Rescue The Colors Competition Final Results!

[Lachie Dazdarian]

Allow me to share the final results of FreeBASIC Games Directory annual game making competition. This year's theme was Rescue The Colors. The goal was to create a game that started in a mock (pseudo) 1 bpp mode, with only black and white color used (no grey shades!). As the game progressed, new colors supposed to be unlocked/introduced, to a minimum of any 8 colors, up to 32-bit color mode.

The official entries and final scores:

Invasion of the Mononites! by ssjx: 54/91 (4th place)
RACESII by FXG861: 60/91 (3rd place)
Color Eater 3D by gothon: 64/91 (2nd place) - 50 $ prize
Y.A.G.A.C by Landeel: 69/91 (1st place) - 250 $ prize

Winner, Y.A.G.A.C.:

You don't know what's rage until you reach level 3. :)

[Landeel]

Trust me, level 3 is only the beginning of your pain. ;)

For anyone who gives up on YAGAC and dreads he or she will never play the later levels, I will point out there IS a cheat mode. :)

[Landeel]

There are 3 cheat codes actually. They can be figured out by taking a look at the source code. ;)
