How did you implement the Theme and Special Object?
Anvils are the main weapon of Santa Claus. He uses it to drop them on the naughty (or nice) cars, launching them to oblivion. This was inspired by anvils killing players in Minecraft by dropping it on them.

You and I were on the same wavelength! My entry is a bit similar but not as destructive

I like the idea of this game! It's fun and pretty simple, nice

Love it! I smashed as many red cars as I could! :P I figured out that the middle of the screen is the aim indication, so adding an aim indicator would help towards where the anvil drops. Other than that, really good job! :D

Nice game and nice graphics! I just hope that the anvils can be dropped straight down and with more precision, that will make the game a lot easier and more enjoyable.

I had it so it would drop straight down at first but realized it was harder to see the destruction and the cars wouldn't get launched to oblivion unless hit at an angle. Thanks for the feedback, I realized the aiming is quite hard at first.

Pretty awesome animation, I wish there was like a cursor or a tracer for the anvil to have an idea where you are dropping it but otherwise pretty fun game. This is would be a great mobile game in my opinion. 4/5, there is still some work to be done but in general very nicely done!

Fun when you get a hold of it. The controls are a bit tough to master though

Honestly one of the better games out there in this series, whilst not fully handmade, it really shows potential of the creator and his brilliance, if I were a game developing company I would definitely consider hiring him. 5/5 rating no exceptions!

Game ran great for me.  Aiming was a little hard for me but I managed like 900 score with only 18% accuracy, :-P   City looked real good by the way.  Santa's sleigh reminded me of my grandmother's old living room chair.

Thanks for playing! Aiming is difficult to get the hang of at first but gets easier the more you play. Also yea was getting burnt out so I didn't put any effort into the sleigh lol.
