I really dont know the story behind this cursed santa but I love him xD
Anyways the game is really fun and easy to play, maybe it would be nice to just get a spacebar/mouseclick at the beginning so the player knows how to control the Santa. But this is a funny cute little game that works with the topic momentum very well c: 
Maybe next time try to make it playable in the browser so it gets more attention c:

(EDIT: realized this was made in Unreal, and I have so much respect. I tried it and could not figure out C++ for the life of me. Props.)
Very creative and fun game, with a few issues:
a. When landing on a cylinder, clicks stop registering until you hit flat ground.
b. The bounce feels a bit slow at first (not a huge deal)
c. The Santa model will haunt me in my nightmares (not an issue, but...)

Love the concept, though it could stand a little more polish.
