I think I broke this game in more ways that I thought possible.

Sometimes the letters don't go into the bag, unless I place another letter to take its place,
The walls don't have collision,
The letters can spawn in the void,
and finally: Sometimes when I grab letters to move them, I go flying along with the letter, can only move up or down in a reasonable sense, and I move at around 1000 miles per second across the infinite void.

Thankfully I can still stir myself, and somehow I managed to get 40 or 50 points while in a level like that. Which is kinda ironic, because on the next level like that, I got -10 points once the timer ended. Now what you need to know is: I had 140 points before that, but I started going out so far out into the endless void, that I got a score of -1 at the end. No idea how that happened!

Edit: Oh, I forgot to mention that I did have fun playing. The bugs didn't make the game unplayable for me, quite the opposite. If there weren't bugs, I probably wouldn't have played around so much, it was hilarious!

Like others said there are quite some bugs in the game XD . Each level (probably unintentionally) introducing a new delivering mechanic hahaha. The bugs made it kinda unplayable in the way you intended but i still had a good laugh because of the funny bugs, which is great. Also the idea was good.

Thanks for the feedback and its being noted  all the issues you see in this build will be fixed in the future (: hoped you enjoyed Santa's little bugs while they're there.

Are you supposed to be shot around at high speed after you picked up an envelope? And are skins supposed to not do anything and is the score supposed to be a 10th of the points? I'm super confused. Also the timer goes into the negative after the round ended ^^'

Developer

those are unfortunate  bugs for the game in which we attend to  fix after the  voting  period  but thanks for pointing them out

Ah okay, sorry you experienced so many bugs

Nice! The controls and movement for dragging letters around is a little wonky, but apart from that, nice idea, and nice execution!

I'm so sorry about that    I accidentally left it as webgl playable

I "forgot" about that and replayed the game. It's still pretty bugged.  In the first level, the velocity of the player is broken when I am carrying the letters. I also can exit the map. I like the idea though and the graphics! Ignoring the unpolished physics, it's a nice game.
