How did you implement the Theme?
Light is used to reveal things that are otherwise hidden in the dark - in this case Santa. Children try to find the legendary Santa using the light from their flashlights to navigate the dark.
How did you add the Special Object?
To give Santa(and the player) an edge, the bell was added as an item the players could throw to distract the children and successfully place presents.

This was pretty fun! Very unique! Keep working on this one!
got me thinking this is a horror game lol. good job mate! fun game!
Simple and fun. The sound adds to the suspense and, as mohid_The_Dev said, the children are terrifying in a good way. Nice work!
To be honest, I didn't take the game over screen seriously; the rest was so-so, but I don't mean to say it was bad.
If you expand on this project please keep the children just as terrifying. Nice implementation of the bell!
This game is such a vibe dude
I do wish the bell had a noise when throwing it, but apart from that this one was cool!
I really like the low poly style, jumpscare felt so real x)) also very fun to play, I would have loved to continue playing other levels! :D
Really fun, I think with some polish this could be amazing! Love the noiseless jumpscare lmao
best. game. ever. 10/10, better than assassin's creed
Cool concept! I would work on more animations and effects, also more diverse map layouts
