Here are the official rules: 1. Submit a screenshot from the PC version of Band of Bugs showing your final score screen for level 8 ("Hold the Line"). 2. The player with the MOST KILLS on that level will win a PC game of his choice, up to $50. Game must be easily available on a Web site such as Amazon.com so we can easily ship it to you. 3. Ties will be resolved by considering friendly units lost and then total play time for a level. 4. Send submissions to contest@ninjabee.com. Include your full name, preferred e-mail address, and physical mailing address. 5. We reserve the right to change and/or clarify these rules as necessary. 6. Winners will need to be able to verify their claimed score with a general explanation of their winning strategy. 7. Multiple submissions are allowed. We'll count only the highest scoring submission for any player. 8. The deadline for entry is January 20. *New Extended Deadline!*9. No cheating. 10. Feel free to discuss your scores and strategy on the forums.

Here's a link to the PC version. I don't know if it's actually even possible to find a link to it on the website. Maybe it's meant to be top secret or something. I don't know.

Well, you can link to the game by clicking on the picture or the name of the game at the top of the Home Page as Band of Bugs on PC is our "Featured Game" right now, but it is a bit hidden if you don't notice that. So thanks for the link

Don't I at least get a t-shirt or something for my score on the XBox live Version?
It's over 500 points higher than the #2 score, so I think I must have killed two more enemies than the next person. I doubt anyone on the PC version is going to beat it any time soon.
By the way, are there any gameplay differences between the xbox and PC versions?

Nothing big - the PC version includes a bunch of mouse and keyboard support and a few minor bug fixes. It doesn't include any of the Xbox specific functionality of the XLA version, of course, like achievements and rich presence and leaderboards... There is a multiplayer online matchmaking service.
Also the PC version of Band of Bugs is likely to make each of you even more attractive, if such a thing is possible, to the gender of your choice.

It lets you know when Bob is online, zing!
It is the info that shows up when you see a freind playing a game. Such as "in menus", winning/losing and such.

I was going to rush to level 8 and try to get a score today but then I noticed the deadline was extended, so I can take my time. Does the prize have to be a PC game?

If you would like T-shirts instead of a PC game and you win, that's fine. You can have some NinjaBee T-shirts.
But that's the only thing we'll substitute the prize with! Nobody better say they want a pony or a trip to Disneyland instead of a PC game...

You should throw in a t-shirt as a bonus if the PC contest winner can beat the XBox Live high score of 13474, set by me. (Otherwise, send me the t-shirt.)

Glad to see a deadline extension. I'll be sure to download it on my WORKING laptop asap, since i do have a free copy from the beta still.
