"Wormhole" by Xevdev
Merry Christmas!
After going philosphical yesterday, this time we're going back to praising the awesomeness of FUZE creations. I wanted this to be the ultimate conclusion to this Advent Calendar, so how to make the choice for the last game?
It all comes down to my personal favorite Fuze game of the year. Simply put, 'Wormhole' is just that. Now this is a statement!
For me, 'Wow Factor' is something that makes certain experiences to stick out from others. Frankly, the first time I saw this game in a Game Jam stream, it blew my mind. The technical aspect of this game is something otherwise unseen in Fuze. Those who have already played this, you know exactly what I mean.
So just the appearance of this game is extraordinary. But what's incredible is the fact that Xevdev turned a Game Jam demo program into something truly special. With shooting gameplay and the fact that the player needs to dodge these electrical poles (which is incredibly cool in its own right), it is just perfect now. If it doesn't make it into the Showcase Gallery, I don't know what can.
Obviously, everyone has their own preferences in terms of favorite games. But I think we can all appreciate the achievement that this game is.And that's it for my Advent Calendar 2020! It was unbelievably cool to look back on all of these games. Now all that is left to say is: Enjoy the holidays as much as you can, with your family or the people you love!

Good Choice! Well they all were really
-
Absolutely wonderful list! Hopefully this becomes a tradition of some sort.
-
Thank you so much, @CasualTie5, for putting this advent calendar together. You did a great job, and picked some amazing games. It was a fun look back on the year, and a great reminder to revisit some old favorites (and some new discoveries).
I will miss expectantly logging into the forum every day to see what today’s pick was. I really hope this will become an annual tradition from now on!
Merry Christmas!

I loved this, each day I was eager to see what was picked and I played some games that otherwise I would have missed.
Thanks to @CasualTie5 what a great idea and done so well!Happy Christmas everyone!
-
I’m glad I followed this too. I was missing out on some good stuff!
-
Thx for the kind words everyone! Cool to be part of such an awesome community
-
I hope to see this come back next year it was fun and shows off the hard work that goes into each Fuze project... It also feels great when you see your game make it into this!
-
Thank you for this, i love Advent calendars, especially this one. Great work everyone.

I felt like it was important to highlight all these games one last time. So here is my list of games and creators that I had before choosing 25. Treat it like the 'final credits' of FUZE in 2020, or something.

And probably a bunch more I didn't even mention.
That includes everyone that played around with Fuze for a few hours, but didn't yet find the motivation to go all out on a major project. It is absolutely normal to be overwhelmed with a text-based programming language! Only advice I can give is start small, and work your way up.
Shout-out also to all of these people that make interpretors of different languages and other advanced stuff. You're doing positively crazy work, keep it up!Thanks so much to all of you for being an awesome community!
And thank you in particular to the small but special Fuze Team!
Jon,
Dave,
Kat,
Martin,
Ben,
Will,
pianofire,
and with 100% certainty someone I forgot to mention; Sorry :DLast but not least I want to highlight Dave as the 'Face of Fuze'
Whether in tutorial videos or Game Jam streams: You're obviously doing the best you can to encourage people to achieve something in Fuze. What I admire the most is your dedication to every single game in any Game Jam stream. No matter if a game is unfinished, short or absolutely mind-blowing, you treat it with respect for being an achievement that one person put hours of work into. That is what I am most thankful for when it comes to FUZE in 2020.
Now to a successful 2021! I'm pretty sure we don't need to be quarantined in order to make games!

I’ve also really enjoyed this - a few games I never knew existed, and a few others I’d meant to try out and hadn’t. Thanks CasualTie5 for putting the work in, and of course to everyone else!
-
Impressive number of games and creators! Congratulations on your hard work Fuze game creators!
-
Wow. Thank you for including my game. I do hope to finish this when my day job gives me some time. I've enjoyed your advent calendar to see all the awesome games people are creating. Makes me wish i was 13 again and had this wonderful fuse arena to find others who were just as keen as me to make games.
And I bet next year is even better. -
Thanks @CasualTie5 for doing this!
I enjoyed seeing so many interesting games that have been created this year. In my opinion, there is definitely a lot of showcase gallery material among them..
And it's nice to be reminded that there are many talented, creative and awesome people in this community as well, so I look forward to see what 2021 will bring :-)
-
Wow dude. This is such a lovely and moving post. Thank you @CasualTie5 for those incredibly kind words... I won't lie you definitely got me a bit teary there! That is exactly how I feel about each project people make in the Gamejams. Just grateful that people want to spend their time making something with Fuze, and hang out with us!
Our community amazes me non-stop.

I wish we had a a calendar this year as well. @CasualTie5 did an amazing job last year…
