Welcome
This is excellent.
BTW, any way you could compress that zip a bit more? It''s 9mb, and I''m on 56K... perhaps providing an alternate .RAR file would be smaller.

Yes, I am going to change the models and textures.
Great idea.
So, what''s been changed and/or planned since you first started
the contest idea? As fun as sorting through the first thread
would be, it''d be nice to know what''s up from the person who''s
running it. ~.^
Still a great idea, btw. ^_^

Nothing, really. The downloadable demo is conceptually the same as the actual contest. There are going to be a few differences, like the bot models, some of the arena dynamics (i.e. bots don''t run through rocks), and so on, but everything is the same. This forum will just make it easier to report problems, issues, new information, and any possible future contests.
Mr. Khawk, it might be a good idea to move your dl link to a forum-visible place so that people-on-the-go like myself can easily see a demo of GameDev: Arena. It''s tedious and possibly turn-off to look through 5 pages of thread posts to find the center of the discussion. I''m dling it now and it is huge! I''m just suggesting b/c you may attract more contestants if you have the tools/info readily available. OTHERWISE GREAT CONTEST!!!
Shouldn''t that other thread have just been moved into this form from the announcements instead of closing it?
