Okay quick feedback and some  questions: Overall I love the atmosphere and the controls are also nice! As far as I can tell, the theme is only incorporated in the description of the game that the holiday spirit is now a nightmare. That's kinda vague for my taste, but okay. The music adds a lot to the game, but it only started playing after my first death (I DIED ON PURPOSE TO TEST IT, OKAY!! :P).

Now my question regarding gameplay: Is there any way to heal my character?? I watched the video on your page, but there's a cut after the first phase of the boss and the character is suddenly full health again - which of course I was too, because I didn't take any damage. But hypothetically speaking, IF I had taken  damage, how would I heal between the phases? :D

Thanks for the feedback! Also it was out first game-jam so some stuff was here and there, will try to improve in future for sure. 

Now coming to your question:

> Is there any way to heal my character??

No, as of now. We were planning to add health pickups but the time ran out.

Haha okay, I see :) Great game for your first jam as a team! I always work as solo dev until now and I think working as a team is a whole different challenge. So nice work and keep it up!
