Merry Christmas!
We have created a special demo just for the Christmas holiday, to give the gaming community a chance to see what we're doing at Heaven's Blessings Tiny Zoo. You can download the Chariots Christmas demo for free from our website

www.visionsgame.com/HBTZ_Downloads.htm

The Chariots Christmas demo is a special Christmas theme race in an alegorical setting with many sweet sights to see. The full Chariots game still in development with our volunteer team is also a racing game and will be set loosely in ancient history with Roman, Greek and Egyptian themes. Chariots is a tiny excerpt from the much larger Christian MMORPG called Visions, also in development. We're creating Chariots as an experimental development cycle to further our progress on Visions and release a smaller game in the process as well. Please visit our website for further information.

Chariots is being created with Torque Game Engine Advanced using legacy terrain. We hope you enjoy the demo. And we hope you have a wonderful Christmas holiday. Discover Christmas!

Blessings to you,

Last night I decided that I have lost touch with the spirit of the holidays. So, I forced myself to connect emotionally with the suffering of people around the world. I paid $5 to watch The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause. It kind of backfired. I made me hate life and everyone in it.

But then... out of the darkness... New Line made good with Peter Jackson and the Hobbit movies are being made after all.

Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year!

This looks like a cool game. I'm downloading now.

Edit to add:
Cool game. I lost the ai right off the bat, then let him catch back up. I never did find the end. I found a house in one area, but no path leading off from there, so the way I thought was back to the beginning was probably the way I needed to go.
I tried to register on your forum, but haven't recieved the conformation email yet.

Thanks for playing Mike!

If you found the log cabin you were almost there. :) Only a couple more big curves after that. You can play as many times as you want of course. I hope the challenge is enough to be fun without being frustrating.

You should get the confirmation email for the forums immediately. If you haven't gotten it yet, check your bulk mailbox. If you still have problems, email me at tinyzoo@yahoo.com and I'll look into it further for you.

Merry Christmas!
