Talking about Contests and Game development.
Try to save some time for coding next weekend because FGL is going to run a 48 hour contest, which will see you making a… guess what? Some cupcakes? No, a game!
On Friday 12/13/2013 at 4pm PST (GMT -8) / 7pm EST (GMT -5) a theme and all additional game rules will be announced on the official forum thread.
The contest has not been widely announced so there are good chances for you to get in top positions, anyway there are prizes for everyone!
If you aren’t use to convert PST or GMT to your local timezone, here is a link to the official countdown.
Once the announcement has been made, the contest begins.
