- Thats one cute santa
- Cute elves
Could be improved
- I think the sound gave up half way
- It is hard to tell why sometimes santa stopped taking presents, but going back to the sleigh fixed it
- I have not found a need to sacrifice the elves by level 3
That being said - I really enjoy the way the graphics are presented. The way the player character moves is great, the bag jumping around is a nice touch, and the derpy-looking reindeer which float up and down are delightful.
The gameplay was alright, but Santa seemed to teleport to the sleigh.
It would have been nice to know when to return presents to the sleigh and it was a little too easy (I didn't have to sacrifice any elves).
Loved the sound and art but did not like the game play that much.
The graphics and controls are really nice, but i found the music special. Really well done.
I think the only thing that could be improved was a message when Santa is full, like a little text balloon "IM FULL!". It would improve gameplay a bit.
Really nice work on this entry!
