VOTING THREAD for OHR's Monster Combo Art Contest 2016

Post by Spoonweaver »

Well, the time has come to stop accepting entries and start accepting votes for this contest.
There weren't as many entries as last time, but we have some great ones to work with regardless of that. Quality over quantity!

Since there is only 4 entries, I've decided they will almost all become magnets this year. That said, we only need to find first place, rather than 2nd and 3rd, to decide which one of these bad boys or girls will be the mascot of this year's ohr bundle. So, instead of normal voting rules, I've decided to go with a simple poll.

Speaking of the 2016 OHR bundle, now's a good time to start taking nominees.
If there's a game you think deserves a little bit of extra exposure, let me know.
It's fine if you're just trying to shamelessly self promote, in fact I welcome it.

VOTING ENDS 4/4/16
Nominating, far after that.

So... what was the requirement for sprites to fit into a backdrop or enemy sprite for?

I think we had some great games released late last year... but we wanted to stick to complete games, didn't we? The Unofficial List of Complete OHR Games probably hasn't been updated in a year.

It's kind of hard to tell if a game is complete or not.
Mostly, I'm hoping for the creator's ok, which normally means it's complete, and the backing of at least a small number of people from the community

So, it looks like Cactus King by Soda Piggy is our clear and present winner here.
Sorry it took me so long to officially post this. It seems the guy that did the magnets for the previous year's contest is no longer available which has led me to find a new magnet source. This sent me down a lot of roads filled with different options. Options I haven't sorted through yet.

I plan to have the magnets ready by the end of the HOT:OHR contest.

Were you going to take nominations for additional magnet designs? Last year there were far more than four. Also, are these magnets only for HotOHR contestants? Oh no!!

Well, right now there are no magnets.
I have to find a new source.
Originally, my magnet source let me submit several designs for 1 bunch. Every source I've looked into this year has only allowed for 1 design per bunch. So, as of right now, there will only be these designs.
The type of magnet may also change.
As far as only contestants getting them, that will depend on the order amount I end up getting.

I don't want any magnets, if that affects anything. I forget what the criteria for them was.

I Pm'd you both but in case you didn't see that, I need your address if you'd like your magnets.

So, uh, is there any process for getting your hands on a highly desirable exclusive Limited Edition 2016 Monster Combo Art Fridge Magnet if you aren't in the exclusive club of People Who Submitted Monster Combo Art? *Gasp* Were we meant to make requests back in April?
