A regrettably incomplete entry.

I was looking forward to this from the diary entries. Unfortunatly it's not enough of a game to even see what it was supposed to be, yet.

Good idea, but unfinished.

Oh well.. at least you have a player, missile and a target. I hope you'll finish it later, for the sake of your daughters exercise... and yours, too. ;-)

It doesn't seem like there's any gameplay. Is there supposed to be something about multiplication somewhere?

Sorry to hear you ended up spending the end of PyWeek in waiting rooms. Hope to see you back next PyWeek. Richard also teams up with his daughter so you're in good company. :)

not completed, nice graphic! :)

Nice idea, but there isn't enough here to really call it a game yet. I like the artwork, though.

Sadly, it did not work. Remeber: Just because your OS is case insensitive, that doesn't mean all OSes are (

I love your screenshot. You also get bonus points for including "press the mouse button to fire at the ducks" in the README. Shame you didn't get to finish the game.

Wish you could have gotten more done - this would have been an interesting entry.

I laughed so hard that you actually implemented the template README.txt "how to play" game.

Obviously an unfinished entry. Sorry you were unable to finish, housecaldwell. Makes it very hard to rate any of the categories.

In my book, fun can be had in more than just the gameplay, though. So I marked up Fun on the virtue of the fact that you used your daughter's artwork. That's great. :)

I had no problems running what you've got. Hope to see you back next year!
