Title: Sprite Jam - A Gift from a Secret Admirer
Post by: Pinback on Thu 22/06/2023 01:06:50
This month's Sprite Jam theme is; A Gift from a Secret Admirer.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The package seems unassuming at first but upon closer inspection; it appears more mysterious than at first glance.

You peel off the cordage and wrapping to reveal...

A Gift from a Secret Admirer!



Let loose! ;)

Um, when's the due date?  I think we kinda forgot to include when the contest ends.

Someone forced a big box of chocolates into your mailbox.
They melted all over the place.
You initially thought it was a bad joke but now you start to realize the truth: you've got a secret admirer.

I thought about making the final box from "A Date in the Park (https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/1851-a-date-in-the-park/)", but alas, no time.

Because I really couldn't think of any gift from a secret admirer that was more stupid than this...
...so I just had to draw it.

Ps. And also, after two years I felt it was time to say hi again.

Yeah for some reason being away for a decade I'm a little rusty on the usual timeframes too now hehe :)

I think we have some really nice entries so far I'm inclined to 'extend' for a couple more days...

So...since no one closed this Jam yet, and I'm in a bit of a drawing mood this week, I decided to bump this thread with a picture of a dead rat.

And for a bit of context, I also drew a quick scene with the hidden secret admirer waiting to see if his gift will be accepted. Just to proof that in a weird way (or at least according the strange thoughts floating around in the vast void of my brain) this actually makes sense for the theme of this Jam...

Spoiler
...plus I still like cats.

There's nothing like a cat proudly offering a disgusting dead rodent to its owner  :=

Looks like this thread kind of died. I wasn't running it, but I feel like at this point it must be voting time, lol.

Out of the above entries:
-Box of chocolates
-Redacted self-portrait
-Dead rodent

I vote for self-portrait because it's funny and conveys so much personality. I feel like would take a very particular kind of person to send such a thing.  (laugh)

Oops, I missed the voting/poll.

Thanks for the votes though :)
And I'll try to come up with a theme this weekend
