Welcome to contest A #5!

Submissions can be made to defladez@hotmail.com
The contest will run until Sunday August 27nd, 19:01 UTC.

The rules are the same as recent contests and discussion about them is here: http://armadillo.metaclassofnil.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=232

For simplicity name your solutions like this:
[YourForumName]-[DollarsRemaining]
or
[YourForumName]-[DollarsRemaining]-[SolutionName]

Example:
ARFC_A_V_LurkingFear.Toa-200-Esselukt.lvl

Due to stuff and stash the results will perhaps be posted a litle late. There wil not be muthc mailchecking to verify that mail has been recieved. But Ill find some ways I guess. :!: The .end file is a bit pathetic, but wtahc it in DILLO-1st person VIEW-angle etc - ops btw I forgot that its not possible to change view in .end mode :oops: . Only way is to change the name.
Good Luck!

Then I'll start the bidding at a soon-to-be-eclipsed $1650.

I submitted a $1714 (No Dark-Force).

P.S. How do you watch the Dillo in 1st person pov in the .end replays? My controls at the bottom of the screen dissapear. Is there some hotkey? Thanks ahead of time.

1700+ is sooooo last-hour.

To watch it in armadillo mode, make a copy of the '.end' file, and change the extension to '.lvl' Then open it like a normal level.

Can someone post a screenshot of the level, so that I can think about solutions when I'm at work? :)

Alright, so you forced me to look harder, $1800+ atm. I went through three distinct approaches and spent optimzing each, one in the high $1600 range, next in the low $1700's and now a totally new one in the $1800's. What's next? :)

P.S. Toa: Here's the level for you.

Nice job doing 1700+ all ready! About the end lvl: I forgot about that. Perhaps the only way is to change the name manually to something.lvl :oops: hmm 1800+ ? Perhaps there will be a Lord or two this time? Breaking that 19h? Who knows? I mean.. who knows?
