Stardew Valley is the very sweet genre mashing game involving farming, falling in love, exploring a dungeon and more. It's now DRM free for Linux on GOG and we have a few keys to give away.
The keys were generously provided to me by GOG.com directly, so big thank you to GOG for doing this with us!
How do I win a key? (COMPETITION IS OVER NOW)
Draw me a pretty picture of you farming and post it in the comments, include it with the img bbcode so we can all see it. You can host images at imgur.
The 11 best, funniest or whatever will win a copy (I pick them). Competition ends Friday 5th August 8PM UTC.
Don't be shy, I can't draw to save my life so I will start this competition off:
I know what you're thinking, I must be related to Picasso right?
Keep a note: Go to https://www.gog.com/redeem to use the key.

You’ve inherited your grandfather’s old farm plot in Stardew Valley. Armed with hand-me-down tools and a few coins, you set out to begin your new life. Can you learn to live off the land and turn these overgrown fields into a thriving home? It won’t be easy. Ever since Joja Corporation came to town, the old ways of life have all but disappeared. The community center, once the town’s most vibrant hub of activity, now lies in shambles. But the valley seems full of opportunity. With a little dedication, you might just be the one to restore Stardew Valley to greatness!

I wonder if perhaps I've strayed from the original goal here, but it's too late now.

A few alternate tag-lines
"Welcome to the equinox"
"The crops have gone bad"
"The onslaught doesn't end 'till your coughing up mud"

I haven't drawn in years, but you got me to do it ;)
It was pretty fun to do and I found out building an igloo is hard.

Me do good. Except the link to the image doesn't appear to work. Used the bbcode tags... no joy...Ok, imgur has made this less obvious at some point, so here's a short guide:
When you mouse over an image you've just uploaded, at the top you'll see an url you can copy. Ignore this one, and instead hover over the downward-pointing chevron icon at the top right corner of the image. Now click "Get share links" in the hover menu that appears. Then click the Copy button next to the field titled "BBCode (Forums)" and paste it to your comment here as is. This way you get the image url wrapped in img tags correctly, so just hit preview or post and bask in the glory of your artistic achievement.
Hope this helps someone. I'm sure there are other, less complicated image hosting services available though.

I initiated this on a piece of paper, scanned it and completed with GIMP.

Phew! This took me hours, but at least I've learned how to paint in GIMP.

Use Krita, it's much better to paint as far as I'm concerned, very nice drawing btw

I don't draw much at all, which is why the penguins look a bit funky; copying from a reference image is much easier, if a little tedious. I just used GIMP because it was already installed, so maybe I'll check out Krita next time (if it doesn't require a tablet).
