      can we start collecting suggestions for December?

      I thought that it would be cool to have a game with a Xmas ambience. Like these ones:

      • Daze Before Christmas (MegaDrive)
      • Daze Before Christmas (SNES)
      • Home Alone 2 (NES)
      • Home Alone 2 (SNES)
      • Batman Returns (NES)
      • Batman Returns (SNES)
      • Batman Returns (MegaDrive)

      Any other suggestions?

      • Useful topics
      • joystick-selection tool
      • rpie-art tool
      • achievements I made

        Home Alone 2 (SNES)

        I get how these tie into christmas, but how does Batman Returns tie in?

        Also, doing a quick search pretty much shows that most, if not all xmas games were just the worst. So maybe let not make xmas a requirement?

          Have you watched the movie? It has a Christmas ambiance, and so are the games.

                  I haven't had my Cheevos working lately bc I forgot my dingus password, but luckily I screenshot every ending on the Pi. I definitely used save states though.

                        Had to step away from attempting most of the month. Taking one last stab today at this.

                        Any ideas for next month?

                          I beat Kid Dracula with an hour and a half left in the month! WHEW!

                          Edit: My achievement shows 12-1 but it’s 10:40 PM EST on 11/30. DONT TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME RETROACHIEVEMENTS. 😡

                            I made a poll with some ideas for this month's game of the month. These are not exactly Christmas themed, but they are great games nonetheless.

                                @lilbud should not it be a game chosen by the winner of the month?

                                  @meleu oh yeah, sorry totally forgot.

                                  Ummm...who was the winner of this month? I believe multiple people won the challenge this month.

                                    We could determine it a couple ways I guess...

                                    • Most achievements?

                                    • Fastest to the achievement of beating the game without passwords or continues?

                                      Each one that completed the challenge suggest a game and we set a poll. My suggestion is Batman Returns (SNES).

                                        I’m going to suggest The Firemen(SNES). Haven’t really played it before but it looks very good and has some cheevos.
