Hey all.
A very little entry to this year's Halloween Competiton called : Blurred Pumpkin.

Unfortunately, this whole thing is thrown together rather quickly. I did test several frameworks
and lost too much time for the actual effect coding this time. Speaking of frameworks, for this
production I used the SFML framework (http://sfml.sourceforge.net/).
(See text for complete / detailed credits.).
All this including the "scroller" was hacked together rather quickly - so sorry if I forgot someone
in the greetings list. Unfortunately I am going to be rather busy in the next days - so today was
my last time having some spare time to contribute something to the contest.
I like this very much, real atmosphere. Eerie.
That has great Halloween spirit :) Thanks Benny!
@sw+chris:
Wow ... you are pretty fast! Thanks for nice feedback. Much appreciated !!!
I was watching the online list and saw you were posting a topic tbh so I was lurking in wait for you to post it! :-[
@Benny!: Congrats for taking part on the compo, that's the real spirit :clap:
@Benny!
Nice atmosphere, I like it.
Very nice! Good Halloween feeling about it :)

@Jim/rbraz/positron:
Thanks a lot, mates !!!
id like to try this out but it doesnt work here.
i get a quick loading icon for about a second but then nothing?
It works fantastic here. Hats off to you Benny the choice of music was spot on. And I liked the effect when the pumpkin almost comes into focus then starts to go back out of focus. And thanks for the greetings (you greeted me twice? ;D)
@ninogenio:
Strange ... does you gfx card support shaders ?
@rain_storm:
glad you like it. hehe ... greeting you twice ? Didn't notice that ... well better
twice than no greeting ;-)
Hi Benny,
it seems my computer isn't capable of running this one - I get "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem."
Is there anything I might need to install to make it work?
@benny sorry mate i didnt realize i needed shaders im working of a really old grforce 4 ti4600 rig ill test it out on my other comp. cheers
@ninogenio:
np. maybe I should have added this in the description / requirements. sorry for any inconviences.
@ck0:
does your gfx card supports shaders ?

I'm afraid I'm not sure, but I have been able to run it on another machine. I like it - definitely a contender!
@Paul:
