Are you a fan of Matt and Cam? Do you want to own their Lenticular GIFs for yourself? Well, then impress them with your artistic skills!

These two gentlemen are very dapper bus drivers, but when they’re not successfully stopping at bus stops they spend their time streaming on Twitch! They’ve played a lot of games and enjoyed the time with all their viewers. So here’s the deal: for the rest of Matt and Cam’s shift, until 10am, get your creative juices flowing and draw a mashup of a game that Cam has played and a game that Matt has played on their respective streams. Submit your work to [email protected].

Games that Cam has streamed:

  • XCom
  • Civilization 5
  • Alien: Isolation
  • Thief: The Dark Project
  • Master of Orion 2
  • Civilization: Beyond Earth
  • Dark Souls
  • Alpha Centauri

Games that Matt has streamed:

  • Destiny
  • World of Warcraft
  • DOTA 2
  • Sunset Overdrive
  • Watch Dogs
  • Alien: Isolation
  • Assassin’s Creed 4
  • COD Ghosts
  • Child of Light
  • Bro Force

Get to drawing! Cam and Matt will each pick their favourite and that winner will receive the respective GIF, so you have two chances to potentially win!

For the next 44 minutes, if you donate a multiple of $4.44 you will be entered to win a prize that everyone, parent or no, can be proud of: the Best Dad Ever mug. It’s the very same mug that was presented to Troy Baker (Joel – The Last of Us, Booker Dewitt – Bioshock: Infinite ) by Ashley Johnson (Ellie – The Last of Us) at MomoCon. It is also signed by Courtnee Draper (Elizabeth – Bioshock: Infinite)!! You can’t really get a better Dad moment than that. Every multiple of $4.44 is an entry, so go nuts!
