Ranked from 14 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

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.

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!

Cool concept! I would work on more animations and effects, also more diverse map layouts
