Just looking at the screenies makes me feel inadequate...Ã,Â :'(

Why did I waste all my time on that darn GUI?

Don't worry Pelican. Everyone get's a chance and now that we are "complete" let's start the voting.
I think it's very interesting this competition as all entries are posted at about the same time:

For voting please visit the MAGS site or make your choice right here (only use one of these two ways of voting - nothing else allowed):

Pixel Hunt by SSH
Missing Since Midnight by Maxileen
Hotel Hijinks by Pelican

Please vote only once and be sure to have played all games before sending your voice! Good luck to all participants.

I forget: are the authors allowed to vote? (for their own games?)

Also, Klaus, you've linked to the source code on the MAGS site, not the game: http://www.ssh.me.uk/pixelhunt.zip

Authors are also allowed to vote - if they want for their own game. But they don't have to and they - and anybody else - may only vote once!

The download link is set correct now. Oops, sorry.

Yes, the rules will soon be online... Please allow just some minutes.

The voting just stopped some minutes ago. During the weekend not that many votes rushed in and so as February was such a "short" month the time for voting was extended - until some minutes ago.

So let's come to the winner (sorry, there's no video this time - let's say also due to the time issue...):

Congratulations for Febrauary MAGS go to
SSH with his entry Pixel Hunt

Actually the two other entries by Pelican and Maxileen also made a nice number of votes and were pretty close behind the winning game. Anyway the result is clear... We'll see what happens in March then

Congratulations to the other authors, too, becuase all the games were good this month... maybe next time you guys enter try getting more testers and voice actors in your credits, as they will tend to vote for you

I really enjoyed both of the other games, and would not have felt hard done by to lose to either of them.
