Pretty. Not a very fun game though, but it's definitly minimalistic and stylish.

Requires XNA, so I won't be rating this.

Neat idea. I wish the interface was completely mouse driven. Also, rotating the objects somehow didn't quite feel intuitive. I didn't really like the music.

Missing .NET 3 / might update and try it later.

hrm, I think I have all the required libs installed but I'm getting a generic crash on startup. (vista64)

I don't know what tech I'm lacking for this, but crash on startup... I know have XNA stuff from previous compos, and .net, so I probably just don't have the latest.

App failed :(

phren

Didn't run on my computer even after installing all the dependencies. :(

HybridMind

Crashed on startup with no information. WinXP

I think I owe you to test this game, since in my last compo I used xna but ppl couldn't run my game. If I get some time over today I will.

Update: So i tried to install .net 3/3.5 but my C: drive is full, and I could not install on another drive. So I'll have to skip this.

Yargh. Invasion is evil. Tried that one with the cylinder but got run over constantly.
Oh well... sort of interesting concept, a bit Wario Ware or DS-ishly. Shaking isn't as rewarding as it could have been though. Maybe the object should have followed the mouse around more strictly, and it would have been great if the little specks sort of waved around as if they did their best to hold on, and eventually they would lose their grip if you yanked too hard.
Object rotation was really weird and I couldn't really make friends with it.
I like the odd gouraud shading on the meshes for some reason. Makes them look soft and warm.

Having trouble running this; I finally got around to debugging it today, and it says "An unhandled exception of type 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' occurred in Unknown Module."
I'm still using VS2k5, so I can't get the project to run from source easily; skipping unless I have time to tinker with it further before judging deadline.

couldnt get it to run last minute, need xna. good journal though
