So there's a pair of pants, and Santa, and some gradients. Huh?

pressing shift didn't do anything, which is a pity, because I quite like the style...
Wow, this game really is weird. In the 'grey bar' minigame clicking anywhere seemed to have the same effect on my score. I discovered at least CNN and the lamp, but I can't tell if there's more...?
You just made my day!
*SPOILERS* As best I can tell, the minigames are based on optical illusions, and it doesn't matter what you do; none of lights are going out, it only looks that way; and despite appearances, the line is a solid color.
Which is cute, don't get me wrong, but since player input is almost entirely irrelevant, there's not much game here.
Well, you win for fun factor :)
To base every game on optical illusions is nifty. Too bad that there are only two games (is the TV a game?). Would have loved to see more games.
Good marks for graphics, audio and humour. But unfortunately this fails in the Fun category as there isn't much to do or any sort of goal.
Nice idea to use optical illusions as gameplay, I couldn't get any of them to work though (unless I was doing something wrong).
I didn't really get the point of the game. It looks like the gradient mini-game you play with Santa just gives you points each time you click, with no penalty for clicking in the wrong place. Possibly a bug?
