Well, You're right and for instance I gave him a lot of points, however there is one important thing: I'm not a coder, so I took what was looking nice.
However the rule appeared while the compo: everytime after watching a program - everybody (mostly coders) wanted to see also a source - if it's complicated and resourceful (as for ZX81 1K possibilities).
Hence the results, not because the demo wasn't nice.

As for the game, mostly we played Manic Miner (software hires), Ferengi (because it's stupid and additionally Factor6 made a 1K version ;) ), and also the best low-res game You're askin' about - Treasure Hunter (which is here: http://pouet.net/prod.php?which=51823 )
