Have all the prizes been awarded/distributed yet? I received an email about a FastCap Pro license a while back but haven't heard a response.

I'm still waiting on two contestants (ForeverStarlight and Beer_Hunter) to get back to me with contact details. If I don't hear from them soon then I'm just going to have to send the details that I do have on to EJoyStudio and those two guys will lose out.

How much more time do you plan on giving them? It has been over two months since the end of the contest now.
For what it's worth, I finally gave superpig my contact details on the 21st of February. I don't know whether we're still waiting on ForeverStarlight or something else at this point.
I've pretty much given up on ForeverStarlight at this point. I'll be chasing up the final unfulfilled prizes when I get back home from GDC in a week or so.

...so...

What's going on? I haven't heard a thing about either of my prizes since Superpig contacted me to find out which one I wanted. Are they lost in shipping or something?
well, it's been over 2 weeks, still haven't received my fastcap pro license. I don't like to rag on people, but seeing as its been about, what, 4 months? since the end of the contest, I'm kind of getting antsy. Not very satisfied with this (although I do know I didn't do a very good job).

P.S. the 4e5 page isn't working.
Let's look at the bright side. At least we all had fun making games, got more experienced at it. I'm probably only saying this because I'm not actually looking forward to a FastCap Pro license lol. But hey, if it's free...

Just sent EJoyStudio the details they need to generate the FastCap Pro licenses.

EJoyStudio just got back to me - they hope to have all your licenses dispatched by next week.
