How did you implement the Theme and Special Object?
The anvil is one of the main mechanics of the game. The character in my game drops gifts or anvils.

Really nice concept and well performed. For some reason I had a hard time "hitting" the second "target" but that's part of the game - just have to adapt to it. Good work!

Cool concept, love the idea of "good"-grinches. Although the parralax effect was bugging a bit

Developer

That is the closest I got to making the parallax effect work XD

For a guy with slow reflexes like me, I had a hard time getting a good score, because I had trouble switching between presents and anvils to give the proper gifts to the people below. Other than that, I like the game's concept. 

Developer

Thank you for playing my game!! I'm also not that good at it, even though I made the thing XD my highscore is 80.

This is cool! I was hooked from the start! I was confused by the meter though. It seemed like no matter how well I was doing I never really "won." Still fun though!

Developer

It is the life bar jeje. Maybe I should have used another thing like hearts or candy cones XD

I understood that, I guess you lose points when you miss a child, but maybe you can have an incentive when you get a child their present?

Developer

The incentive was supposed to be the score increase. Given that it is an infinite game, so there is no way to actually "win". I had planned implementing a list that you had to complete, but I didn't know how to add that in the jam period.

I love how you implemented the theme!!

Developer

Thank you!! I really couldn't think of any other way to implement the special object to the theme.
