Graphics are very good, i would have likel to experience the time mode you had planned. All in all though, well done!
The controls are super good, gameplay is fun and addictive and the music, sfx and art fit perfectly. Great Job!
Thanks for playing Kebaboo! Glad you enjoyed it.
Pretty fun and easy to play. The controls work nice for a cozy, chill game to relax.
Awesome Work!
Thanks Unshackled, glad you enjoyed it!
nice funny game theme :D but the only problem was if i contunie to hold the gift while giving to kids, gift doesnt disappear. I like the main menu a lot!
Thanks for playing and the bug report!
The game's art is charming, and the atmosphere is cozy, but the gameplay itself is not particularly engaging. Overall, it's a solid entry.
Good luck with your next projects.
Thanks for playing GoodWalter! The timed mode was quite a bit more engaging, it was just not ready by the time the jam ended.
Really funny idea and I really like the pixel art! Fits the winter vibes really well
Thanks Shadowsora, glad you enjoyed it!
great idea! I loved the game!
I really love the art style, it looks fantastic.
Thanks Brettjsantema!
I love the art style and the idea! I'm not sure if its possible to lose in the game. I just getting scores and a lot of kicks.
It's not possible to lose... yet. The time attack version had to be shelved for, well, time. I should get it added in after the jam (it was 98% done).
Cool!
Icing effect really nice and good simple and effective design!
Thanks StylerFunk for playing!!!
nice artwork and i like that there is a little tutorial area :)
Thanks Devtev, as is always the case with game jams, I was hoping to flesh out the tutorial level just a little bit more, but hopefully it got the job done. Thanks so much for playing and rating!!!
Great game! I probably shouldn't say this but the kids getting kicked by bad Santa was hilarious to me. I also really liked the presentation. The art is super cute and well-drawn. I encountered a couple of minor bugs though that I'll mention since you'll be updating the game: On one occasion a gift got grabbed that was very far from me and disallowed me from grabbing the gifts in front of me. Also, the gift counter keeps going up as long as I have the mouse button held down when I'm next to a kid receiving a gift.
Thank you so much for pointing out those bugs! I hadn't seen the counter one. The other one... yeah... that may have swallowed up a few hours already and been why we didn't get to see the timed mode in time.
Awesome game! The vibe was really cool and I'm sure it will be even better once timed mode is added. I did experience a minor bug where it wouldn't let me pick up any presents but it corrected itself after some fiddling. Great job overall though!
Thanks Mindbottle! Picking up and moving the presents proved to be more complicated than I thought it would be. With proper planning and clean code it would have been fine, but who has time for that during a game jam? Thanks for the bug report and for playing my game!
possibly the best game of the jam
Thanks for playing Cabo Dev!!!
Hey great game! I did find a bug where if you keep holding a present you could give the same present to multiple people without it being used up.
Thanks for the bug report! I am planning on updating this after the jam, so I "should" get it fixed.
Love the game, love the wibe, love the behindhole santa!
Glad you liked it, thanks for playing!
Really really fun! I agree that the movement felt a little sluggish, but the ability to queue presents on the ground made up for it. Watching all the children (and myself) get kicked into orbit by Santa was hilarious, too. Great job. :)
Glad you found it funny! I almost made them stick into the ground, but it was so funny watching them slide away I kept it.
Really enjoyed the game! While the movement speed was a bit slow, I liked the extra element of being able to lay the presents in front of the pathed to be picked up, added an extra layer of strategy!
Glad you figured that out! I wasn't sure if people would pick up on that without giving an example. Thanks for playing!
