When a medical animation and app agency wants to send out a holiday card, what's better than an 8-bit adventure you can play?
In addition to creating science-art and blogging here on Symbiartic, I work at INVIVO Communications. I get to share the medical and scientific apps, animations and communication projects created by the talented and fast-growing team. In the spirit of the holidays I thought it would be fun to once again share INVIVO's free browser-based holiday game with our readers here.
Enjoy Winter Sprinter! See if you can endlessly run from the sun: is it climate change or seasonal variation freaking out Frosty?

It’s Time to Stand Up for Science
If you enjoyed this article, I’d like to ask for your support. Scientific American has served as an advocate for science and industry for 180 years, and right now may be the most critical moment in that two-century history.
I’ve been a Scientific American subscriber since I was 12 years old, and it helped shape the way I look at the world. SciAm always educates and delights me, and inspires a sense of awe for our vast, beautiful universe. I hope it does that for you, too.
If you subscribe to Scientific American, you help ensure that our coverage is centered on meaningful research and discovery; that we have the resources to report on the decisions that threaten labs across the U.S.; and that we support both budding and working scientists at a time when the value of science itself too often goes unrecognized.
In return, you get essential news, captivating podcasts, brilliant infographics, can't-miss newsletters, must-watch videos, challenging games, and the science world's best writing and reporting. You can even gift someone a subscription.
There has never been a more important time for us to stand up and show why science matters. I hope you’ll support us in that mission.
