Believe it or not, I actually made three other, fully functional, engines for the contest but had to scrap all three due to lack of time. Because of this and school work, I only had about eight partial days to come up with a decent idea and create it from scratch. That's when I came up with this "simple" hexagonal pipes game. I brainstormed ideas for a day and worked on it as much as I could. There are still a couple bugs, but I'm glad I could make something for the contest.

If you did, I would have known the code almost immediately (and maybe some other people would have figured it out).
But its too late for me to complain now.
