Draw some stuff. Win some stuff. Get some hugs!
In celebration of our first Game Club and the wonderfully cuddly game in focus, Nintendo World Report is holding an art competition!
I want to see what you, dear readers,
can come up with in response to the question;
“What
if
classic video games had a hug button?”.
What would
happen if that one favorite game of yours had a hug button
just like A Boy and His Blob? How would it be different? What would
happen? It's up to your creativity!
I'm looking for
cute, funny or ridiculous ideas, and we have a most epic prize
for the artwork that we deem the most worthy of adoration.
The prize we have on offer is an
original animation frame from A Boy and His Blob, framed and signed
by the development team at WayForward!
Rules:
1. To enter send us some artwork (it may be a
drawing, a short comic or an animated gif) and the title of the game to
contest(at)nintendoworldreport.com with the subject "hug button competition".
2. "Classic video
game" means "anything popular enough to have a fanbase", it can be from
any console generation including this one.
3. The game in question need not necessarily be on a Nintendo platform, but is preferred.
4. Deadline for entries is May 3, 2012, midnight EST.
5. Winners will be contacted by email. If they do not respond within 3 (three) days the prize will be awarded to someone else.
6. The winner is chosen at the discretion of the judges and is not open for review.
7. The
prize is an original, framed A Boy and His Blob animation frame, signed by the WayForward
team.
8. All entries become property of Nintendo
World Report to use
without permission.
9. Nintendo World Report
reserves the right to change the rules
at any time, without advance notice.
In the meantime, here's one example that my girlfriend and I collaborated on to get the ball rolling (click to see the full resolution, of course).
What if Zelda:
Ocarina of Time had a hug
button?I'll announce the winner and post up the entries we get in a few weeks' time, and keep checking back for more content in our first ever NWR Game Club.
Credit for the Link picture goes to myself and my gorgeous girlfriend. I'd give her the prize if I could.
