Another Game Design Contest

I like game design contests, they help me focus my thoughts, they give a deadline, and they provide an immediate audience of other designers who'll look at my stuff.

With this in mind, I'm happy that I've found out about the...

 Shortest Month, Longest Game – Design Challenge
