Ho Ho Holiday DLC is here!



'Tis better to give than receive... a virus. It's starting to snow in the City of Tomorrow and anit-virus drones are looking more like Frosty the snowman. Hydrators are spiting out Christmas cookies and you can even hear bells jingling in the air.

But what about TOM? Even viruses need some Yuletide joy... Help over-decorate TOM, make him look like the Holidays threw up all over him by finding holiday spirit hidden throughout the circuitry of Dr X's inventions. They'll be a new clue each day and the first to send an image of TOM completely decorated will get to decorate themselves with TOM (read: schwag)!

This is our holiday gift to everyone in the 'A Virus Named TOM' community! Thanks for making a great 2012! Available free on Steam (should auto-update... A Virus Named TOM: Winter Wonderland)

Decorate TOM, Win Schwag!

Well it's holiday time, and we're getting ready to launch our holiday DLC! The only problem is that TOM is still rockin his Movember mustache  in December...

We need your help. We want to replace all the avatar images of TOM with holiday ones, but can't decide how.

Below are our current four steam avatars (w/transparent BG's). Take them, and infect them with holiday cheer! Then send them back to us and we'll put them up for a vote. The top four will not only be our Steam avatars for the holidays, but the mad scientists that created them will get a holiday gift: their pick from any item of schwag on our cafe press store.

How to submit?
  • Tweet it out ending the tweet with @MisfitsAttic #HolidayVirus
  • Post it to our Facebook page
  • Email us at contest@MisfitsAttic.com (a url/link to the image makes life easier)

The Deadline is midnight (PT) Monday December 10th, so get decorating!
