Holiday cards: Happy Mawlidays from Twisted Pixel photo

The holidays and Twisted Pixel's upcoming Xbox LIVE Arcade game The Maw have something in common -- I get a warm, fuzzy feeling inside when I think of them. 

When this holiday card arrived in the mail featuring the purple, big-mouth Maw and his alien buddy Frank all dressed up for the holidays, we nearly died.

The Maw picked up an "audience choice" award at the 2008 Penny Arcade Expo, where the game was playable for anyone with hands, eyes, and ears. For more info on The Maw, check out our interview I did with Twisted Pixel's Josh Bear not too long ago.

Oh, and Happy Mawlidays!

The game doesn't tickle my fancy, but the alien's design from The Maw is just so damned awesome, in a cute way. Oh well.

I agree about the design. It really comes across in the game as well, I think.
