Congratulations to Kimbo on winning the first official birthday contest and our biggest prize giveaway to date. From the look of the votes it was incredibly close and to be honest im not surprised because we had some amazing entries with each of you showing great skill and imagination in VB game creation.

We will have lots going on around the site in the run up to our birthday and as part of that I am starting this contest which will see us give away our biggest ever prize bundle to one lucky winner. Now because its our birthday and everyone likes to have fun at a party the theme of this contest if going to be "Party Games".
Yes your mission is to create a game using VB for us to play at our party and the game can be anything you like aslong as its your own work. I have seen a couple of members making games lately but we dont have many on here so I think it will be a great chance for you all to get creative and learn how to make games in VB. You will be very surprised at how easy it can be to make games in VB so if your thinking "OMG I cant do this!" you can still ask for help in the forums.

Your games dont need to be super fantastic 3D with all the bells and whistles but it must meet a few requirements:
The game must be entirely your own code - do not steal completed source from other sites and claim it as your own.
Your game must be beatable - Please dont post a game you know cant be beaten.
You can make any type of game you want and you are allowed to post more than one entry. When the contest ends I will put all entries up for a vote and it will then be upto your fellow members to decide who the winner is. In the event of a tie the winner will be chosen by me
If I am left with deciding the winner I will be looking for playability more than visual appeal but good graphics and visuals do help with the overall enjoyment of a game.
Prize bundle list so far:
Supreme VIP Status
Webspace with domain name of your choice - Fully paid for 1-year
A copy of my favourite online game 'Team fortress classic' (PC)
8Gig Flash drive - Perfect for backing up your VB projects.
I will be adding more and more stuff to this list from now until the contest ends so it will be very big by the time we finish.
Ok good luck you have until the 12th of July to get your entries in so no rush take your time and remember you can submit as many entries as you like. This contest is open to everyone apart from me because I may end up judging the winner ;)
Good luck cooll;
