Super charming entry, lots of little details that work really well, nice entry! The Act 1 text and camera zoom out was a really cool way to introduce the world, and reminded me a little of Paper Mario: TTYD when you enter a new region. Santa's note was a fun bit of environmental storytelling, and was a great way of explaining the world without feeling forced. The snail animation is super cute, but the movement is wayyy to slow (ik its a snail so it should move slow lol, but still). The slow movement, combined with large stretches of either just walking forward or doing some super simple platforming makes the game feel kind of boring after a little bit. Which is a shame because you created a really interesting world feel and environment that is worth exploring, but the slow movement doesn't make me want to explore too much. The different candy cane NPCs were an awesome touch and made the world feel very immersive. I loved the way the their text scrolled onto the screen as you stood near them, it was very pleasing to the eye for some reason. Also, I appreciated that the platforming was fairly forgiving and that as long as part of the snail made the jump it didn't cause the player to fall.  Overall, I enjoyed my time with your game and think you have a really cool world built up through some well-done environmental storytelling. Tweaking the movement to feel a bit faster and more satisfying would take it to the next level. Cool entry, and keep up the good work!!
