Armor Games is proud to announce its new game contest, the Armor Games Christmas Game Challenge. This is a game oriented contest where you the authors get a chance to win money as well as help the less fortunate. Don't worry animators, NG will launch corrosponding movie contest soon.

For every dollar you'll win ArmorGames will donate 50 cents to Toys for Tots charity organization. Regardless if you win anything or not, ArmorGames will donate $25 in your name to Toys for Tots.

As for prizes, the prizes remain cool and slick :)

$1000 for the first and second prize winners, $700 to 3rd and fourth, and $500 to runner ups up to tenth.

This means that even if you don't come in first, you'll still face a lot of nice money :)

Like the last contest, this one also contains staff elected prizes, so the favorites will get prizes, even if they don't win by NG score.

So go ahead and have a look

Oh, you know it big boy.

I would still say that proof of copyright must be made available to Armor Games in case someone contests it. You know someone will. It might be me, it might be someone else... but someone will say "I bet you don't have a proper license for that song," and at that point, it would be great of you guys or the author (or both) could show proof of it in the form of a link or confirmation number and give that person (even if its me) the big fuck you.

Secondly, I would consider modifying the "Must have 1000 views to be eligable for the contest" since one of the AG picks had less than 1000 views. =)

I'd either say "Must have 1000+ views to be eligable for the main contest, though any number is valid for the AG pick"... lower the 1000 to something else, or enforce the 1000 across the board.

Also, with the slower under judgement jazz going on, 1000 isn't as easy as it was 2 months ago. Blah. It almost needs to be paged or collectioned to get that. (Or submitted at a great time)

Just some thoughts. You knew I'd have a few and I know that's why you mentioned it, sexy bitch.

=p

What do you think? WASD keys to move and SPACE to make mounds, it was gonna be a snowball game. It's very buggy and hasnt been worked on for a year

View at 640, putfile messes it up.

Last year didn't you say that you'd include Hanukkah in next year's competition (by which I mean this year)?

Jews, always getting the small text, cause they're jealous of our big penises.

do the proceeds of my piece have to goto that charity? I'd prefer having my efforts goto more obscure establishments that are more meaningful to me. Most large charities dont filter it down to my latino people.
