Fun game but I didn't find the hats useful or the theme really integrated but I was impressed by how much you completed. Great work!

Developer

Yo thanks for the feedback! Do the hats not feel very powerful? I can try boosting their strength for ones like the double shots, like I could make it a spread shot instead. If I were to try making this more "complete" are there any hat powerup ideas you had in mind?

That was amazing on how much you've implemented in your game in this short duration of time. I hope, I'll also be able to do something like this someday.

Developer

Thank you so much!! I'll be honest and say the stuff that I was able to cram into my game are iterations on systems I've already made before on failed projects, and I only figured out how to do all the wacky stuff that I can do now with tons of practice and watching lots and lots of YouTube tutorials! I got to try out your game ChrisMaze and I think it's pretty good for a game jam game! I think you got this, it comes down to learning from a lot of different sources and then practices making stuff and seeing what works/doesn't work, and then iterating on those systems. Never give up!! 😋

Cool design, I would like to see the final version))

Developer

Thank you very much! I would love to continue the project if enough people are interested in playing a full version! I'm currently working on another bigger project so time is scarce, but it could be the next game after it if people are interested 👍

A fun "space invaders" kinda game. Good looking and good music. I have to say that the theme and special feature implementation are very poor, but after that, still amazing. Very cool.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I definitely was struggling with coming up with ways to actually make it more Christmas-like haha, I think I focused strictly on the gameplay a bit more than I should've, looking back I think I could've done more to make powerups/weapons that actually make it feel like it's a Christmas game,and maybe a few main gameplay mechanics too like delivering presents, etc. I wanted to add more but realized I had to wrap it up eventually haha, glad you enjoyed it though!!
