Maybe a few ppl could make xmas sprites, then just smash them together into a pic.
I don't know if we're doing this or not, but here's mine:  No, wait, not that one.  Ahhh, that's better. Edit: I WILL FIGHT COLOSSALCAKE FOR 8TH. I AM IN AND I RESERVED NUMBER EIGHT AND I WILL FIGHT HIM FOR IT. >:|

Seems like we have a predicament here. Let's take a look... On one hand, Ashkin did say he wanted it first. However, he never said he for sure wanted it, only that he would do it if nobody else could. ColossalCake, on the other hand, asked for it through eigenbom when he/she saw it available. Ashkin, I hate to do this to my indeebro4lyf, but... could you please pick another date? Sorry dood. The fifteenth is another tuesday, and that's open. Also the 7th.

Man I don't even care that it's Tuesday it's just that 8 is my lucky number but okay that's fine too I'll just go back to being 'pending' again Probably go for the 21st instead if there's nobody left to fill that spot but whatever

You and 1.3 billion Chinese Edit: Choose the 24th, that's 3 lots of luck for you!  What's so special about 8 for the chinese?... I just like it because it's vertically and horizontally symettrical, and because of the term '8-bit', which of course multiplies to the 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, etc. that computers today use for some reason. So I guess 8 is more of my favourite number. My LUCKY number, though, for whatever reason, is 21, so I'll stick with that if I end up joining.

The word for "eight" (八 Pinyin: bā) sounds similar to the word which means "prosper" or "wealth" (發 – short for "發財", Pinyin: fā). In regional dialects the words for "eight" and "fortune" are also similar, e.g. Cantonese "baat3" and "faat3".

Ok, I know I told theophilus that no one would ever see these... But I made two possible banners before I knew I had to incorporate the other pixel art.   Oh, and I want to say to theo: Dude, bravo for making this topic and trying to get this started. This kind of thing is what makes me love indie games and TIGS.

Although I like the second one a lot, I think the first one is more in tune with my vision of this event: simple, one-off games without a lot of bells and whistles. The plainer first suggestion mirrors this. @eigenbom: thanks for pointing out this event and dragging me over here

So guys, for my advent game I was thinking I was going to use...  Wait. What? Why not? (I personally like the second one better.)

Honestly, how are we supposed to make Christmas games without sleigh bells?

I would think that some bells and whistles are okay, especially of the sleigh variety. But you better keep it to a minimum!

C.D Buckmaster: Done. That will be a nice spot.
Ashkin: Sorry again bro. I hope you do participate! The 21s would be nice, you'd have lots of inspiration from the other games and you'd probably be on break from school.
Ghost: You are officially on this gravy train.
peanutbuttershoes: I like the second one. I think I'll use that.
XRA: Done.
Manuel Magalhães: Added.
This is filling up fast! Only 7 spots left, 6 if Ashkin gets on (Ashkin: That means GET ON).
