So... yeah. My hard drive's been wiped, and in the process, I've lost all of my games. Thus, I won't be developing Revolt any more (Although the bugs were fixed! You can get it at http://gamejolt.com/games/arcade/revolt/22735/). Also, I won't be participating in the tournament this month, as I've lost all of my work on it. I'll still be active on the forum and making games.

Damn!!! How did it get wiped?! Well, I know how you feel, when my acer had over 9000 viruses. (Literally over 9000, I had to format it since it was unusable.)

I'm very sorry to hear that.

Well... actually, there's a small chance I'll be able to recover them. Maybe. :|
It wasn't actually wiped wiped; the data's still there; there's just no reference to it.
I installed Ubuntu GNOME, and accidentally overwrote my Windows partition.

About Revolt:
Before I lost the source, I fixed the bugs and polished it up a little, and uploaded the fixed version to GameJolt. So it's quite playable!

Acer? My Acer computer seems to have broken down too! Is Acer just a bad brand of computer? I only had it for about 4 years before failling completely.

As the former owner of an Acer laptop whose fan broke down three months after I got it: Yes.

There is a chance that the contents of my hard drive might be lost...

Try inserting the drive into another computer. It's pretty easy to do, but if you're not sure how it's done just google it.
