Code: Select all

Post your whatever description in this thread and !YOU! may be the winner. If you want to be in the Jury, PM me.
You may cut any part of the ASCII "art" (damn, that rhymes), but remember to be creative.

Contest countdown

I remove my right to hand out the $5 if the winner can't cash it in. (I'm not sending it through snailmail, but if the winner pleases he could have the equivalent-ish amount in swedish money)

And remember, you may change your answer at any time before deadline.

Good luck everybody!

From left to right it's the most detailed ascii panoramic of a mountain side village on one line ;)

Starts off with part of a buildig, when then opens into a mountain view (lots of peaks). Then you see more of the village buildings some overlaying others; and lastly, the start of a forest.

so to sum up:

part of building

hm either you're working on art for a rougelike, or else its a unicorn. I really just want an ascii unicorn on one line so I can put it on facebook. And I'm so happy I'm in the title xD granted I did just get paid, I guess some xbla points would be okay
