Title: [Symmetry_2014] Entry No.1
Post by: padman on April 19, 2014

Hey guys,

as usual I tried to make something newschool and ended up doing a little retro cracktro thingy.  ::) Well, here it is. Hope you like it.  ;) I for sure enjoyed coding it.

Anyway, this is the very first entry, hence the inventive name. I hope to see some more.  -- So, where's yours?? ^^ The deadline is nigh! Hurry! ;)

Pad  :cheers:

Brilliant entry - the pixillated rotating stars are quite dazzling and the music has a cool retro feel to it. ;D
