This game was actually quite fun! It's quite long and is well made. Nice job!

Damn, I had a quarter of the boss left until Christmas! Damn fun game, well done.

Ah, I was so close to reaching Christmas! I lost on the twelfth day.
I think there were more towers to unlock but I kept getting lump of coal... So I only got four towers to choose from.

A cool feature to add would be upgrading either the towers or the weapons or both...

But overall, I liked it!

I love the art and it was a lot of fun until day 5 because on day 5 I got a furnace for the 3d time...

Developer

lmao sorry about that, I used a pretty simple RNG system where I just choose a random gift without accounting for previous ones and was planning to add a mechanic where getting repeats upgraded your turrets but didn't get to it so you might get like 4 days of the same gift in a row if you're really unlucky.

Submitted

I'll try again, hopefully, I'll get better RNG.

Update: I got the worm on day one, then got the light lamp thingy twice in a row and got a snowman on day 3 and then died on day 4

It's a nice Christmas-themed tower defence which is also pretty fun. But a couple of issues I found is that the magic wand bolts should be somewhat faster, and also that the player can't actively demolish towers or upgrade the damage or freeze resistance etc of their towers, which reduces player involvement somewhat. A cool game with good pixel art!

Its pretty rng based wich I like since it gives a reason to replay it. I did something similar in mine as well. Very fun game!

I always enjoy a little tower defense game! Was really fun to play around! Good job!

Merry Christmas!

Fav one so far. Based comedy. Icey star boss kept spawning first and getting to my tree like it's just eating a candy tho(I hate it). Maybe was bc I couldn't shoot, idk if it is a bug or I'm just unlucky.

Skill issue? Jk, the game definitely has a big RNG aspect and getting the snowflake (icey star??) boss on your first days is pretty difficult.

Well I only survived 8 Days but it was still a very fun game. I liked the building mechanics and the enemies. The lightning and the animations (the weapons, not the hedgehog) were quite nice. I like the ambience and vibe that the game has but I would have loved a ambient/atmospheric song in the background to make it less boring. The present mechanic was also kinda meh. I got 2 weapons, some enemies and the rest coal. But overall this game is quite nice.

(Also if a video about this game will come out, I would totally watch it)

Thanks, I am planning to make a devlog sooner or later.

I really enjoyed this game, especially the last day, just pure CHAOS :d

But why is the first weapon almost the strongest one and why are the balista and furnice the only ones reliable weapons. Hand weapon also helped a little but all other weapons just useless.

Also I think that it should be sped up a little bit. After 5th day it got kinda tedious

Also found a glitch, when picking present you can place towers without a cost.

But overall very fun game

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I did notice the tediousness of the game and uselessness of some weapons too (although basically every weapon has a certain very specific use) and thanks for pointing out the glitch. If I work on an update I will definitely take all of this into account.

Excellent Tower Defense with nice visuals
