Hello again TIGSource! 

I just wanted to let everyone know that we are running GameDev Secret Santa again this year, from now to the 25rd of December, so anyone who wants to participate should pop over here to submit.

What is GameDev Secret Santa?

GameDev Secret Santa is a secret santa among game developers, but instead of giving each other Christmas presents, devs exchange game feedback! The feedback is then delivered straight to your email on Christmas morning. So you, Mr./Ms. Game Developer, can hopefully relive the magic of waking up on Christmas Day, jumping out of bed, and running downstairs to see what digital Santa has left you. Or just check your phone. We're not judging.

How does it work?

1) Sign up here
2) Submit your game
3) Review the three games you are assigned
4) Have your shiny new feedback delivered to you on Christmas Morning!

What are the rules?

You can read the full list of rules on the website, but it essentially breaks down to not submitting anything offensive/broken and using the exchange in good faith!

I want to contribute, but I don't have a game. What can I do?

We are going to be running this next year too, so we welcome you to participate then. If you want to help us grow GameDev Secret Santa in the meantime, we encourage you to promote us (especially on twitter). The more people that join, the more fun everyone has!

Didn't you run this last year too?

Yes, yes we did. One could say that we are, in fact, wise sages in terms of running this (probably shouldn't)

I have a question/need to contact you?

You are welcome to tweet me (@enathang) or email me ([email protected])
Merry Christmas and happy holidays!
