    Hey everyone, just wanted to get your thoughts on something, since I've never done a Jam before and I don't know what's proper. I've been continuing to work on my project a bit since the jam ended, and I'd love to keep updating the game.

     

    Is it OK to replace the itch.io project with new versions, or should I create a separate project going forward so that my original entry remains where it was at the deadline?

    A progress report so far:

     

    I've managed to get a lot done, although as I said at the beginning I had a head-start with a bunch of code I was able to reuse. Right now I have a placeholder Krampus sleigh flying around a snowy scene, shooting in place (with nothing to shoot), and the ability to land on a spot and deploy some Kramplings, who head into the house nearby to grab the naughty kid therein.

    Next will be having the Kramplings emerge with the naughty kid, detailing Krampus' sleigh and a gazillion or so other things.

     

    A few more sins- I'm planning on using everything submitted in this thread so far, and whatever comes next

     

    -Liking the Shins, then hating the Shins after everybody else started liking the Shins

     

    -claiming food allergies just to get attention

     

    -Aggrevated Brietbarting

     

    -Ironic facial hair

     

    -entering A.S.S. on the High-Score screen (old-timers will get this one)

     

    -being insufferably twee

    • Customer service simulator where you have to navigate through angry Christians who are upset over hearing the phrase "happy holidays"
    • Chestnuts roasting over an open FIREWATCH
    • You start off the game as a Nathan Drake/Lara Croft type character stealing treasures and killing enemies.  Once you "lose a life" you're prosecuted for all of the murders and property damage you've committed and caused, as well as desecrating national heritage sites and stealing priceless artefacts from indigenous peoples.  In the winter.

    just had to highlight the brilliance. In the winter. Damn near killed me.

    Hi everyone! I'm diving into this one with a Sleigh-driving sim where you send Krampus all around a suburban neighborhood picking up kids who have been naughty. I'll be building it in Unity, using the code from a hovercraft racing game I started a few years ago as a foundation.

     

    My thought is that as you're playing the game, you'll get assignments to pick up different children who've been naughty- you'll then need to go to their address and send your Kramplings in to get them. Along the way you'll battle something trying to stop you (I'm hoping to figure that out somewhere along the way)

     

    For one of my diversifiers, I'm asking you all for some suggestions of good sins that could come up on the assignments. They could be strange, funny, political, whatever- I'm imagining a card will come up on the screen with the target child's name, an address and a list of their offenses.

     

    To start off, here's a few I had come up with, which I'm confident you all can top:

     

    Broccoli refusal

     

    inadequate rap battle skills

     

    reposting bullshit on Facebook

     

    aggressive loitering

     

    giving live goldfish as presents

     

    not challenging the dominant paradigm

     

    starting every sentence with "I saw this TED talk once, and..."

     

    Hailing Hydra

     

    That should give you a sense of the tone I'm going for, but take it wherever you want.
