All right, after playing and completing all the games (except that cloudee1's is unbeatable) I have come to the following decisions.
First I would like to say that I was really impressed with the originality in all the games! They were all really cool ideas based on my "repeating" rule. Now, on to what you all really care about:
First place goes to
Cloudee1 for his game "Aquarius: An Aquatic Experience". (cute groundhog no?)
Even though the game was not an "adventure" game in the usual genre, I think that (1) the idea was cool, (2) it was pretty funny, (3) the animation and art was great, and (4) it offered a unique, but perhaps overly challenging gameplay.
Second place goes to
JTyler for his game "The Gem Scenario". This game used paintings as the puzzles for the recurring art room. nice use of a time-based puzzle clock gave it a sense of urgency! It was a bit buggy, but it was fun nonetheless.
Third place goes to
Troflip for his game "The Farm Nightmare". (it's not a pile o' poo, it's a groundhog hole!)
This game certainly wins third place not for want in ingenuity and interesting puzzles. The idea for this game was really cool and the text was often very funny. Only problem was it did not feature an original playable room. Certainly a great entry regardless!
Since Cloudee1 takes first with his very unique entry, I will leave it to his discretion concerning the next compitition.
