Thanks to BigJKO for bringing this to my attention. In fact, because I am somewhat lazy, I'm just going to quote what he posted over at Idle Forums;

Ok, just thought I'd pass this along to you people.
RetroRemakes are holding a three-month comptetition to see who can make the best remake of a retro game of their choice. The rules will be announced in half an hour, and the prize money for first place is almost £900 and over 75 prices to be won.
So, if you're a programmer, stop by their site. And if you're not, you could still drop by and take a look at the devblogs going on from time to time, detailing the creation of these remakes. Maybe you'll spot a favorite of yours being remade.
There. Awesome!
P.S. www.retroremakes.org
The link. It... It's not alive. It's dead.
Edit:
The correct URL is http://www.remakes.org/
Ah, yes. What I meant to say. Thanks.
"Processed Cheese?" No more Yufster?
I think it's nearly impossible to make a nice adventure remake in only 3 months. :-\
They never said anything about the remakes being "nice."
LucasFan, can you just turn in Deluxe? Or by some chance do you think they could be one of the 200,000+ people to download the game and know you have already finished it?Ã, ;D
Maybe turn in an updated version with some fixes that you were thinking of doing?

Wasn't the last time she was Yufster several months ago? She changes her name more often than James Bond has sex.

Maniac Mansion Deluxe is already up on the Retro Remakes web site. It wouldn't make much sense to enter it again.

Once every two years for 90 minutes?
