based on this template started check it out here: http://nesdevcompo.nintendoage.com/file ... iption.txt

Sorry for the double post, I've added the submission details on the 2018 page. Same as last year!

Phew.
Submitted ours a little bit ago. Will post a proper thread in a while. Giddy to see what other submissions show up.

Hey Everyone, I've sent out all the emails for the voting. I decided to use a spreadsheet format this year, which turned out to be a lot of extra work, but hopefully it will improve the overall experience. I've left room to comment on each of the voting categories, as well as a large field for any general comments.

Here is a link to view the master copy for anyone interested: Compo2019

Ah dang, messed up some conditional formatting... a costly mistake @ 13 entrants x 13sheets. Estimate it will take me 5.5 hours... So in other words, it isn't getting done this year Basically it was supposed to turn the cell red if you put a value greater than 10 or less than 0. Somehow when I changed it for for the one >20 it also applied this to the >10 fields.

Awesome. Looks great. Thanks for all the work you put into this. Definitely wouldn't have as many cool NES projects out there if it wasn't for you.

Judging sheets look excellent. Thanks for that extra work.

Did everybody's sheet come pre-filled with their own game given full marks? Heh. Took me a few seconds to figure out everybody got their own spreadsheet. At first I thought it was a shared sheet and that the first reviewer played my game first and thought it was the bees' knees. Which seemed flattering, but unlikely... lol

Can't wait to play through all the games tonight.

Is there a compilation ZIP of all the entries?

I got the zip file emailed directly to me.
