Hii, it was funny, the art and the dialogues gave me Hotline Miami vibes haha, overall great game

Really enjoyed this one, love the humour, One mild nitpick I had was I wish the camera was centered ahead of Santa so you can see more of what's in front of you. But overall I was won over by the charm on this one

Developer

Thanks for the feed back! I remember having talked about the camera at one point, but there must have been something that made us hold off on changing it? Either that or we forgot completely! Regardless totally agree it's hard to see ahead of you when you're moving so fast.

Glad you enjoyed!

I wasn't very good at the game, but the dialogue alone was SO much fun! 10/10 you should be proud of what you have created.

Developer

Super Proud =) And now super motivated!

The Grappling was my favourite part. Moving fast and shooting those elves felt great. Overall, great game feel and it's an awesome game.

Developer

Glad you enjoyed!

Very cute game! I enjoyed the story very much even tho it was hard to read while also trying not to fall behind, maybe the time should freeze there or something. But all in all it feels very christmasy with a fun spin.

Glad you liked it!!!

It's fun to play and the art are stunning!
It's a surprising idea for Christmas though 🙃

Developer

Glad you liked it! 
In fairness to us die hard is also a surprising idea for Christmas ;D

Submitted(+2)

I really liked the game, the pixel art is nice and I loved the Hotline Miami style.

You can tell there's work behind it.

Merry Christmas! 🎄 <3

Thanks for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed it! Merry Christmas

I love the story and this game so much. I do see some areas for improvement though. if you play for long enough the background music stops playing, and at the start of the game, I had to replay the game to be able to read the dialog. Other than those things this was a really solid game! 

Developer

Hey chicken! Yeah I think the dialog would benefit from being a click to proceed rather than timer based. That's odd about the music, as the only time it's told to stop is at the end before you transition to the next scene.

Thanks for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

I cryed...

Okay this game is f***ing insane. The dialogue is genius, I was literally hooked on the interactions. The GAMEPLAY was incredible. Being able to sling yourself side to side to avoid the elfs or shoot them with "year old cookies (genius btw)" was incredibly fun. It wasn't too long either, and I'm so blown away that there was an ending cutscene.

Super good job!!! I would be thrilled to see this game get #1. You guys have game developer brains!

Developer

ദ്ദി ꒦ິ꒳꒦ິ )✧  Thanks! You hit my heart with this one. Glad you enjoyed it! 

Submitted(+2)

I liked the game! It became a bit repetitive though.

If you do choose to update or continue working on this, different elf types could be fun!

All and all, this is an extremely unique idea, and it was a lot of fun! I liked the dialogue!

Developer(+1)

Hey Bloody thanks for the feedback!

Glad you enjoyed it!

This game is super hilarious and fun! Great Job!

Developer

Thanks! glad you enjoyed it!

Well I went through the whole game without knowing you can grapple. Whatever, it was great nonetheless. 

Really love the dialogue. Also the elf guy looks like gollum with a santa hat on and that's just awesome.

Developer

Glad you liked it =)

who would have known that hotline miami aesthetic would gop so well with xmas

Developer

I didn't =)

This is the wildest game I've seen so far, and I love it!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed the game!

Nice game, grappling is glitchy in a good way!

Developer

Glitchy in a good way is my favorite sub-genre!

Submitted(+2)

I tried to do a killless run but it was really hard x) Nice game, had a lot of fun and really liked the visuals!

Developer(+1)

Ooof yeah no stick it to the little guy. Murder away =) Glad you liked it!

Submitted(+2)

very well done. I did feel like there's no way to lose and no real punishment for losing your momentum but regardless the concept is super fun and well executed.

Developer

Santa never loses  (⌐▨_▨)

Glad you enjoyed!
