Make a game in one HALF hour. Just for fun.
Use of the brutal inbuilt platform engine is encouraged. Re purposing old resources is also encouraged. See what you can come up with in 30 minutes!

Is it cheating to start thinking of ideas in case this gets tried again?

Hmm, I like this idea, because it gives me an excuse to make something that looks awful and plays worse!

If you put a million monkeys at a million keyboards, one of them will eventually write a Java program.
The rest of them will write Perl programs.

here's a mock-up of a game another TDC user and I were considering as an entry for the 20-Event game compo, and it was made in roughly a half hour. you're a farmhand feeding animals and cleaning up after them. the game restarts if you don't feed the animals or if they walk in too much of their own poo.

I made something else...
I built a editor to make text adventures in batch, simple menu based ones.
I'm going to make a more complicated one later, with an inventory and string parsing.
But here's what I have so far:
http://jfile.us/371125d
Run the program, and click "build and test" to play.
The actual editor only took about 40 minutes to make, and is only 15 events long.
I dare someone else to make a cool text adventure with it! Edited by UrbanMonk

Half an hour? You lot are amateurs. Try four minutes less.

4 more minutes equals 4 times the playability. Do the math(s) Noodleman!
