CANADA: the game
(AKA the 2010 winter lolympics)

------

Contrary to popular belief, Canada is not all maple hockey pucks and snowflake-flavoured skittles - we have our problems. A slow, inefficient health care, a strong history of pissing off natives, and just a few months ago, a coalition government determined to tear off Stephen Harper's balls. At least we can salvage some of our national pride back when the American economy totally stagflates.

But there is something Canadians can take pride in now, and that is the 2010 Winter Olympics, conveniently planned during a global economic crisis, yippee. But hey, we're a hell lot less controversial than Beijing. Here's the official video for the 2010 Winter Olympics' mascots:

Does anyone else find Quatchi disturbing? I mean... he takes a picture of some kids and the next moment all's left is an abandoned net, a broken hockey stick, and a VERY. HAPPY. QUATCHI. I mean what the hell?! The mascot looks enough like Pedobear as it is, dammit!...

Yes, I AM in the process of making :the game 2: (working title), and I'd thought I'd do an update on it.
Currently, I'm in the midst of compiling level ideas and drawing characters for :the game 2: - maybe I'll set up a dev blog and upload pics from time to time. Here's one pic.

Below are the mascots drawn :the game: style, who will be featured in CANADA: the game. Oh yes, there will be blood. Download a textless version for a desktop background! NOW!!!!11!1!!!
