Perfect Fit
MsxKun surprises the MSX world with a new free puzzle game: Perfect Fit! It's a puzzle game based on a GP2X game by Akuma no Houkon. In this game you get to move boxes to a spot with a corresponding color, at first sight it may look a bit like Sokoban.
Donations for this annual contest keep coming in. The organizers have announced that due an extra €50, the main prize has increased to €250, and perhaps this number may still grow in the next months! Responsible for these new donations are Latok and Fernando Manuel García García!
The MSXdev'08 contest has an open sponsorship structure.
It's been a while since we've heard any MSXdev news, perhaps all these game developers were on holiday during the summer? Anyway, as the months keep going on, the deadline comes closer. While the deadline is in 2009, the final game developing months go faster than the first ones!

Since the SG-1000 and ColecoVision hardware is similar to that of the MSX, converting games from these systems to MSX doesn't cost too much effort. One very particular SG-1000 game is Sega's SG-1000 console port of Bomb Jack.
