MERRY CHISTMAS, EVERYONE!!!
You know what that means, don't you? It's time for Glorious Trainwreckers all over the globe to share their funnest secret game desires with the world, then turn someone else's wishes into reality!
Here's How It Works:
"OH HECK YEAH I WANT TO PARTICIPATE THIS YEAR!", you must be saying to yourself. All you need to do is post a list below of what you want to see in a game. There are no guarantees you'll see absolutely everything, but I can guarantee you'll be pleasantly surprised with what is made for you. Additionally, posting your list below is a solid commitment that you will do your darnedest to create something from the wish list you've been assigned. Do your best. THE FATE OF CHISTMAS DEPENDS ON YOU.
Post questions below, folks! I will do my best to answer them ASAP.
On to the Santa GIFs...

John Moore doesn't make many video games! But he does watch ducks!
I spent today making this, for some reason. Then I realized there was a KOTM today. I am retroactively declaring this a KOTM project. It makes music. Illegal music. Diabolic music. Okay, by that I actually just mean there are tritones involved.

Mouse
there's already a game with a similar name, you see.
use your mouse to take stuff out of the pile and feed it to the cat.
pro-tip: he doesn't eat boots, but he most certainly does eat fish
UPDATE : due to many requests, I hosted this game directly on glorious trainwrecks.
A game about war. Use wasd + mouse.
might be disturbing

homezonez88
is a simulation manifestation of the neighborhood of comrade 186345218 (of sector 88) based on ambient memories and dream-material of their native living units, education centers and public spaces. building on the ambient hypnagogic reconstruction technology of the mid 20XX+, zones- autodeploys com ‘s neural gates in the earliest era of that technology.
although com’s neural matter is ceased, this reconstruction appears to present commune units, sub-dwellings, store houses, street zones, skree zones, and other living units popular around the time between the first and second Great Crisi within northeast midlantic. the home zones appear to demonstrate the latest trends in building of its time, from camuoflage dazzle -spec to smart slime technology at a time when comrades had to rapidly adapt to the chaos of enviro-breakdown and there was a rise in intentional coliving collectives and their need to build environmentally-resistant and adaptive living units.
at this point the original p-wave material sleep systems has not been entirely reconstructed and calibrated. while the software is owned by the museum, the compression codec from that era has not yet been located. in the meantime, please enjoy this series of rendered dwell-units from home zonez88 of comrade 186345218, recovered from a physical storage device when such technology existed, and saved as playable zonez-files. the scanfiles showing an individual are believed to be of comrade 186345218.
