How did you implement the Theme and Special Object?
We implemented the theme of Christmas by setting the Game in the village of Northpole as well as having Santa Claus as one of our main characters. We used Christmas as the context for our storyline and
the Anvil as set objective, the storyline is based around in our game for the player.

really nice visuals and cool boss

Oh, it's a beat-em-up! And it's a fun one despite being short. Boss was kinda tricky, but I beat it by making it face one way, then use a couple of attacks before moving out of the way.

Very nice game,  really enjoyed playing it, I like animations a lot
Controlls are a bit weird
Music does not stop when you die (two songs are played at the same time)
There is one black pixel in the player sprite
You can move to one side of enemies and spam attack

Truly one of the best games at the jam! Excellent visuals, interesting gameplay (reminiscent of old games about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).

Wow! This is a very high quality game! Bear lacks mobility, but overall a very powerful game for Jem. It should be much higher in the rankings.

Well done!

I think you should make a web version of the game. It's not too hard to do on Unity. People are not very keen on downloading games.

your game is cool! so fun ;D i like beat em ups

THAT PINK BEAR IS A SAVAGE. Anyway, this was a fun beat em up. I understand the time constraint but adding simple effects like more THUNKING sfxs and screen shakes could really spice things up for these kinds of games.

Thanks for your suggestion! We will remember for next time!

Cool art style and gameplay. Although I did notice some black dots in some of the animations. Don't know if that was intended or not, other than that it was great!

Developer

Thank you so much for your review! We will look into the animation issues!
