I'm not sure on whats allowed or not allowed. Are things in the pygame.com/library allowed? (like Isotope or phu)?

The Contest started 8pm local time, and I stayed up untill 3am. We think we have an idea for the game. I just wanted to get a player on the screen with collision detection and gravity. Got that working, then when I tried to add jumping I broke everything :( Grr
I'll get to work a little while today, but I have to goto a leadership thing for school so thats going to eatup alot of my time. *sigh* maybe I'll upload a screen shot even though my graphic artist hasn't started yet.

Well I got back from school and fixed my collision detection and added the ability to jump! yay! Spend some time discussing ways to make level creation as easy as possible, but I think I'd waste too much time trying to make a level loader. we'll just hand code the levels, if it worked for Mario it'll work for us :D

Wow, I thought I was doing super good, and now I'm behind schedule. Creating a scrolling background that places the correct sprites on the screen as been more challenging that I originally thought.
And we still don't have any graphics, not one, nothing, nadda. *sigh*

School got in the way (shouda skipped classes :P ) I have to rewrite the scrolling section of the code, so I don't think we'll make it, but we'll try!
