Game Description
Snag presents while Santa drops them but don't get caught!

How does your game tie into the theme?
You have to stop walking or "freeze" and wait for him to pass you so he doesn't hear you and put you back in bed.

That was a nice, cute experience. I would've expected Santa to move around more to get to the presents, but just a nitpick.

Cute game!  It took a few plays to get the hang of avoiding Santa, he moves so randomly and I frequently felt trapped in a corner.  I'd also suggest not restarting the music each time (make an auto load with the music), it was kinda jarring getting caught,  I also didn't see any counter of how many presents I collected.

Lastly, post jam you are free to update the page contents, the only thing you *can't* do is upload game files, everything else is allowed.  One jam I forgot to mark the html build as playable in browser but since I had already uploaded it before the deadline, I didn't need any permission to mark it correctly.  I literally never have an image or screenshots ready so always do that after the deadline, as well as update the page throughout the jam with instructions/bugs to avoid.

Oh thank you for the information I didn't realise that was allowed. I appreciate the comment and that you played my game!

Nice small game. 

First I didnt undestand that the santa walks differently when you walk or stay still. After I understood that i understood how the game follows the theme freeze. Needs some polish to be better game. Maybe menus and a little story for santa coming and kids trying to get past santa for presents. Then different levels that you when you get enough presents. 

Nice job.

I was a little hesitant to play this game since there were no graphics/screenshots on the itch page. It was a bit challenging avoiding Santa at times, and I wish there was some sort of counter so I could see how many presents I had collected. I can see this being really cute with Santa eventually visiting other houses with higher difficulties as you go long.

Ya that makes sense getting it uploaded was kind of a rush job so adding a cover image didn't happen in time I apologize. Thanks for the compliment on the art! The point counter is the present counter so how many points you have is how many presents you collected. Thanks a ton for playing my game even though it looks janky and thanks for the critique I appreciate it! As for the other levels I agree and I plan on adding more when the jam is over but I didn't have time(but hey the rush is half the fun of a game jam). Happy holidays and happy game jam!
