Well JumpStart has had a new Demo contributed to it (or at least the start of a new demo) by Joen Joenson. Joen has come up with a Mine Finder game (kinda like MineSweeper) and has been kind enough to let me add it into our list of demos. I've added in a new sprites demo that shows off how to use background sprites and image sprites to create a top down "game". As usual none of the demos are complete yet, but they are far enough along for you all to go check them out, link is on the Download Links page. Obviously if you write something in JumpStart and will let me make use of it I'd love it :).
The demo games are complete in functionality, only High Scores and Options are missing. If you want to change the level of difficulty then read the source. Soon as the GUI elements are complete I'll implement these things.

In case your curious, once the new version is complete I'll be finishing CoF. Once I ran out of time for the Compo, I decided to fix the problems with the engine and then complete the game.
One final note: Anyone out there that considers themselvs an artist and would like to create/modify the graphics please do! They are simple programmer art, and I'd love to have better looking stuff :wink: (hint hint!)
