This is a fun little holiday game where you play as Santa Clause out to collect presents (or something to that effect).

The first thing I noticed were some very nice cusotm made graphics, including a full screen illusration. Its always good to see people put in some extra effort in presentation, so that got things off to a good start.

Controlling Santa was a breeze. Play control was pretty solid with good hit detection, allowing Santa to navigate around enemies with precision.

Sounds were well chosen for the most part. The only things that really bothered me was the sound effects for getting hit by enemies. I didn't really care if Santa died, but I avoided enemies at all costs just so I wouldnt have to listen to that sound again! I guess that could be considered a good thing however, oh well.

This game was build pretty solid, I only noticed one spot where it looked like the game bugged up. When I entered level 2, I died in mid air as soon as the level started. As soon as my next life kicked in, things were ok.

Lastability is pretty good, I stuck with this game for a while. I played several levels before I felt Santas bag was as full as it needed to be. So for a jolly 10 minute Christmas romp, I recommend this game.

The game also comes with some very stylish special effects. Things sparkle and twinkle and everything is pleasing to the eye. Powerups are well made, although the eggnog is a bit hard to catch.

Its also a small file, so that is always good to see.

Good job!
