Scuffle of the Shapes - Challenge 1 - Four Off a Thousand
[After falling through the door-space for what feels like half an hour, you finally land, body crashing whatever-body-part-first onto a hard floor.]
[You get up, and look around. You seem to be in an arena-like place, a bit reminiscent of the CotC finale’s arena. A single Null is standing in the middle of the arena.]
“Welcome, competitors.”
[They sound… about what one would imagine one of these to sound like. Despite their serious tone they still sound a bit cute.]
“Today, your first challenge of the Scuffle of the Shapes will commence. I hope you’ve all prepared.”
“The first challenge will be a test of endurance and strength. Your goal is to defeat as much of myself as you can.”
[The Null looks to the sides. You follow their gaze and see some more of them appear.]
“We will be changing our way of fighting depending on your fighting style, so it comes down to either continuously attacking you full-force, or a test of endurance with multiple one-on-one battles in a row.”
[More Nulls start to appear.]
“And if you think you can defeat all of us easily, then think again. There are exactly 996 of me, so it will be an upward battle for you, even if you may have powerful weaponry and we don’t. We’ll always have the number's advantage”
[Two large screens above the arena light up. One displays a timer that will later serve as a stopwatch. The second shows a counter of the amount of Nulls defeated.]
“Bonus points will be given out based on either how long you hold out, or if you end up defeating everyone, by how quickly you defeat all of us.”
“Now, I suggest prepping yourself, as the 5-minute timer will start when I say ‘go’.”
[As soon as he says “go”, the timer starts, the milliseconds rapidly clicking down.]
“wait crud i-”
“George, you ruined it!” [A Null in the crowd shouts.]
“Hey, I didn’t mean-!” [The main Null, George, shouts back.]
“Shut up George!” [Another Null says. The crowd quickly devolves into banter over the early timer.]
[George quickly turns back to the competitors.]
“Okay just… prepare! You prepare! Your timer starts now!”
[You start preparing yourself as the Nulls start arguing. You have a feeling by the time the timer ends, they will immediately turn their attention and violence to you, so you must prepare yourself.]
[Meanwhile, another Null shouts.]
“George, you forgot the deadline, flowerhead! It’s in 9 weeks!”
“I GET IT! SHUT UP!”
[…You get the feeling this will either be an easy or tedious battle.]

“Hey~~ it’s us! Incodeadhirsecrynt~”
“AND WE’R3 H3R3 T0 G1V3 Y0UR HIN7S F0R F1ND1NG 7H3 51GNA7UR3 5ONG.”

“Soooo, hmmmmm… The amount of them. Huuuuhh?”
“They are indeed quite numerous, but why exactly nine hundred and ninety six?”
“intel tells us that might be a hint to the song but it also tells me it’s much more than that lmao”
“Anyways, that’s all we can deliver. Goodluck, and try not to die.”

Thank you to all who participated! Be sure to check out their blogs as well!
On a whim, they got some Cyan bastard to do it, and they were pretty happy to oblige.
Don't worry, the little spider won't be hurt at all; their soft fur is more than enough to withstand any damage.
The eye doesn't have any physical form, so it'll hit her eventually...
This year, im making my jsab characters into tarot cards :D
There's only 10 of them due to time and my tablet broke down .-.
Enjoy :D

Here it is: the front cover of Beyond Shapes & Beats in all its glory!
With each character drawn by a unique artist alongside their canon game counterpart, it brings us back to our roots in the original Just Shapes & Beats game, and shows how far we've come and will continue to grow with our creativity as a community.
