I got this error when trying to run it on a mac: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2963538/RemblegError.txt

A bit of a simple game, quite short, but not all that bad.

- I really liked how you could pocket your bow to run faster. Nice touch!
- I expected the arrows to curve somehow. I understand how they don't, but it would've been nice.
- It was quite easy, I just kept sticking santa with arrows and he died before I did.
- Some other reaction, except for the bar getting less, would've been nice when hitting or being hit.

Consider making it longer and more varied, perhaps with more weapons.

Hmm, like Jezzamon, I couldn't get it to run on OS X, either ... I couldn't find a stack trace, but it's probably the same problem.

It was a nice game. I wasn't particularly fond of how the bow worked, but it was manageable. Fairly easy to beat as well -- maybe add some sort of challenge other than the elfkilling/santakilling?

I'm sorry, I didn't tested game at MAC

Maybe you can compile it to Java 6

I really liked the putting the box away to move faster.

Good idea about the bow slowing you down while aiming ;) fun little game.

Afraid I couldn't run. I have java installed.

Nice game! Good sounds and music. Gameplay could be improved a little. Some feedback when an enemy hits you would have been nice. Also, I think a command to take out the bow is not necessary, the bow should be activated by default. I loved the final boss :)
