🎅 The Plot

This December, RalphCo™ is hosting an epic Christmas Party, with epic PRIZES! However, it seems all went wrong at the last second due to a power outage, which caused all the gifts – including YOURS – to be teleported all around the world! Now it’s your job to get them back…for some reason! Good luck, and try to stay alive long enough to retrieve your mysterious gift, in Stick Nodes: Merry Madness! Happy Holidays!

🎄 Prizes

Same idea as Treasure Trove, two categories and three winners per category!

• Best Animated ($100 first prize, $50 for two runner-ups)
• Most Creative ($100 first prize, $50 for two runner ups)

Payments will be made via Paypal (preferably, or some other payment processor). If not, some sort of gift card can be arranged.

You can only win one spot. The Best Animated category is simple enough, for the entries that are animated the best. Visuals such as character and background/object design will play a role in the judging as well. The Most Creative category is for entries that tackle the prompt in an interesting manner, or have a unique animation style, or are very funny/entertaining – some combination of these criteria.
