Nice and fun little game. I enjoyed it, well done!

Submitted

Fun take on the genre

Submitted

This game is so much fun! It's simple but really enjoyable. Great job!

Submitted

VERY ADICTIVE! I had to restrain myself to keep playing and upgrading my stats

Submitted

wow, didn't know it could be so much fun stealing presents. 

Submitted

This was a really fun one! My only gripe is that by the time I had maxed out all the upgrades I was gaining presents faster than I was able to unwrap them ahahah! Had a blast playing this one, and with a little more polish and more upgrades you could have a really awesome game on your hands. Fantastic work!

Submitted

Fun clicker-like gameplay although I couldn't get how to unlock the middle upgrade nor its required item. Easily addictive!

Really fun clicker that I hope you'll decide to polish up more for the christmas season, I think it has the potential to be a really cool small game! What's working really well already is the overall gameloop and the satisfaction of upgrades. The concept and slowly increasing chaos feel fun!

Background music would have elevated the experience a lot, as would  a few more sound effects for unwrapping and presisng upgrade buttons.

I stopped at 180 parcels - I think at first the way the gifts on the floor move towards the hole on nudging feels quite good and fun, and it's nice that it always moves in the right direction. But once the game gets busier, the gifts get in each others way and get stuck a bit, and I found myself spending most of my time trying to wrangle them to the centre with little control over their movement. I think fixing that somehow would remove a potential frustration point!

Great job, it plays quite well!

Really cool, has everything you want in a clicker game! Had a lot of fun, great job!

Submitted

Very fun! The controls are simple but seeing the automation and speed of the elves go up is very entertaining. I maxed out every stat!

Very well made, congrats!

Submitted

This game was deceptively slow in the beginning but then something happened and chaos let loose haha! I had great fun with this and my poor elven unwrapper couldn't keep up. Super fun, wish there was more!

Ho Ho Ho !

Fun idle / clicker game, I played util I reached a thousand ! My poor unwrapper elf had to much work to do, it couldn't keep up with the presents 

Submitted

Funny incremental(?) concept, it was pleasant to play and cute. One criticism though, it felt a bit pointless and troublesome to have to click 3 times to open a gift, makes the whole game feel slower.

Submitted

Can't stop playing till the end, thanks

Submitted

Cute and fun game. Felt satisfying hitting the gifts mid-air into the hole :D

Glad you let us walk around while opening gifts. Having so many elf snowballers made this an idle game because they also pushed the gifts into the hole.

Fun game and great work!

Submitted

Cool game, maybe adding an elf to put presents in the hole would be nice as they would tend to stack around it and not be able to enter. Good Job.

I had a blast! Love the graphics and the gameplay, it's super fun how everything gets very chaotic at the end. It took me a minute to figure out you need to click on the presents in the upgrade menu but after I got invested fast. The background does stand out a bit with the pixel art esthetic of other assets and I wish there was a bit more to the ending (I may have missed something as I did only play to the 250 gifts which was enough to max everything), but overall the game was great. I also really liked the different colours of the presents.

Hi nice job ! Maybe putting a bit of changes in the gameplay could have been cool, I just always shoot at the same direction without mooving my mouse ^^. Also it is a bit frustrating seeing more gifts around the hole rather than inside... but maybe i'm juste too bad haha ! Graphisms are cute !!
