Thank you so much for being part of the Indie Game Challenge.
This year’s competition was very tough and we had some really great entrants including yours.


Got this (and  more) per mail.
No clue if that's auto generated or not x/

This one might be better since it is targetter at browser games (found it via an advert, dunno if it is a scam):

Hey, yeah, read about it.
"COMPUTEC MEDIA AG will present the potential winners publishing contracts to transfer the global marketing rights."
I think I won't participate in this one.. anyway, I participated in 3 in total. If none turns out positive it only means that I have to invest more.

Doidel, your game looks pretty nice. Well presented, too. If anything it lacks originality; this type of game has been done many times now.

The magic word this year was "puzzle", it seems. I particularly like the changing gravity puzzle one.

Thanks for your honest reply.

I guess that my game is rather something for the broad audience than for indie judges. You are probably right, CoK is an rpg and therefore already sort of oldschool ^^

Guess best is if I just finish a first stage of it, release an open beta and get a decent fanbase :P
