Winterbells!​
1. Winterbells.
2. Here. I think it's also on android.
3. You jump a predetermined and consistent height as a rabbit, making sure to touch white, slightly ethereal bells on your ascent. If you fail to touch a white, slightly ethereal bell, you will fall, your run will end and your final score will be provided.
4. Score.
5. It's literally the most basic game in the world.
6. Basically, the issue with this challenge for me is that whatever game is elected, one person will have had experience with or played before, because they have to nominate it to be the challenge themselves. So I sorta went with a game which I find quite fun, is incredibly generic, and one which you don't really improve greatly at with practice. If you've ever played like, doodle jump, happy jump, the little 16-bit game in Splatoon... that's Winterbells. Oh, and birds are double points. Such an exciting, differentiating gimmick! It's basic enough for skill to shine through, but also not deep enough to require loads of time investment to hone your skills over.
7. Reveillak! The Challesian winter holiday, held on the winter solstice, is all about communing with spirits and the dead. Is there really a game that encompasses the spirit of the holiday more than a rabbit trying to reach great heights by jumping on bells? Of course not! Naturally it's all symbolic of the acceptance of the dead which the people who are celebrating the festival are experiencing. Each bell is a memory of the loved one which they cherish, and the bunny bouncing off of the bell is a metaphor for them moving on from those memories, as the bells disappear when the rabbit touches them. The greater the height, the greater the height of the wellbeing of the living and the more successful the final grieving process!
 
... and once again, Celever fails the reading portion of the Challenge. :p

Sorry to see you go Luis, but thank you for participating! <3
 
I actually have a pretty great idea for it but I keep putting it off. I wonder if I'll even have a chance to run it at this point. :p
 
So I have exactly zero experience with computer games. If anyone, uh, has an idea they'd be willing to barter for SoSMA or something, I'd love to discuss it. ^.^

There were two ideas proposed by ex-players, just, you know, FYI. :U
 
Far, I can't believe there is only 4 of us left, I know there should be 6 left since two left of their own choice, but damn, this is crazy. It kinda doesn't feel real, we have been doing this for so long now, I don't know what I am going to do once it is over. I feel like there will be a huge hole in my life.

Well, The FG team will likely hold applications for who will host the next one and then you can join in that. :p
 
All submissions have been received! Thank you to all participants! :D

I'll have to check out the games when I have a chance before I make my decision, so expect the next phase of the challenge to start up sometime in the next few days. I will begin it before I go in for my surgery no matter what, so expect an update by late Thursday at the very latest.
 
So, I had fun playing through all the games today. There weren't any I disliked, but there was one that I kept wanting to play the most and it ended up being a pretty clear winner.

So, expect the actual start of Part 2 to go up either tomorrow or Thursday. It will probably last for a week or more while I work on recovering from my surgery, so you guys will have plenty of time to play no matter what.
 
Yeah, it sucks when life gets in the way of stuff. But I'm not surprised hat we've had a couple dropouts along the way, especially when you consider that this game has been going about 11 months so far!
