I made my entry in about 12 hours of work using LibGDX and Gimp. It's Chess, but with 10 second turns. Must be played with another person, because there isn't any AI. Intended to be played on an Android.
The white king is victorious while showing a black king made me laugh a lot lol I feel like I lost... at least I was playing against myself so I kinda win anyway :)
Thanks for the feedback, everyone! I'm uploading the first update. I inverted the colors on the victory screen (no idea what I was thinking). Also, it's now impossible to castle out of check. Luckily my chess-playing friend pointed this out to me when I showed him the game.
This is actually pretty playable with two on my nexus 7. Not original by any means, but I could totally see busting this out waiting somewhere with friends. Thanks!
It's a solid chess game, it's really responsive and has a good UI, but it's not really as "Ridiculous" as the name implies :P Maybe you could mix it up with some sort of gimmick or clever mechanic?

In all seriousness, pretty good job. See if you can take more than 12 hours next time, and get a larger game done.
@junkmail I read your post before seeing who you were... Good one. :P Next time I'll definitely do something original.
You have no time to think so you must think fast.
It could be cool if you managed to make a chess AI (I know, it's not easy, MinMax might work as an algorithm).
