Honestly great entry! the lock to candy canes speed ups, the stacked on top santas. I thought the gingerbread man was bleeding the first time he hit the candy cane and I was like wait a minute... 

Steller job nailed the momentum and love the humor.

LMAO I just about lost it when I opened up the game and it was playing Mario Kart music, but you mentioned it in the credits. xD Hella fun game! I really wanna bring attention to how good it feels to land on a grind rail (candycane). The way it speeds up is hella satisfying, like Sonic Adventure or something haha. I did think sometimes it was lame how I'd fly into the sky after doing a dope shred on the rails and then land right on a bunch of santas without being able to see them or react ROFL. Very fun regardless, thanks for the entry!
