Event - Sleigh the Competition! 2023 Christmas Game Jam

Perhaps strangely…I am pretty down with that @rpgLord69

Haha, as long as you keep it PG-13.

Has anyone else already started, regardless of the fact that this was announced less that 6 hours ago?

Hey cap'n, got an outline for Betty & Jorma's Banging Christmas Hunt written down, early stage playtestin' gonna start on Sunday maybe :biggrin: Whatchu got?

I brainstormed ideas but haven't touched my laptop yet.

#1: I already loved the names Betty and Jorma. Keep them.
#2: Came up with the idea, wrote most of the script, got 99% of the assets together, put all the plugins I think I'll need in, chose the music....everything but actually making the game.

Started spriting Mr & Mrs Claus

Oh, BTW, how will the "voted best by fans" thing work? Can you vote for your own project?
Edit
I say that because if you did a poll, one could vote for their own game.

WELL.

Now that I am certain to have your attention.
Allow us to reveal…prize badges.

Every entrant will receive a participation badge. But, in addition to your chances of receiving a cash prize (always dope so dope), you are competing for an exclusive forum badge. COULD THIS EVEN BE REAL?! A SPECIAL BADGE!? I heard those were fake!

But, what’s this?! It appears the Yuletide naysayers have used terrible magic to obscure their identities. Uncool. Very uncool. Dastardly. Illegal even!


It is up to you, with the power of game make and incredible Christmas Spirit to dispel this curse!

The power of the community compels you!


As for voted best by fans.... I think we'll have a poll with top 5-10 games (depending on number of entries), and if your games make it into the poll, you are more than welcome to vote for your own game.

I've gone ahead and added that to the first post. Not everyone scrolls down after all ;)

Excited to see what everyone does. I'd love to join, but I'm still busy with the advent calendar for now. :)

Well.. if this time, we can have a badge for Xmas, I'm all in. :eswt:

Edit: my phone is giving me troubles, sorry.

I just vote as it's hard to make a game :p
I'm more or a mechanic maker than getting mapping done xD

so good luck to all that is going to join, I look forward to it ^^
may the best one wins.

I have a fun little story in mind already. Now to come up with an actual game worth making.

C'mon, I'm pretty lazy but even I can throw together some minigame with snowman graphics in a few hours, if only for the elusive mystery badge.

I'm pretty sure I got at least the basic story and maps but knowing myself I'm surely going ham with the battles. Who's ready to combo a giant snowman to death? :kaopride:

I’m so excited to see so many people getting to work so quickly! I’m sure the outpouring of dire need from Santa’s workshop elves really pulled on your heart strings and that this has absolutely nothing to do with cash and forum swag. None whatsoever. AMIRIGHT?

It's the cash, we're broke
Nope! Just Christmas spirit!
I'm usually not that competitive, but like, I'm getting out my A game.

I could try, but it wont reached the 20min, I struggle making maps and I like to take
the time, but I might build something, but also bit busy in RL, so I need to combine it.
voting = helping too, even if it's not badge, but it help the judges at least ^^

maybe I got some idea's, but it needs time, I just have a perfect idea if it works out,
I join, if not, I wont share xD

Well I am competitive and if these games don’t make me laugh and/or feel like the emotional manifestation of chicken noodle soup I’m going to look like >: C
