Sorry never done this before but id like to give it a shot. When they say 20 events... Does that meen 20 conditions? Or actual events.

You can read their full rules- its something like 20 events per frame for up to 4 frames, with up to 4 conditions per event. I will be attempting something quite daring, and if I get it done in 20 events in will be a miracle. But I definitely know exactly what I'm going to try to do

I think I'll join this one as well. I need to try new things with MMF2.

Will probably turn out something cliché though, lol.

I can't think of anything other than point and click style shoot the bullseye kinda games that would fit in 20 events... I'm working on a few hundred and only just started adding enemies... I'm thinking this is going to have to use the built in movement... bleh
<br />
Edit.. I just checked out some of the entries from last year... a couple of them are really impressive that they were able to do them in 20 events
