Its a nice platformer. I wasn't able to complete the second stage because the jumps were quite difficult. Would be good to get some health pickups, or more checkpoints.
For the visuals, it is ok, but I see that everything has a different style - Santa is pixel art with black outline, elves are more detailed pixel art with no outline, background is highres vector art etc.
But it is certainly fun and festive!
Bloody Lovely! Loved the jumping, the enemies.. I love how you replicated Mario. Well Done!
Absolutely enjoyed the jumping animation in your game - so much fun! 🌟 Some of those jumps were pretty challenging, kept me on my toes. And those gnome attacks? Totally caught me off guard! 😲 Really fun experience overall. Great work! 🎮
This platformer gave me HEAVY celeste vibes. The Santa sprite is really cool and the animations look really clean and polished! I really love the sound when you stomp on an enemy lol. I really like how the platformer looks, the pixel art style really suits it!
I really like the sprite of santa. A couple of little things I noticed. Santas sprite animation doesn't seem to match his speed, his animation needs to be faster. Also if you hit the jump button while already in the air it played the jump sound a second time but doesn't jump. The other thing I liked was the stretch effect applied when he jumped.
