... same here - readable, but not "comfy"

(and the bg-color hurts badly  )

(because of and) in relation to the clue:
Orange County?

                   
Best wishes for having a wonderful christmas-time to all of you
and lot of happy adventuring!

Nice card/bg Dave - thank you!
           
.. and best wishes for you, too!

@Cleanic
I see quite clearly an Egyptian symbol, so there is definetely an Egyptian reference and it's also a good idea!  

Pharaoh Atabat's Death Mask:

@Arjon
A cool idea well done!  



EDIT:
A big thanx to all of you, who already participated!

At first I thought about adding a second shape because it seemed very difficoult, but hey â€" there is such an incredible amount of fantasy in this community! â€" It's near to unbelievable!
                              

Since an other shape obviously isn't neccessary, I was able to take some time for the trophies. They are now placed in the first post, waiting for you to be picked up.  Hope you like it!

Still I'd love to see even more entries. There's a lot of time left for those, who aren't in the right (egyptian) mood yet .
Let your imagiation flow and show us the possibilities.

Seems to me, that your admiral's hat got a scarab-curse from the mummy after robbing a pyramid,
so it has definitely an egyptian touch
... and I wouldn't touch it for sure! It's cool spooky! 

[So it's all up to you now]

  ... a new colorball is on it's way â€" hopefully you have some time and desire to participate.

This is the shape to deal with:





Now what to do with it? 
I'd like you to fill the shape with something that has a clear referrence to ...




You are allowed to rotate the shape, color the outline and use as much colors as you like to fullfill your task.


                                        


The voting will start at 08.01.2012 (forum-time).



Show your imagination and have fun!

EDIT:
... and finally here are the trophies:



                                


So it's all up to you now      

btw.

.... it will be dark and with a screwed sense of humor.

 ... looking forward to this one!

    for the votes and compliments
and a special thank you for the nice theme (including a cool trophy) to Darkdan!    



I'll try to come up with the next shape asap to keep those busy who want to  

.. and with love, where he least expects it. Can he, a man who has long lost track of the world, handle this digital emotion overload?

Prepare yourself for an introspective and surreal 32-bit colour extravaganza of digitalized emotions!

... feelings -whowhowhow- feelings ... 


Your update brings good news ~ can't wait for all these emotions to come and take me away!

[we both]

Huh? Only two participants for such an interesting theme?  :o


Adrian did a good entry and gladly he gets my vote for this indeed very usefull and well thought out tool.



@Adrian:
On the other side we both will get one of Darkdans nice trophies for sure ...
                 

These screenies are looking awesome    :o
(third reminds me of Beneath A Steel Sky)

Interesting characters â€" cool drawings â€" thrilling storyline ... I'll watch out for this one

with your project

[Idea]

Boah â€" why are there so much wonderful entries?  :o
The different styles doesn't make it easier to decide  *grmbl* 

                         
(took me about half an hour of admire the bg's for a decision)
There are defintely too much participants being brilliant in their style

Idea -  oraxon
Atmosphere -  Secret Fawful 
(nearly impossible - all the scenes are interesting and evoke a feeling, from curious over creepy to lonely ..., so I choose the one with the strongest pure winterfeeling)
Design -  anian
Composition -  zyndikate
Functionality -  nihilyst
Technique -  Darkdan

Wishing you a great time over there this weekend â€" have a lot of fun!       

Nice style! Cool poster!
... waiting for the candymanbigfoot and the new versions of men in black now 

[The MAGS-games of [name of month] are waiting for you to be played and voted!]

...So perhaps we should advertise the contest to get more people involved in playing the games and choosing the best one? More visibility would be nice.

                             

Something simple like a headline when entering the AGS-Forum might also help a bit to remind the members.  :

There is enough room in the banner (between the montage of game-pics and the AGS-Name for example) and it would be only for a week or so every month.

Late, but finally I found that da**ed last item needed (searching at wrong places made it last „a bit“ longer)

Now I can reply to your „hopes“:
Yes Darkdan, you made Tabata happy with your game!

I already loved Gilbert, when you showed the screenies in the GIP-Thread â€" even more after you came up with the studies of him, but playing this one is the best. You did very nice animations (not only to him!). This little fellow is such a cute character and well worked out. You did a good job for all the different characters being individual. You made wonderful unique backgrounds, created nice puzzles, told a lovely story and the dialogs are funny (especially Edgars).
Beside some little bugs, the only thing to change was the walking speed on the map. Since you already made an update with him faster walking, that should be okay now.
So I just have left the recommendation to take some beta-testers for the hopefully lot of more games to come to make them perfect.

You offered us a really wonderful story! Congatulation for your first one!

I like to hear the characters talking during the play.
Sometimes there is a (for me) „strange pronouncing“ or slang, so I hear it, but don't understand - but nontheless it is funny.

Voices bring the characters more to life and it is much easier to watch the animations.
If it becomes difficult for me I need to switch to the readable text. So if avaliable, I have text and voice activated.
