Does "everything" include the pool, jacuzzi, bikes and "Kurtaxe"?

Well, there is no DB entry for
Barn Runner: The Rich Dame Who Cut The Cheese (Bake Sale)
Patchwork (the DB entry was only added this year, so it should be for next year's awards)
Cosmos Quest IV: The Ayatolian March

I thought a game is only eligible if there is a games page entry made in the previous year, no matter when it was created.
I just want to play the games for the awards now, so I can nominate. The other games I can play afterwards.

I wanted to start playing the games from the "For your consideration" thread only to realize that many of the games there aren't even eligible for the awards because they are either not in the database or or weren't added last year. This is pretty annoying. Could the authors (or a moderator) please remove those games from the thread?

I should really do another take on that book...

@Andail it is very helpful indeed. I'm not sure if I'm going to redo the whole image because it was just for practising, but I got some good ideas for future paintings from your sketch.

Happy B-day, Francisco!

Ok, I added stuff outside to move the horizon.

And I added an adjustment layer for brightness/contrast and did work on the left most part with it. Is this an improvement or not? I'm not sure if this is the way to go...

The user Alasher seems to play a lot of games recently and votes for them on the games page. He/She doesn't seem to want to add a comment - however, there is still an empty comment added which is also shown in the recent comment list. I think empty comments or such consisting only of whitespace should not be shown.

Thanks for your comments!

@Iceboty V7000a: I thought the window content could be exchanged to make a 3-frame background. But parallax scrolling is an even better idea.
I'll try to increase the contrast.

@Babar: Do you mean that I should move the window content upwards so the horizon seems to be higher? I'll try to make more details.

Hi!

For the most recent background blitz I made this picture. I tried a completely new style and would like to get some C&C on how to improve it.



I know the composition is boring but I was making this BG with playability in mind. I really wanted to have a scrolling room for this. That's also why the perspective is off on several places.

Cheers, cat

There is "piano" several times written on the cover which makes it kinda redundant and boring. Could you write "Performed by ....." instead of "piano" again?

Hi Lynn,

a few hints

Spoiler

Do you know what you are going to need the fruit for?

[close]

Spoiler

Take a look at stuff and persons at the fair (using right click), you might get a hint there

Spoiler

Maybe this fruit can cause some confusion and distract people?

Solution

Take the tomato.

There is also a special thread where you can ask for more help with the game:

I showed the link with the house to Bernhard and now he is a possible too - that would also sort out the double bed issue for me

As soon as the dates (and then my vacation) are confirmed, I can pay my full share. And I think I prefer m0ds' house, it seems to be better suited for our needs (pool and jacuzzi - that's like Italy and Ireland in one place!).

Sat-Sat sounds good, as m0ds said, it's easier to take that time off from work. Also most houses are only rented Sat-Sat.

Oh, and please move me to the list of probable attendees

Great idea! I'll try that this weekend.

Oh no, too bad. I'd actually prefer an earlier date but I hope it will still be possible for me to come.

[Idea:]

Alright, I'll start to vote:

Idea: selmiak
Atmosphere: selmiak
Design: Ilyich
Composition: yarooze
Functionality: Ilyich
Technique: Ilyich

Vague hint:

Spoiler

Maybe you have to press him to give it to you? What is he afraid of?

Spoiler

He is afraid that you prove that he is cheating.

Direct solution:

Spoiler

Grab his cards while he is drinking.

Spoiler

Take a closer look at the card.

Yes. You can add your games for next year's awards.

@gspit1123 I hope you were able to complete the game with Tabata's help?
