Congratulations to everyone for taking part and for doing such great work!

Also, if anyone hasn't had a chance to see the game in progress with past winners' sprites actually working, check it out here! (http://www.maphart.com/uploads/InfestStation/Build/InfestStation_0_06.html) (note: Unity web plug-in required.)

With such small attendance for this mini, I think we're going to take a small breather from the sprite minis and not start one up tomorrow as I've done with these past couple. Some have also suggested that we not always make the minis the exact same theme so Maph and I have been brainstorming some radically different ideas to possibly try and totally change up the next mini and make it a lot different. Stay tuned...! :)

I wish I had the time to learn sprites... congrats to all 4 who participated... I'm sure all of your hard work will come in handy when iPhone games take over the market.

Walrus, you are first again! Congratulations!
Oddin, my congratulations for you too!
Walrus, thank you very much for these minis! :)

[Oddin]

Congratulations are indeed in order.
walrus, vesta - I'll get you guys next time ;)
nether - shame lack of time didn't allow you to tweak it all the way, but a great entry nonetheless :thumb:

Hope next time more people will jump in. For those of you that don't know what goes into this here's a quick layout of my anim I did a day after submitting my finals (just couldn't stop messing with the damn thing :) ) - it's a bit big I know...

Anyways I would recommend this to everybody - it's great fun and you learn so much along the way.

Although the number of entries are somewhat lacking, the quality of the entries is definitely not. Good work to all of the entries.

Congrats to all the winners! It was a fun run. Hope I can devote more time and effort next time, since I really liked the comp. I'm a sucker for old school pixel game art.

Thanks for the honorary mention. :)
