    First Karoshi game, in the 6th place -sigh-, we must work hard on our MSXdev'05 entries to get a better place! Smile. Congratulations to MarkII, both games "Sink King" and "Seleniak" worth the 1st place for me!. And congrats to everyone who take part on MSXdev'04!

    Congratulations to MkII ! He's indeed an excellent programmer, but also a very sympathic guy ... Of course, the contest was only to decide which is the best game, but, for me, the human factor is also very important !

    This contest proves also that when all is conceived in a positive way, this can lead to great results (16 new games and most of these games are really good or excellent !). I hope that it can leads to more positive MSX Revival , also outside Spain ! Congratulations also to the other programmers that have contributed to this contest ... and to pitpan of course !

    Now I wonder who would win if an MRC poll would have been used!
    I'm quite surprised about the results in some cases...

    Well, I liked Karoshi games as well... BTW you'll get to level 00 after level 99 in Duck Hunt. (See, I like them) :9

    I think that a frontpage poll would be nice (not using the lousy votesheets!).

    What are the rules of Mr. Chef & the Sausages?
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONMY_6RbBMU

    Is this game so bad to be below Chocobo Racing?
    At first glance Chocobo Racing seems better but it is unplayable on MSX1 because too buggy. Access to VDPs is too fast but there are other bugs.

    Mr. Chef & the Sausages is well programmed.
