It’s time, for a challenge! We are most proud to announce Boolean Soup's game programming competition. A competition open for anyone to enter, by use of any programming language and with some kick ass expensive prizes at stake! And as we are a small community your chances to win have never been this high. The competition will run during this time:

[centre] October 5 2006, 00:00 AM GMT - January 31 2007, 00:00 AM GMT [/centre]

The competition is theme-based and you have 4 awesome themes to choose from, with one acting as a wildcard. The themes will be released on the day that the competition starts. The contest will run for about 4 months, after which we will review the games and the big winner will be in the position to choose one of multiple big prizes (see competition page). Teams of 2 persons are allowed (for example one programmer and one graphic artist), however the prize will be split, so the choice is yours. But don't worry, even the team prizes are still pretty awesome. Every competitor is strongly encouraged to keep worklogs to entertain everyone and tease his or her opponents.

Check out the full competition page for the rules and the great prizes, and check out the special competition forum as well!

Cool :-). Don't think I'll enter since I have to work 40hours a week so I don't have much time left. Can't wait to see what the competitors will make :-)
