These are final rules:

there will be Main Event where new games will be made or old PyWeek games hacked (as alternative)
there will be several Hack Event rounds where games from Main Event will be hacked
there will be Theme
Main Event starts on 28.5, at 0:00 UTC
Main event lasts 8 days (so it ends on 4.6 at 24:00)
Hack Event will have 4 rounds, each 4 days long
in each Hack Event round hacker needs to hack latest version (in first round everyone will hack Main Event game, in second someone can hack Main Event game only if game wasn't hacked in first round)
voting lasts for 14 days and is after last Hack Event round (it starts on 21.6 and ends on 4.7)
there will be normal PyWeek categories for voting non-hacked games and final product (after 4th round)
there will be only one category (progress) for each Hack Event round and games which hacked old PyWeek games
there will be special category for hacker of a game (code clearness, extensibility and documentation)
it will be entirely on GitHub

You can sign up by cloning this repo, editing

or using script and then pull it.

Just curious, were there any entries here? I'm very interested in checking them out.

I actually have worked on another team's PyWeek entry after a competition, and I have to say that if anyone does anything nontrivial with someone else's PyWeek entry within 4 days, I'll be very impressed. :)

Well, nobody except me submitted a game so I think there were no hacking entries. :(
Maybe we will have something next time and maybe it will really be something.

Ah, where's your game, if you don't mind showing it? Best of luck if you try this again. I think it's going to be really hard to get people to sign on. If you figure out how to make it work I'd be very interested to see how!
