Ends: Sunday, April 29, 2012 ( 23:59:59 GMT)

Theme: 8 seconds of Love 0.8.

Rules:
  • Demos must incorporate 8 seconds into the demo/game. Examples: game rounds that are 8 seconds long; a graphical demo which is 8 seconds long. Loading, etc, isn't counted. Use your best judgement.
  • You must use at least one new API call in love 0.8.
  • Demos which include rubber pigs get bonus points*
Submit your demos/games to this thread, or PM me. I'll keep an updated list on this top post.

A compilation video (and possibly a compilation .love file) will be created the weekend of May 5, and released the following Monday. If you miss the deadline, at least try to submit your demos before that weekend.

wouldn't it be better to announce the theme of the event closer the to the time? otherwise there's nothing stopping people from working on it now...

As long as there is no prize and no winner, I don't think cheating is a problem.
