RavenBlueIndigo 121 Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) Ok, ladies and gents! It is december, and you know what that entails!. . .. . .. . .. . . CHRISTMAS!(Of course.) And, with this holiday in mind, I bring you a contest! THE CONTEST: The premise is simple; create a short game containing thematic ties to Christmas. All entries must have some direct link to Christmas somewhere within them. REQUIREMENTS: -The game must be a minimum of 8 minutes long.-The game must feature Santa as a character(NPC or otherwise) or directly reference him.-The game must be uploaded before 12 PM January 1st.-The game may use any tilesets given that they're credited, if need be. They do not have to be entirely custom(Although, that'd be nice.) PRIZES: I've honestly not much to give, :\, but, I'm not going to make a contest without some promise of reward. It may not be much, but...-Winners by vote will receive a small "Christmas Contest Victor!" banner.-If I prefer a game over the voters choice, I will also give an "RBI's Fav" banner thingeymajigger.That's really all I can offer. And, with that, I wish you all the best of luck on your Christmas endeavor. Edited December 4, 2014 by RavenBlueIndigo 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavenBlueIndigo 121 Posted December 2, 2014 Notice to all: I will be uploading my own submission, but it will not be up for vote(As I am the contest host.). I just want to celebrate the spirit of Christmas and make a Christmas game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RavenBlueIndigo 121 Posted December 2, 2014 Well, I very much like contests, so . And, oh? You can make one? I was going to either make one myself mid month or task someone with it, but if y'all can handle that, that'd be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Omij 35 Posted December 9, 2014 Well, I always wanted to work on the evil orphan-eating Santa monster. Would a gory game be fine? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

philteredkhaos 131 Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Aww man, too bad I am only just NOW seeing this! But I made a crappy game in less time... Super Awesome Face Contest! entry at the Mother Ship (main site...) Dang it Raven, I already have a ton of projects going, now I am going to put them to the side, and start a new one! BTW, what if you made a banner for all the participants? and the winner gets the sweet fancy badge. Edited December 17, 2014 by philteredkhaos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Knighterius 502 Posted December 19, 2014 When you say 8 minutes long do you mean if you speed run it? Because I have puzzles in mine and if I were to speed run it the time wouldn't take that long but f someone got stuck then it would take awhile for them depending on the player so what do you mean by that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavenBlueIndigo 121 Posted December 19, 2014 Well, I mean, roughly 8 minutes long, as long as it hits that general ballpark, cause, hell, there's people out there who could probably beat an hour game in like 30-40 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavenBlueIndigo 121 Posted December 19, 2014 @Philteredkhaos, Kaz said that one could be made up for me, so I was kind of banking on that, but, if that doesn't come to me, then I have friends who could do it, or I could do it myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
