The Chitpunes « HTML Quest » album project is almost finished and I’ve already distributed some Christmas editions under the tree.

And speaking of Christmas, once the missus is back at school, I feel inspired to continue a little module I left behind for a Christmas mini-game project that the brother will be working on by next year?

Some sprites from the Xmas project in Delux Paint, Pype.
A simple little game, in the tradition of Nintendo’s Game&Watch, those little electronic games that were all the rage in the playground at the end of the 80s… A little Father Christmas who has to catch the gifts thrown to him by elves from his workshop… No more complicated than Parachute.

Packed into a short hour, the friendly music relies on excellent chiptune sounds from an Andromeda module. The introduction was actually my project started before the holidays, inspired by a pastiche of a school-themed Gauff’ song that my little lady and I were singing….

Xmasman vs The packs, a Flash game developed by the LabSET technical team in 2007
The brother will make some small sprites in Delux Paint, and the idea will stay there for a few years, before I take it out of the drawer for a Christmas Serious Game project made with my LabSET colleagues in 2007
