There are no more doors to open for Advent.js 2024! But we do have one last thing to show off, which is our beautiful evolving homepage, made by co-organiser @vividfax.bsky.social, who led all the technical development and design for the calendar. Did you notice it changing across the month?

It’s Christmas Day! That means we’re not in the Advent.js office today, so we asked Terry Cavanagh (@terrycavanaghgames.com) to install a new screensaver for us. Maybe you can pop it on your TV or computer today too while you’re eating lunch or opening presents? adventjs.itch.io/adventjs-2024

I had a lot of fun making my door 😄 Thanks @vividfax.bsky.social @mtrc.bsky.social for bringing us artists together and making this beautiful calendar for us! I wanted to experiment with making some word soup that would accidentally conjure moments of bizarre beauty. I hope you like my attempt 😊

At Christmas time children all around the world ask Santa for gifts. But maybe Santa wants to talk about other things? Santa’s a complex individual with a lot of knowledge and expertise. Join Alistair Aitcheson (@agaitcheson.bsky.social) in asking Santa things today: adventjs.itch.io/adventjs-2024

There’s nothing quite like watching the snow gently settle outside in winter. Although this snow looks a little… different… somehow. I think Mads Johansen (@pyjamads.bsky.social) might have had something to do with this. Come behind today’s door to see: adventjs.itch.io/adventjs-2024

Very happy to be a part of Advent.js this year! This was my first attempt at making something in p5js and my first time making non-interactive generative art. It's a simple idea but I'm pleased with how it turned out. Thanks @vividfax.bsky.social for inviting me!

Today is my turn in this advent calendar of tiny digital toys, put together by @vividfax.bsky.social and @mtrc.bsky.social adventjs.itch.io/adventjs-2024 Open door 14 for some randomly generated traditions, or try eg 13 (cosy), 3 (a little game), 2 (tiny lovely story) (Desktop only, sorry!)
ENGLISH CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS

In Wickworth they get drunk every December and set fire to a Christmas tree by the claw machine in the old amusement arcade.

In Egging Wells they feast on effigies and brandy to summon back the sun.

In Walden they hide all the children's presents in the frozen meadows for them to search for on Christmas morning.
