Everything works fine! Obviously, it could use some animations, etc, but it's a great start! I like the idea of having to catch the falling objects while platforming through the level.
Thank you for playing, indeed the game could do with some pollish.
i like the art, although, the background needs a little mork work to do :)
I agree, it was a last minute job.
Good and original idea! :)
Thank you
Great job with this! Your use of the limitation is wonderful! Removing platforms as mentioned below could improve the movement. The sounds clipped a few times, which means they were probably all too loud going into the game. I also would've liked sounds for jumping and landing. Well done!
Thank you, i'll take your suggestions into consideration.
This made me grin. :) The music and laughter are good, and the esthetic is very Christmas while also invoking the 8-bit era.
The Grinch's controls felt just a little bit odd. You get used to it, but his jump is very "floaty." Also, I expected to be able to interfere with Santa a bit more directly when I climbed up to the very top platform. :)
Thank you.
Initially you could interfere with Santa but that made the game a face roll so I took it out.
Cool idea! I like the "ho ho ho" sound effect, and the happy "losing" message. Great game!
Our game has a kind of similar take on the limitation!
Thank you, great minds think alike :3
The Grinch should be faster.
hmmm, wouldn't that make the Grinch too easy?
I’m not sure if faster or maybe make less platforms to let the grinch move easier. I gues that it’s hard to balance this one. I missed more sound feedback when jumping or landing, those details improve the game a lot.
I like the sounds of Santa, makes me happy.
Well... Fits the theme, I actually fail all the time... But fail for good, huh :D
Yes, it takes a while to master it.
Ha ha, made me laugh out loud. I really failed miserably - Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas
