DESIGN A VIDEO GAME VALENTINE: 3 WINNERS, $75, $50, $25
We want to see your creative side again! Design a Valentine with a video game theme - a Valentine for a gamer? A Valentine for your beloved game character? A Valentine that would fit in your favorite game? It's up to you, but it should fit the theme.
- Artwork should be gaming related, and in the spirit of Valentine's Day (however it is for you ;))
- Artwork must be original.
- Submit your artwork in the comments below or via PM to me, Cat, via YouTube or image. Included in the video or image should be your N4G username (and not photoshopped on top, we’re using this to save time weeding out cheating cheaters from cheatertown)
- While multiple works are accepted from one user, each work is considered its own submission unless presented as a coherent series with one work identified as representative of the whole
- If you submit artwork that is not yours you’re DQed…from all 2014 contests. And you have to send cgoodno flowers and chocolates. Cheating scoundrels cover S&H.
- Site TOU apply
- Winners chosen by HAVA staff

WTMG's Leo Faria: "A Difficult Game About Climbing is obviously frustrating, and I don’t exactly think it’s a fun pasttime, but it’s exponentially more enjoyable than the horrendous Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy. It’s actually beatable with enough trial and error. Its mechanics, whilst not exactly polished to the brim, work as intended, with no intentional input lag. It’s still clearly meant for Let’s Play youtubers to film themselves losing their minds over it, but it can still be a passable challenge if you’re up for the task."
WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "Overall, I think Stitch is an ultra quaint title that oozes warmth and welcome in gameplay and visual presentation, and is just such a decompression tool after a long day doing literally anything. It gives me such joy and relaxation to bring together the numbers and colors until I’ve made a bicycle or a nutcracker or whatever. I’ll do Christmas puzzles in April, it’s fine and the game doesn’t judge me. Unlock more and more pieces, don’t wait for power ups or villains because there are none, and just keep making yourself happy. If games are art, this one is a sweater my mom made for me, and I’m wearing it to keep out any and all chilly elements. But, just like mom, I’ll only pretend to listen."
This is very cool, gives us creative gamers a thing or two to work on.
Artwork AND User Reviews! Why that didn't happen in December staff? >:(
*Deep breaths* Alright! I wonder how the Valentine artworks would be. Good luck everyone!
Can I choose to send cgoodno flowers and chocolate any ways?
Good idea for February, Cat. Good luck to everyone. Hope to see gaffyh (I think that's correct username) churns up another strange drawing.
Looking forward to more gaming arty goodness!
It'd be cool to have an N4G artwork page. All submissions can go there so people can go and check out all the artwork submitted in month X.
