There's been a call for dates voting on RGRD. Reply on the thread to Jeff Lait saying which weeks work best for you.
For any unfamiliar, the Seven Day Roguelike Challenge is an annual event where roguelike developers code like mad to make a finished, playable and polished game in the span of seven days. If you've tinkered with the T-Engine before then you are *compelled* to participate! It you've not then you still have no excuse - my first touch with the T-Engine code was when I decided to make Broken Bottle in the T-Engine in 2011.
For anyone thinking of entering this year's module competition then this could be your entry, or a precursor to your entry. Or just a bit of fun on the side.
I'll announce again when the date is set!

Re: Seven Day Roguelike Challenge 2013
Awesome. I am doing a 7DRL this year! Now are those the dates for voting, or the dates for making the game?
Re: Seven Day Roguelike Challenge 2013
Dates for making. It looks likely to end up second week in March.

Re: Seven Day Roguelike Challenge 2013
So far only one other person than me that has registered for the Challenge and declared they'll be using the T-Engine. What the hell's going on?! Surely we won't have less entries than last year?
Re: Seven Day Roguelike Challenge 2013

Re: Seven Day Roguelike Challenge 2013
I will be participating. My 7drl will be called Steam and Iron. The only details I have decided on is there will be steam powered robots that the player can build. I guess more details to come. Also good luck to anyone else participating.
Those who complain are just Volunteering to fix the problem
