HO HO HO, or should I say YA HA HA! It’s the most wonderful time of the year (or at least in the top five for me) and therefore we have the most wonderful event for you to take part in.
We would like you to create a wintery game or a space. It doesn’t have to be snowy or Christmas-y, mind you. But it should be one of those things, or otherwise portray a lovely seasonally appropriate theme!
Tl;dr:
Create a winter wonderland or a holiday-spirited game!

Attempt to try to represent the place where the 3 wise men went to visit the baby Jesus.
I lacked models of the boy Jesus and the kings characters that were really in history, as I don’t know how to model it was difficult to find it on the internet for free and in the platform’s library I couldn’t find it either.
Hello everyone.
First of all hope you’ve had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Secondly here’s my game for this event:
You can also open it on itch and access the link from there too:
Hope you’ll enjoy playing it and grinding to defeat the boss.
Just a couple of hints:
try jumping on the owl near the starting point in the forest
try finding the easter egg quest and complete it ( this is just a bonus part )
try to empower the elevator to meet a mystery character at the clouds ( this part is my favourite, because of the atmosphere )
That’s all from me, good luck on your applications everyone and keep up the great work.
Have a nice day
I got a bit too ambitious with the lighting, but I still think I managed to capture a fun atmosphere. Here it is, The Enchanted Christmas Tree:
It’s quiet in the North Pole now that Christmas is over, but Santa will let you say and enjoy the Christmas spirit for just a little longer. January is a dark month and we can all use a little magic after all.
A battle royale where you fight it out with snowballs.
6 Players, random spawning. Spawn collision exists.
Snowballs can be equipped at the middle of the map.
Once equipped you gain access to ability.
Rise above others for a short period of time by pressing G or using the drop button.
HAVE FUN !
Pretty cool game! Some interesting rooms. I liked the spinning room - it reminded me of that one scene from Inception (Inception - Hallway Fights (HDR - 4K - 5.1) - YouTube) and I liked the idea of chess, that was very cool. but I didn’t know what I was meant to do and pushed the queen around hoping something would happen and got it stuck against the wall, then the corner and couldn’t get it out again. Maybe some sort of invisible rail around the chess board would help that. It wasn’t only until I fully read your post that I understood what to do!
This is my submission,
took me 10 days to complete.
It is a Simple puzzle game where Santa forgot to prepare gifts and as a fellow trustworthy elf, you must help santa finding and crafting those gifts
3 portals lead to 3 different levels with distinguished objectives !
1.1. The forest
1.2. The Graveyard
1.3. The Candyland
Took serious attention in level designing, hope you like it
Hints:
3.1. Find boxes in the forest, mostly are in the corners
3.2. Talk to father in the graveyard, and the boss will spawn
3.3. power-ups(looks like cake) can be found in the candyland, to boost your damage and kill the boss fast
My entry for the event! Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to implement some small quests I had planned, but I hope the scenery gives you joy like me when I built it
It’s purely singleplayer for the time being as your progress changes the world. I had to abandoned a lot of prior attempts at great ideas after meeting limitations, so started this game pretty late in to the event… so sadly it’s unfinished.
Don’t forget to complete quests by clicking the UI and claiming/completing the quest to progress!
What a wonderful winter event, that’s the best gift you could’ve given us this holiday season! Thank you to everyone who took part and congrats to the winners. Speaking of which, if you missed the stream, here are the winning entries:
