If you all want, I can run as official commish for this event. Here's what I'm willing to do:

So, I'm in, and I'll be using Allegro 5. I prefer Windows XP or later, so Allegro 5 is fine for that. I may use Eagle, I may not, but if I do I will provide binaries so my proggie can be built from source.

Thanks, Eric. Two more "aye's" and I'll call it official. We originally mentioned uploading the games here on the thread...but that wouldn't be very secret. We'll have to come up with a delivery method. I would say that the gifts need to remain a secret until January 1st so the receiver has a week or so after Christmas to play their game all to themselves. ------------ |

We can PM the games to the 'commish' and he can PM the games to the recipients. My Website! | EAGLE GUI Library Demos | My Deviant Art Gallery | Spiraloid Preview | A4 FontMaker | Skyline! (Missile Defense) Eagle and Allegro 5 binaries | Older Allegro 4 and 5 binaries | Allegro 5 compile guide |

Onewing, when we launch could you start a new thread so that we have "official" rules and up-to-date list of participants in OP? -- |

Are we supposed to be submitting wish lists? Or is it a free for all? My Website! | EAGLE GUI Library Demos | My Deviant Art Gallery | Spiraloid Preview | A4 FontMaker | Skyline! (Missile Defense) Eagle and Allegro 5 binaries | Older Allegro 4 and 5 binaries | Allegro 5 compile guide |

My wishlist: make an isometric turn-based shooter that features rabbits made of meatballs on a journey to flush their pet goldfish down the local cesspool. Along the way, the rabbits learn the true meaning of Christmas: getting some sweet gifts. Thanks in advance! (Only joking, of course.)

Woot, progress! I'll speak in Central Standard Time (GMT -6) since that's the timezone I'm in... Alright, this is what I got thus far: Participants:
Title: KrampusHack Registration: Late Registration: Due Date: Your assignment: Keep your game gift a secret! Play it and spend some time to write a thoughtful review. Send the review back to the secret santa. Try to do so before January 1, 2017. On January 2017, everyone please post your game on the allegro.cc Depot! Thoughts? ------------ |

Sounds good to me! Just to confirm, there's no "wishlist" for KrampusHack? Just to personalize it for whomever one receives to make a game for? What if I don't know anything about that person?

We should strive to provide some simple request/guideline for our game. For example, I like cats. So something with cats would make me extra happy. [edit:] Oh yea, BTW: yay! super excited about KrampusHack! -- |

Good idea! My request: throwing in a cheesecake or two for me would be awesome (it's my favorite dessert). Or anything with dogs ( Edit

I like dungeons. Bonus if there are dragons. Are we supposed to provide a blog in the official thread without giving Inc anything away? Typos courtesy of my phone.

+1 for Onewing. Thanks for picking this up. I'm looking forward to this. I'll try to keep a progress log in the official thread. It's going to be tricky to do so without giving anything away, but I'll try anyway... Oh, and my wishlist: I like games that teach me something, i.e. an educational game. -- |

Is anyone using VS, or do all the Windows people here use gcc? If the latter, a basic directory structure could be used by everyone, and then a makefile could be written, and used by everyone, that will work on all platforms.

Oh, wanted to note: Eric Johnson said: By the way, the game doesn't have the be Christmas themed, does it? Games don't have to be Christmas themed, but they usually are. -- |

Well I plan on sticking to stock allegro + giving a folder of .c/.h .exe/.dll and data files. (\ /) |
