Ho! Ho! Ho! Now I know that elves' lives are not so easy!I really enjoyed being able to see the skeleton of other players with the score and the year they died.

bobparis75 2020-10-05 17:55

I love the graphic style and the concept of the game!!! I find the concept innovative and fun. GG to you

unicornfrog 2020-10-05 18:51

pedrohph e BobParis75...my favorite elfs :D tks for comments.

supergamersgames 2020-10-05 19:24

Hmm, I like how it shows the other players, but I kinda wish that meant there was more multiplayer compatibility. I also don't see the point of the swearing in this, lol.

dreamerofdays 2020-10-05 19:28

Realy nice game, the looks and feel realy got me trying agian and again and again. I laughed every time i died. good job on mking this!

sven-lowry 2020-10-05 19:28

Loved the graphics and sound, but most of all the message when I died!

unicornfrog 2020-10-05 20:39

Every comment here guarantees a meal for an elf. Tks for vote!

vanea 2020-10-05 22:41

it just crashes on the loading screen when I try to play it D:

unicornfrog 2020-10-05 22:50

we asked the elfs to check. It looks all right @vanea. :O if anyone else has problems just let me know.

thorn 2020-10-06 06:11

Interesting idea I really liked this take on the theme. Although I do have to agree with other players the gratuitous swearing doesn't really do much for me. It feels like its just there for the joke of "Its Santa but he swears"

unicornfrog 2020-10-06 10:58

Hey @thorn, tks for feed back. When we wrote the texts, we imagined a Rick and Morty style. Perhaps it lacked more context and ambiance? But I hope you had fun :)

misterm 2020-10-06 16:35

Like the graphics and the atmosphere.

unicornfrog 2020-10-06 19:49

I like the @misterm beacuse he plays the game :D

jagsyfox 2020-10-07 06:06

Easy 5/5, super impressive

dani-tufeld 2020-10-07 06:44

realy cool graphics, makes my want to play more

unicornfrog 2020-10-07 12:47

you are 5/5 @jagsyfox :heart:

unicornfrog 2020-10-07 15:41

Hey @dani-tufeld you can see your elf body somewhere?

dani-tufeld 2020-10-07 17:30

@unicornfrog what?

unicornfrog 2020-10-07 18:14

@dani-tufeld When you get a top score you can find your body char with your score. :D

dani-tufeld 2020-10-07 18:41

Cool!!

tero-pulkkinen 2020-10-07 22:52

the dynamic light and shadow calculation looks nice. Also tons of nice-looking graphics in the game. And sounds are ok. You just die too easily.

thejohnyfeed 2020-10-07 22:57

The idea of showing other players corpses is really interesting and cool, and the artstyle is also very good!

flatkiwi 2020-10-07 23:01

I love this! showing the corpses and stuff is a neat touch! Great art direction and concept, I really enjoyed it

unicornfrog 2020-10-07 23:33

@tero-pulkkinen Tks! Annotated advice :)

unicornfrog 2020-10-07 23:33

@thejohnyfeed Tks :)

unicornfrog 2020-10-07 23:34

@flatkiwi Tks! We're glad you liked it!

pee-thief 2020-10-07 23:41

haha love rude santa

unicornfrog 2020-10-08 00:31

@pee-thief tks!

ds-nahogara 2020-10-08 06:21

THIS GAME IS COOL!! YOU CAN SEE OTHERS DYING HAHA! Art is great, music is great, gameplay is simple BUT great too, i would add probably more feedback when picking the gifts, but that's it for now! Awesome work :heart:

dsaltares 2020-10-08 06:28

The seeing where others died feature is fantastic. I love the graphics too, excellent job. The game is very hard though! 😅

danielcmcg 2020-10-08 11:42

Amazing art, and it's really cool that you can see the other dead players and their score. Nice polished game, the whole environment just looks great!

projectaroid 2020-10-08 17:46

Very nice game. Great art, audio, and game play. Great work.

unicornfrog 2020-10-08 18:01

@dsaltares tks my friend. We love the score idea too. For challenge your friends. :D

unicornfrog 2020-10-08 18:03

Ow @danielcmcg you are very nice. Tks for the comment. On the ludum dare 47 we prepared for do a more complete game. Because the 46 we fail :/. Lessons learn.

unicornfrog 2020-10-08 18:04

You are great @projectaroid :heart:

simplepotential 2020-10-08 19:12

Outstanding! The art is wonderful and the game play smooth and pretty understandable after one play through. You might need to wash your mouth out with soap after though! Lol

chocolat-endive 2020-10-08 20:28

That was quite fun! It's cool to see other people's score. I really enjoyed that the music gain some speed with the rest of the game.

The only negative side for me is that I think the fire's hitbox is pretty unforgiving but that's not a real problem. Very good job on this one, I'm going to watch your making of video. That a really solid jam game!

mumaitron 2020-10-08 20:34

I really like the looks and the music of this game, and viewing other player deathscores makes you want to go for that mark! good job!

mog13 2020-10-08 20:40

I genuinly laughed. Its quite a simple concept but the execution, humour and showing other scores really elevates it into something special. I enjoyed the experience and atmosphere, great job!

geraldfingburke 2020-10-08 22:12

This one was absolutely hilarious. A wonderful take on the theme and a genuinely enjoyable, difficult game. Kudos!

joh 2020-10-09 04:27

Look at you bothering making such an overkill top score system! This game looked great and played nicely though, super hard for some reasons. But whats up with christmas...in doom dungeon? and swearing? and not the usual kind of elf? Ridiculous stuff all around but hey, thats the fun stuff!

unicornfrog 2020-10-09 11:10

@simplepotential hahahaha, tks for feedback. Glad you liked the game. Yes, we already separated the soap: D

unicornfrog 2020-10-09 11:12

@chocolat-endive The touch of increasing the rhythm of the music was in the last minutes. Tks for comment, you are special to us.

unicornfrog 2020-10-09 11:14

@mumaitron TKs bro. One of us really wanted to make a multiplayer game. It was the path we found for the interaction between the players that fit in the jam

unicornfrog 2020-10-09 11:17

@mog13 I really wanted to generate this feeling. Laughing, funny. It was the start of our personal challenge. I'm very happy with the feed and also to know that it worked. Special moment here. :D

unicornfrog 2020-10-09 11:19

@geraldfingburke, my friend, you don't know how wonderful it is to hear that. We are radiant with happiness reading the comments. Yours deserves a special star. :star2:

unicornfrog 2020-10-09 11:22

@joh When we had the idea and it was winning among the ideas. We had this fear. Talk about Christmas in October? Santa's dungeon? Will it make sense... But even out of sense. We remember Tim Burton's Christmas film with Hallowen. In the end it was an interesting mix. This Christmas dungeon: D

god-colo 2020-10-10 04:23

Man the music is so soothing!!! Nice movement controls! It did not feel too slippery nor too sticky. It was on point! Greato Jobu! :smile:

arad-hamidsamiee 2020-10-11 08:01

It's a really fun addition to see where other players died. Makes it creepy as hell. good job :thumbsup:

somogy 2020-10-11 21:22

Amazing game! I loved! Congrats!

ninnec 2020-10-11 23:12

Really impressive, effort!

unicornfrog 2020-10-12 23:47

@arad-hamidsamiee creeeeeeepy, tks my friend.

unicornfrog 2020-10-12 23:48

huuuu @somogy. You are amazing. Tks :)

unicornfrog 2020-10-12 23:48

@ninnec, really nice you vote and comment. Tks so much :)

wizard-sino 2020-10-19 22:20

maybe some kind of hit-point system would be good, but it's really fun!

el-pepi 2020-10-20 05:17

Great graphics! Nice detail with the other players corpses. It feels kinda weird that you can still control the character for a while once you get hit or when you win.
