I was informed about the most excellent contest at the fine ludumdare site. The contest is quite simple: make a game and sell 1 copy (you can sell 1 copy *after* October deadline by the way) .
There’s only about a week left, but I intend to participate.
Anyone else ready to take the challenge?
I started coding games when I was a small kid with access to Commodore 64.

It might be diffcult to make a game which somebody buys, if it’s not worth any money.
And if you make a game which is worth any money, it might be difficult to sell only one copy.
Make a game — take it to market — sell 1 copy
(or 1 in-app purchase, or license it, or earn $1 in ad revenue)
i think the “earn $1 in ad revenue” would be the easier, at least in the flash market
I’m a noob but I’m going for it.
It’ll be my first game. A fixed shooter involving frogs.
Good luck!
