I really liked the art style of the snowmen and the cutscene with the snowman holding the gun made me laugh, great job

This is a really well done short shooter, you've have nailed the feeling quite well. The shotgun feels situational, but was useful in the room that opens up with two yellow snowmen, that I noticed deal more damage. The aesthetic works really well. Cutscenes and in-game art feel suitably Christmasy. Santa is always prepared made me chuckle. Music and sfx fit the genre well. Nice addition of adding the yog music video snowman as a boss. Very solid submission to the game jam!
Edit: Looking at the screenshot and going back to the game, I appreciate the addition of a subtle attack animation where the snowmen close the "eye" opposite the side they're holding the gun as if they're aiming. That's good visual info for the player to recognize when the player is within their attack range.
The camera controls are a bit weird but great and enjoyable game plus it looks really polished!
Short, but I liked it. You had an Idea and you stuck to it.
Oh man the doom remake i never new i needed... This is amazing!!!

Really captured the vibe of those good old FPS games! Like the christmas theme too, fun stuff
Getting proper classic Wolfenstein vibes here. Well done on a solid game :D nice art too!
It was okay, I definitely felt the controls were a bit wonky, even when adjusting the settings and I wish there was more cutscenes and such to give it context. Otherwise, it's cute, although I felt more could have been done to make it feel more unique since the premise is really cool. Maybe more of a story too.
I very much enjoyed that! Those sound effects were meaty and felt very good
