Still working on the homebrew database but for now here are the winners. I had to lump in the single Wii entry as there was no separate prize pool for Wii this year. Although not as many entries as in the past still some quality results. Thanks for another great year and I hope to make things a bit more interesting this year.

Very nice work, an RTS is not a small endeavor and your game is playable if somewhat lacking in polish. The graphics
were a bit sparse but they worked. An amazing amount of room for improvement with a good start…I can see this game
actually being playable soon.

Was pretty fun, if only it had a goal and one more board/enemy type. The graphics were great if a bit glitchy at
the polygon seams.

Second Place: Electric Snow

Very simple gameplay that turned out to be rather addictive…enough so that my 8 year old wanted it on his DS and my Mother-
in-law spent several minutes playing it. Good work.

And the runner ups in no particular order:

Comments: Cute little maze game with quality graphics and nice sound. Not terribly exciting
but well done for what it was.

Well..not much of a christmas trivia buff so didnt do all that hot. Seemed a bit buggy at times with the snow
ball animations rolling up/down the hill.

Not very wintery and not very gamey but pretty useful in and of itself…could not actually get it to connect
but probably an error on my part and did not try to hard since without a wintery theme or gameplay its pretty
difficult for an entry to compete.

Pollished and interesting presentation, the gameplay was a bit challenging. It could have used an interactive
tutorial to demonstrait the purpose of each elemental power as i never quite go the hang of employing them.

Well, the wintery theme was a bit slapped on but the gameplay was pretty fun if a bit too hard to be engrosing.
The lack of sound and music really hurt you…and how hard would it have been to slap in a sleigh in instead of a
helicopter! :)
