I really enjoyed the interpretation of the theme! However, I echo what a lot of others have said as there are a lot of bugs. I personally ran into the timer bug and somehow latched onto the invisible wall on the far right side of the stage.
I also wish that the layout could better reinforce the goals of the game as I found myself pretty confused about what I was supposed to do in my first few runs. Great job on completing your game though!

Hey :) We didn't have much time with this as everyone else because my computer was completly busted for 2 days with no way of me being able to login and @Tooble helped me fix it, we are going to be doing a post jam patch to iron out the bugs :)
The layout of the game is styled to be a metroidvania tied into a platformer also. We decided on this because we wanted their to be a panic of not knowing where to go to find the gifts and we believe that this metroidvania/platformer best suits to instill panic and also fuel exploration to find the gifts by taking different paths to find different gifts, couldn't fully explore this though due to said tech issues before unfortunately :(
Really happy you like it though and thanks for playing! :)
