well despite my best efforts, there just wasn't enough time to finish my game off to a standard i would be happy with entering. i got the game to a playable state, but the AI genetic algorithm at the core just isn't balanced and working properly yet. i need to put a bunch more time into it!! :)
i'm going to continue working on the game to make it everything i want it to be and maybe it will be applicable to the main DBP competition later this year.
i wish everyone who managed to cobble something together the best of luck, looking forward to competing in DBP 2008.
cheers.
