for a contest i can understand
but for a publisher to say "this game must be out in 3 weeks time" for no other reason than thats the date they slapped on the posters without ever checking the feasability of it being ready
if you had a month in which to do that game you might spend the same ammount of man hours on it or perhaps a few here and there fine tuning it, i doubt you would have committed a whole working month on a contest program if you had work/real life issues to attend to, but knowing you can slap out that kinda work in such a small time frame proves that
A> blitz is great for this kinda thing
B> you CAN do stuff like this if you put your mind to it
