Please explain why your team qualifies for the category you chose.
I have only started learning how to program 4 months ago, did this one on my own.
How does your game relate to the theme?
I used the theme "Charm" in multiple ways
- Having to charm the enemy elf with flute
- The charms on the bracelet that is placed on enemy when they are "charmed"
- The magical charms from the flute itself
- The charming appeal of the game
Also implemented Winter theme.
Specify any and all pre-made assets in your submission.
The only premade asset I used in any way is the following:
- Player and Background sprites by ArMM1998: https://opengameart.org/content/zelda-like-tilesets-and-sprites
I edited the player sprite and background myself.
Everything else I did on my own in the past 72 hours.

Really liked the Elf animation. How did you learn to animate? I dunno how to animate but it looks like you used this rough color blocking approach to sketch out some frames? I was able to set the elf free!
Thank you so much for playing! Yes each body part is a separate color and layer so that they can be moved individually, in between frames. Once everything looks good then I'll make another layer with details. Oh and I start with just the hand and do entire animation with just a hand then build each body part from there. AdamCYounis on YT is where I learned that technique.
oh awesome okay thanks that helps a lot. I actually started following him recently! I will look through more of his tutorials.
