Almost 150, and everyone did an amazing job. I have my favorites, but everyone deserves some measure of recognition and solid respect for their talent and work. I am proud to have competed for the first time and to have completed my first finished game. I am thankful this exists as a creative outlet for so many talented folks. Where else can a country boy from Kentucky make games along side\u00a0people from Germany, India, the Netherlands, South Africa, Mexico and everywhere else around the world, joining a truly equal global community to compete with an enormous pool of \u00a0talent? Feel free to do some shameless self promotion in the comments, and If I haven\u2019t played your game yet, post it and I\u2019ll try to. I\u2019m glad that LD exists and I\u2019m glad that I joined in. Peace everyone and have a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, (whatever your belief structure) Excellent Festivus and a great New Year. Keep being AWESOME.<\/p>\n<p>-Joey<\/p>","time":"December 25th, 2014 5:32 pm","title":"Just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas","title_was_empty":false}
