Challenging game! I included it in my GameDevNetwork: The Big Festive Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

If you are the real Santa, why people would arrest you? :O :O :O And why the boy would prefer a green book over ball/3ds/cookies?! This family is not a casual one! The only thing that got me was thinking that you can be seem by the family, but actualy you can get caught by them :) Keep doing games team!
Nice 2D stealth mechanics :) and perfectly fitted in the time. In particular I liked the fact that you have to chose the right gift to put under the tree! well done :)
I never knew Santa was so short! Great job on the submission, one comment I have is that I wasn't sure where I started at the beginning, perhaps some kind of vignette around the screen at the start to draw attention may help.
On a smaller note, keep an eye on your sense of scale when building up a level, I would imagine the woman in the scene has a hard time getting through the door!
We appreciate your feedback a lot!
I fully agree with your first point, and admit that I didn't think about it, haha. I imagine it could be hassle to find our little Santa. The scale was rather intentional as a hint to indicate that she wouldn't be able to pass through doors, and she moves fast between two smaller waypoints -- which makes it harder to dodge from her and would make her STRONGER in a sense.
Thank you for trying out our game, and hosting this awesome event liamsorta. We had a great fun making this game and playing others' works!
Good stealth game, got all the way through before realizing I gave the wrong gift. Clever!
The game worked fine. Very challenging to be a stealth Santa! Congrats for finishing!
build issues. I left the error message I got on the game's community page.
