Great yet simple retro-styled game, managed to get to level 8, but it was already too hard for me. Nevertheless, well done!

I love the retro arcade direction you took, very fitting for such a comedic premise. I only got to level 11(skill issue). I also am pretty sure that chimney colliders are offset to the right a little bit, but it only adds to the fun. gg

Thanks for giving it a go and the comment! I will take a look at those collisions post jam.

score: 680 lvl 11!

This is a fun game! I love the backstory of the elves taking charge while also cleaning shop by delivering anvils as presents, two penguins with one snowball lol.

One suggestion would be to make sure the chimney colliders are accurate because they seemed to be inconsistent as I was zoom’n across the screen

Yeah I'd probably have to get those collision detections a little more dialed in at those high speeds.  I thought about implementing some kind of angular release of the anvil but it seemed like it would be a bit too hard with it so I...Well, I dropped it.   Thanks for playing!
