Is there a price for the winner who wins that contest?

There are several better reasons to join a contest.
- You have fun to make a Xmas-/winter game concept
- You'll learn a lot finishing a small game in time
- You'll earn respect (from us) if you finisch a funny game
- You'll repect yourself more with a finished funny game
- You have a handmade present for your friends!!!

- and - OK - the winner gets a €15.- voucher(code) from amazon.de (maybe not much but hey - it's a price!)

Sounds nice

I'll look what I can do

One question: Do I need Com or better for a screen saver?

You need to publish an exe to create a screensaver.
There are several threads about how to make a screensaver (just search for "screensaver" in the forum) - but Com is OK.

You can even use lite-C free.
The screensaver header from EvilSOB is good: threat

Well I'm going to try and come up with something for this. Actually only posting to give me a little extra push to actually DO something

Welcome on board!
Every reason to motivate yourself is a good reason

I'll see about this, since I want almost everything on Amazon

hmmm... personally no fan of screensavers really... I prefer if it would be a game.. then again, a random screensaver would be fun as well

i'm thinking Rudi assets here could be a great start for everyone!
