The 7 days of Clickmas might be over, but it's legacy lives on! The Daily Click admin Chris Street (Circy) who judged many of the competitions featured has provided his own Christmas gift by providing copies of many of the missing games from those compos.

So, here's a re-cap of the Clickmas Countdown:

• Day 1: Custom levels
• Day 2: TDC Xmas Compo 2005
• Day 3: TDC Xmas Compo 2006
• Day 4: Klikkety Klik Xmas Compo 2001
• Day 5: TDC Xmas Compo 2003 - Winter Sports
• Day 6: TDC Xmas Compo 2004 - Platformers
• Day 7: Selection box

Thanks to Circy, we have now found the five missing games from the 2005 Christmas Competition:

• 14th: Christmas Michi by George Lambert 
• 16th: Quest To Save The Christmas With Santa Claus by Perttu Tuovinen & Jaani Kekalainen
• 18th: Muksi's Xmas by Borgi
• 19th: A Santa Story by Reno McDonald
• 21st: Santa Claus Rescue Squad by Stuart Browne

We've also now got Gool 2: The Christmas Catastrophe by Alexander Filipowski (8th place) and Bryan and Ivan: Frozen Chill by Tom Carlier (YuYu) (15th place) from the 2006 competition.

Gool 2 by Alexander Filipowski used The Mode 7 Ex object by Marcello Bastea-Forte to profile a 3D experience.

On behalf of The Daily Click, I'd like to wish each and every one of you a very merry Christmas!

This is the last day of TDC and Kliktopia's seven days of Clickmas, and I'd like to do a bit of reflection before getting to the new content. Going back through all these old Christmas competitions has helped me appreicate how much work people have put into an amazing collective effort. Thanks to the organisers, the judges, the developers, and the players who were part of a process and a community that resulted in the creation of new freeware creations that are their own kind of interactive magic which would not have otherwise existed. And of course thanks to the variety of people who contributed to the archival of these games which means that so many of them are still available despite the unreliable of old file hosting services and old hard drives.

These Christmas games express the creativity of their authors through the concept, the gameplay, and the music and sound. Even when the authors used pre-made music and effects, etc., they made creative choices. These games were not made in isolation, they were inspired both by the themes, the community, and the culture of the time. For a number of people, Christmas may also be an extra special holiday for them as Clickers because it is when they may have gotten their first Click produt, or purchased an upgrade to a newer version, or it might be when they got the computer they used to develop the games. It might also have provided peopel with time off to allow them to develop and/or play the games.

So, now on with the games. For Christmas day I'll give you a selection box of ten Christmas games. That's right, the theme today is basically that there is no unified theme. Enjoy the variety!

[Competition Winner] Christmas Time Heroes by Strife

See download page on The Daily Click

Read judge's reviews

Download via Kliktopia

I thought I'd sneak in one lass entry to a TDC Christmas Compo, the winner of the 2010 Christmas Competition. Luckily it was no trouble tracking this game down, as the game's entry on The Daily Click still had a working link. A Christmas miracle!"

This is a deliberately difficult platformer to compensate for its short length. According to judge Assault Andy said the game was "awesome", and particularly praised its"Amazing storyline. Quite engaging". 

[Donated] Atomic Santa: Christmas Omega by Jay Tholen

Download via Kliktopia

Christmas is a time for giving, and Jay Tholen kindly donated this game which was historically for sale for $0.99 on its discontinued itch.io page.

According to the author: "Santa and Rudolph, lone warriors for keeping Christ in Christmas, stand against an Illuminati Onslaught after the North Pole is nuked. Atomic Santa: Christmas Omega is a short-but-sweet festive shmup/platformer experience by Jay Tholen."

More recently, the author also noted that: "It's dated by being a satire on the politics of like 10 years ago".

[Non-English] Santa Cross by Warano (Straw)

Download via Kliktopia

You don't need to speak Japanese to enjoy this Christmas game, although looking at the machine-translated readme for instructions might be handy!

This game was contributed to Kliktopia by Peter, who has sent in a lot of Japanese games but has yet to get in touch via email or the Kliktopia Discord to say hi. If you're listening Peter, then please get in touch so we can thank you more directly for your archival efforts!

[Made as a gift] JJ's Doomsday Christmas by BigAl0104

BigAl0104's 2023 festive follow-up to Alex & Friends' Quest was made for his girlfriend, but shared with the world. Those on the Kliktopai Discord followed along with the development of this lovable platform adventure game.

[Educational] Santa Teaches Typing by Pixelthief

Download via Kliktopia

Made for The Daily Click's Christmas Competition 2010, this is one of the few (or only) educational Christmas-themed Click game. Unfortunately, it ranked poorly due to a lack of sound as that was a key criteron for the competition. Assault Andy praised it for being "actually quite compelling and fun", but warned about its punishing difficulty curve which goes from super easy at Stage 1 to super hard at Stage 3.

[Versus] Funny Furries 2 Xmas by Bastiaan de Jong

Download via Kliktopia

'Tis the season for a bit of combat. Made a few years before the more bloody Christmas Combat by 3kliksphilip, this 1999 game is part of a versus series that I did actually play back in the day, usually fighting against my brother (when we weren't playing Smile Kombat Gold by Smiley Productions).

[Fan Game] Merry Gear Solid 2 by 

Dowload via Kliktopia

See entry on Arthur Lee's website

While there are plenty of Christmas-themed South Park fangames to choose from and at least one Sonic fangame, when I think of games inspired by other franchises I think of the Merry Gear Solid games by Arthur 'Mr. Podunkian' Lee. We already featured the first title in the 2006 Compo, so I'll go with its sequel.

[Point & Click Adventure] Freddie Trims a Tree by Philip Williams

Entry on The Daily Click

Download via Kliktopia

This 1996 game is one of the first Christmas Click games I ever played. I asked the author's permission to port this short but charming point and click Klik & Play adeventure game over to Clickteam Fusion 2.5 back in 2018 and Philip responded immediately giving permission.

[Memorial] Christmas Card by Paul Boland

Download via Kliktopia

In honour of remembering those Clickers who are no longer with us to celebrate Christmas, I am including a 2001 Christmas Card from Paul Boland of KnightTrek Productions. Paul was a kind and generous soul who passed away on the 14th of January 2021. Although I only met him once (at Click Convention 2007) he is still in my thoughts and my heart.

[Hot off the press] Crazy Christmas by Jack or John

Entry on The Daily Click

Download via Kliktopia

I'll finish with a reminder of how people are continuing to make and update Click games by featuring the latest entry on The Daily Click, version 2 of Jack or John's 2023 Christma platformer. The latest release contains new secrets and level design.

I hope you enjoyed this selection box and check out the games that interest you. If you still want more than more Christmas games are available over at: https://kliktopia.org/christmas.html

P.S. If you want to get even more festive then you can go to https://create-games.com/skin.asp to change to TDC's Xmas Skin.

We're at Christmas Eve and it's time for the penultimate festive gift, which is the return of The Daily Click's 2004 Christmas Competition. I have fixed the links to point to archives provided by Chris Street (Circy) and added the screenshots to the page. The theme for 2004 was platformers made in the style of a certain plumber... but more festive.

As noted in Circy's winner announcement post the top two entrants were as follows:

1st: Super Santa Snowland
Author: Mårten Brüggemann (Eve)


Kliktopia entry
Direct download

CHRIS: A great, fun game with some wonderful graphics. Eve has really captured the essence of Christmas and Mario, and blended them both together. First rate. The storyline is perhaps a little predictable, but the subliminal gameplay is more than satisfying. One nit-picking point, however, is that the controls can seem to be a little fiddly. I've often bounced off blocks into enemies, thus resulting in death. Other than this annoying niggle, I see no reason why Eve shouldn't win this competition.

PETE: This is another strong contender. It boasts what are the best graphics of the competition by far - lovely pixel work and great little effects to complement it. Christmassiness naturally shines through because of this. The game is quite hard and sometimes feels unresponsive so I docked it a few marks for gameplay. Marioishness, however, is top notch. The game simply IS Mario, without actually being a Mario clone, if that makes sense. The speed of the characters is slightly off so I didn't award full marks for this category.

SHAB: Another good entry! This one is more like the classic Mario than the newer ones, which normally wouldn’t be a bad thing, if the engine responded properly. Not sure If it was just me or not, but I found myself fighting the controls more than anything. This hurts the game in the worse way.

2nd: Fat Santa
Author: Greg Percy (Dr Evil Face/ Skinny)


Kliktopia entry

Direct download

CHRIS: Very not bad at all. The engine is virtually identical to the Mario style which was being asked of everyone, but it was timer based! Because of this the height jumping varied, no matter how long I held SHIFT down. It was hard to stop Santa while he was running as well. Marks lost on the gameplay front for this. Early levels were Mario-esque, but they seemed to turn into standard platform levels later on and the Mario feel got lost on occasion. Santa himself looked very similar to Mario as well. The storyline was quite amusing and effort was clearly put into it, but it looked a little scrappy perhaps. A nice touch was the level map; the only entrant to add this. Graphics overall were nice, although on some levels it was hard to tell which bits were platforms. Summing up, a pretty good effort, but not as good as it could have been, which is a real pity.

PETE: Another excellent entry, very very Mario-like, although I deducted a mark for the ripped music - a minor blemish in an otherwise great game. The graphics are certainly Mario-esque without being too like their inspiration. The story is standard fare (another elf rebellion) but well integrated.

SHAB: As I think this game reached the goal of being the most "Mario-ish" It got the highest marks in that category. Graphics were alright though some bugs present themselves during gameplay, so some minor marks off for that.

In other news, if you haven't checked it out there is currently a Clickteam Christmas Sale on Steam and on itch.io too.

For Day 5 we have The Daily Click's 2003 Christmas Competition run by Pete Nattress. Most of these games were found on the Internet Archive, with the exception of Super Snowboarder where version 1.1 was from my old downloads folder.

The theme for the 2003 competition was "Winter Sports", and many entrants went with ski games, some reminiscent of the Click demo game Ski Monday.

I'll run through the games in order of placement, with the overall summary from each of the judges for the three winners.

If you want to read what exactly the judges said about the games you can find the opinions HERE for Pete, HERE for Circy, HERE for Shab and HERE for Shab.

1st: Freestyle Santa by Tom Carlier (YuYu)

See entry on Kliktopia
Download the game directly

Circy: "94/100. This is brilliant! The graphics have an amazing chunkiness - obviously rendered somehow, but the whole game oozes class and dignity. The engine is a little difficult to get to grips with, but eventually you'll master it. Easily the best entrant in my opinion, Freestyle Santa clearly deserves to win this competition. Excellent work."

Pete: "75/100. This game is a clear contender for the top place. The controls take a while to get used to; in fact, they are the most annoying thing about it, but it is fun once you get the knack. The 3D rendered graphics are quite nice although I do have a few qualms with the blocky main Santa sprite. Music is suitably Christmassy and sounds fit well. A very nice effort all round!"

Shab: "49/100. Hey it's good, but not great."

2nd: DownTime by Paul Jeffries

Pete: "68/100. Another of my favourite entries, Paul Jeffries has really pushed MMF and pulled off a pretty impressive feat with this pseudo-3D game. The presentation is top notch, especially the title screen. I think where the game lets itself down is with the rather blocky graphics and sometimes unapparent gameplay – it is an easy game and you may find yourself just sitting there whilst the sleigh drives itself. Sound and music are also a bit lax. Technically, this is a brilliant game but the struggling gameplay issues are stopping it from reaching my number one spot.

Circy: "67/100. A very impressive technical example of what MMF can do; Paul Jeffries has coded this very well. However, the bobsleigh track looks a little naff, and it's slow, so that’s why the graphics aren't as high as they could be. Horrible music, and the whole game gets a little boring. But sheer technical brilliance overall."

Shab: "61/100. The graphics are a mixed bag, and to me the game itself wasn't all that interesting."

3rd: Santa goes Tossing before Christmas by Lasagnasoft

Shab: "69/100. This game is fun, but you won't find yourself playing it for hours."

Circy: "57/100. Interesting mini-game here, rather than a full production. The idea is to throw a snowball as far as you can. This isn't technically a winter sport, as there's this little Olympic event called "The Javelin". Well coded, mind, and probably great fun in short bursts. But not bad stuff overall."

Pete: "56/100. Comment: This is a neatly presented but disappointingly simple button basher. I do love the cartoony graphics though, along with the dangerously ambiguous title. The high score table is nice too, but this game is purely all mouth and no balls, and becomes boring pretty quickly. Music is appropriate but unoriginal and the sound effects leave something to be desired. As for the whole winter sport thing… it’s really not a sport. Low marks for that."

I'm not sure what the first Christmas click competition is, but an earlier one was run by Klikkety Klik / TFGF back in 2001.

Thanks to a November 2002 Daily Click post from Chris Street and on the old Klikkety Klik website, I have identified the games and brought back the 2nd and 3rd place winners. I have tracked these games down and added them to Kliktopia so that you can enjoy these slices of Clickmas history from some well-known developers and studios!

Gingerbread Man by Akira of Natomic Studios (2nd place)

See entry on Kliktopia

Download the game directly

Description: According to Natomic "It's basically a small one level long Platform/Puzzle game."

Story: According to Natomic "Some evil misguided candies have kidnapped Santa Claus. If he is not rescued he will be tried and put to death for his acts of manslaughter against nearly a third of the population of Candy Land. Mrs. Claus entrusted you with the task of going to Candy Land and rescuing old Saint Nick. Make your way through the level by dodging gum drops and hard caramel candy. Collect the keys needed to open the chests and find Santa."

Archival history: Thanks to Yxkalle's work for Kliktopia I found that the Andi Smith's Natomic GitHub from 2014 features both the game and its source code.

Santa Pies by Andrew Mather of O3 (3rd place)

See entry on Kliktopia

Download the game directly

Description: According to O3: "Simple christmas game, You have sixty seconds to eat as many mince pies as possible. Control Santa, and eat them pies!!! Features internet score submission so you can find out just who ate all the pies. The game was coded in Jamagic and created for the Klikkety Klik code can be found in the Tutorials section at JamInn."

Archival history: This is one of the few 2D games made in Jamagic. I found version 1.2 of the game in Podunkian's archive, and I found the source code on my computer downloaded from the Clickteam forum back in July 2002. According to the source, the origina game was made in just 2 days. Source code description from JamInn: "Open source 2d scrolling game, with eight directional movement, collision and animation control. Fully commented".

For Day 7 of TDC's 7 Days of Clickmas we bring you the 2006 Christmas Competition, which ended up running a bit late but had the advantage of allowing people to use Multimedia Fusion 2 for the games.

I have gone through all the entries to add working download links and screenshots. This time only two games are missing (Gool 2 and Bryan and Ivan: Frozen Chill) - I'll add those to the page if I get a hold of working copies.

A fewer games in 2006, but still an impressive haul, including some like Merry Gear Solid by Podunkian which went on to become Click classics. It also includes at least two games with level editors: Santasm 3 and Christmas Collector. If decide to create new levels for these old games then feel free to share them with us!

Most of these old games were preserved by Chris Street and contributed to the Kliktopia archive, so big thanks to Circy alongside everyone who participated in ths competition around 18 years ago.

As with the 2005 entries I have also now added this collection to the TDC's Click Museum to make it easier for people to find them in the future.

It is now Day 2 of the 7 days of Clickmas. Today's present is a trip back to The Daily Click Christmas Competition 2005.

A number of these games were already on Kliktopia, but half a dozen were not so I've either downloaded them from archive.org or found that they were in my backlog of games to add to the site.

I have added this game collection to The Click Museum, updating the relevant entry page to fix most of the entries to link to where they can be downloaded from The Daily Click and/or Kliktopia.

Click here to check out all of the 2005 competition entries.

Here are the top 10 listable games from that competition:

1st: 386/500 The Elf Brothers CREATED BY: CYS MORE INFO: HERE! CYS's Final Fantasy-esque battle engine blew us out of the water, and the gameplay was addictive and funny. A perfect recipe for winning! CYS wins a copy of the now renamed MMF2: Developer.

2nd: 385/500 Christmas Conquest 2 CREATED BY: Snerlin MORE INFO: HERE! Life can be bitterly cruel. Snerlin misses out on the top prize by one point. Normally I wouldn't do this, but because of this potentially evil twist of fate, a special consolation copy of MMF2 (Standard) has been arranged for Snerlin - time to celebrate :)

3rd: 380/500 Christmas Stone CREATED BY: Hishnak MORE INFO: HERE! Coming in at a very respectable third place is Christmas Stone by Hishnak, a platformer which was liked by all. Sadly, no prize, but you get respect - which is infinately better than a copy of MMF2. Well... perhaps not.

4th: 361/500 Little Santa Little Adventure CREATED BY: Scaneider MORE INFO: HERE! A small exploratory platformer from Scaneider. The game was deemed as a whole as being of a high standard, but it was also considered to be very hard - maybe unfairly so. Still, it's really worth looking at.

5th: 357/500 Barfer Sickmess CREATED BY: Zapper MORE INFO: HERE! 5th place; a very nice shoot-em-up - one of the rare games that isn't actually a platformer! Barfer Sickmess has all the trimmings - fun gameplay, a co-op mode and a running demo if you leave the title page running. Despite these traits, many judges thought that the code was shockingly disorganised.

7th: 353/500 Santa Hanta CREATED BY: Claudius Bartmuß MORE INFO: HERE! Scraping in just below Radix entry, this game is great for a quick ten minute blast. Santa Hanta is arguably the most well presented game in this competition which shows a great deal of professionalism.

8th: 342/500 Robot Santa CREATED BY: Ben Mercer MORE INFO: HERE! Pretty much a pure destruction simulator, and in eighth place is Robot Santa by Ben Mercer. This game fell down primarily on the lack of a Christmas theme.

9th: 331/500 Dungeon TV Christmas Special CREATED BY: Hayo Van Reek MORE INFO: HERE! So where were the Christmas references again? That was the question asked by most of the judges that really knocked down this fun twist on the Sokoban-style gameplay. D'oh!

10th: 327/500 X-Mess CREATED BY: Blueberry_Pie MORE INFO: HERE! Highly Gameboyish platformer with flawed jumping and plenty of penguins.

11th: 322/500 Silent Night CREATED BY:Dustin Gunn MORE INFO: HERE! Stealthy platformer with some Metal Gear Solid parodic references. Sadly it falls just short of the Top 10, but still a very worthy game.

It's time for a Clickmas countdown in the run-up to Christmas Day!

Today's gifts are two custom levels made as part of last year's 'secret' santa gift exchange:

Full Circle by LordHannu (Knytt Stories)

A level of medium difficulty.

Make Me Think by Joshtek (Santasm 3)

Five custom tower floors of medium difficulty.

Jay Tholen, known for '90s internet simulator Hypnospace Outlaw (2019) and his Click games like Epidemic (2008), Bottled Water Man Bash (2011) and Outlaw's predecessor Hypnospace Enforcer, has now revealed that his homage to Click sound effects of yore will be dropping tomorrow.

Fresh Bacon BETA by MinkoedZamorVedro

Rather than simply being updated, last year's Halloween Boss Battle by MinkoedZamorVedro has been transformed into a full game under a new name.

According to the author: "This game has been made for the Revamp Rumble. I have worked all that night, so the description can be unreadable...

Story: Well, another year in a row, that pumpkin wants to prevent our friend Golden Pork from living his ordinary piggy life... Actually they just gave me a second chance to make a game for the halloween competition.

Gameplay: This game is a basic platformer where you control a Golden Pork. Use arrows to move, shift to jump and Z to shoot. You can collect different bonuses, that can help you defeat enemies. Also you can collect power-ups, which will upgrade your damage. Last but not least, you can collect money, for which you can upgrade your max health, attack power and attack range."

Swipe-o'-Lantern by Joshtek

Because I wasn't running the competition I ended up taking part this time... enjoy my entry for Fusionween 2024!

Acording to the author: "Swipe your mouse to launch your pumpkin across the screen to collect as many candies as you can before the timer runs out.Swipe your mouse to launch your pumpkin across the screen to collect as many candies as you can before the timer runs out. Hit anything too hard: YOU EXPLODE! Hit the bomb that looks like an orb: YOU EXPLODE!

Ashley Evens, the Huntress of the Monsters by  Indigo Steel Shield

A game that is all about learning and countering the attack patternd of a variety of enemies, here is a Halloween game from the creator of games such as the recently updated Circle of the Shadow Wraiths.

Acording to the author: "This is a VERY simple game that I have submitted for the 2024 Fusionween contest. It is an action game with several stages. It is all over-head, top-down action. You can move in four directions as you shot blots at the enemy. The goal is the defeat all of the enemies during each stage."
