'Christmas Spit' is a cute little comedy about a deer guy trying to prepare a nice Christmas day for his boyfriend, only for everything to go wrong. It's a pretty standard plot as far as holiday specials go, where the farce is that the guy trying to make everything 'just perfect' forgets the important thing of just spending time together. You get all the classic gags of forgetting to thaw the chicken, trying to compensate by cooking it at a higher temp, taking a shower and opening the door naked, and all the other kinds of unfortunate mishaps. I enjoyed all the extra furry-fied references too. The art style is charming in it's MSPaint simplistic stick figures with animal heads, and all the backgrounds done in MSPaint too. Overall, it's a quaint simple little story, and its a quick read. For your next VN, I suggest you try to push yourself a bit more creatively. Using the pre-made sprites and some common license backgrounds with some photo-filters will save you time in creating assets. When drafting a story, try to add a bit more conflict or challenges for the protagonist to overcome. Try to flesh out your characters a bit more, giving them goals and motivations other than just being a 'nice person'. You've proven that you're capable of finishing a project, now try to up the difficulty a bit.

thank you so much for playing! Also I've read a few of your comics in the past and always enjoyed them so having you play my game is awesome! Yeah I agree completly with your review, I've learnt a lot from this jam that I'm excited to implement next time!
