Very fun game! I really love the art and music. And the story is very funny. 5/5
Really funny the idea of santa's not able to drive and the deer that carries him. Nice graphics!
I really love how the art style, the mechanics, and the premise all work together (everything leans into that ‘santa is sloppy drunk’ idea. This is really clever and I love the art pieces. I think this could be a bit more exciting if there were more to the present delivering mechanic, like maybe it flies in an arc or something. Either way, this is really impressive, great work.
Very fun controls, impressive how polished a game can be in such a short time!
Great game! The music is perfectly adapted and the visuals are very good. Very nice.
Thank you very much! We appreciate you playing!
Lots of fun! Great take on 2d ragdoll physics. Whipping Santa around was a blast. Great art, music, EVERYTHING!
thank you very much, fuzzmonkey!
Lovely art, fun game!! Also very funny backstory!!
love the little comic of santa and his deer casually getting drunk in the beginning! the art is so pretty.
Interesting and kinda weird art. I like it a lot! :D
Also nice gameplay.
I noticed just a little thing that if you grab the deer by the butt sometimes it doesnt work
really fun and twisted story. I really liked the art too. the way santa gets thrown around is really funny
The first scene made me laugh a lot. great idea and good implementation. it was difficult to control the deer and throw gifts at the same time
This is really nice. Brings me back to the flash games era.

Hahahah! That was ADORABLE, good music, good art, easy to pick up, very well done to you and your team :)
thank you very much, team Momomo! 😁
Great art and fun idea that santa was drinking with the reindeers! :)
I really loved the face of the reindeer when it realized it's christmas.
thank you! We love our derpy deer too! 😂
The Game is really polished and the art and the cutscenes were really nice. The Sound effects were incredible! One thing I would change is, that when you get to low, you take damage and get pushed upwards again. The game was easily cheesed by staying on the bottom platform. Still an amazing game though :)
Thank you so much for the review and suggestions! Our sound designer did an incredible job, she even had her husband voice Santa and if there was a real deer she would have gone to record the deer sound herself. Thanks for complimenting the art as well, it was fun drawing the reindeer's and santa's face.
The art in this game is such a treat. Santa seems a bit cursed (where is his face, oh god), but in a funny and memorable way. Spooky Santa didn't feel totally aligned with Santa in the main gameplay, but you get away with it by sandwiching the gameplay between spooky Santa opening and the tragic dead Santa/reindeer game over painting. Loved the way the opening sequence was done, and I found the gameplay entertaining and the controls natural to get the hang of. The only (maybe?) issue I experienced was that extra hearts often spawned over enemies, so I couldn't refill hearts much because I'd just take damage and lose them. For me, the game overall didn't feel super cozy, but it was absolutely wintery and fun, and I think it is a fantastic entry nonetheless. Great work!
Thank you! I agree that it didn't feel very cozy with the exception that there's a fire in the opening cutscene, fire is cozy. We decided that we wanted to make something fun and cozy but ended up going more toward the fun side.
Santa has a long lifespan that's why he hasn't shaved in a long long time. He's also quite drunk and overworked so I'm sorry for his behalf on his unhygienic cursed appearance.
Hahaha love the lore behind the art.
There's a timer!??! I died with 2-3 lives left. lmao
Overall art is nice. Music and Sounds are great. Gameplay is simple but challenging. 👍
Thanks for playing, Niighty!
Glad you checked out our game <3
Of course I will!! lmao xD
Such a fun xmas delivery adventure! My fav part has to be swining santa around with the reindeer! Also the intro art style is so dope!
My favourite part too! Thank you for playing!
I love this one! The multitasking gameplay is super fun and the art style is stellar (especially the opening cutscene). I could see this being a fully fledged paid game with more mechanics.
Thank you very much for playing! :3
