Heya! That's a cool game :) I liked it. If you want a more in-depth review:
Visual & Audio
The game looks good and consistent, and the sounds are well-chosen. Not too aggressive SFX and sweet BGM. I liked it :)
Tutorial
The tutorial screen is good, it shows everything you need to know. Maybe a bit too much text to read at once, but for a 48h jam, it's enough :) A future improvement would be to gradually increase the number of enemies, turrets to have the player learn little by little :)
Gameplay
- I liked that we have 3 different enemies and 3 different turrets. Their difference is simple but it adds variety to the game.
- The money management between seasons is cool, too. You have to find a compromise between current and future safety.
- I feel like the difficulty difference between fall and the 2nd winter is a bit huge though. Or maybe did I manage my money poorly.
Fun
I guess I had fun, even though that's not the type of games I actually enjoy usually. So that's a good point imo!
Bugs
There is a little visual glitch when a Santa dies, sometimes its body stays on the ground, sometimes not. I'm not sure whether it's intended or not.
Theme
I liked the little story when I died, definitely in the theme :)

SurpriseI liked the game, especially the inclusion of ammo is something that is interesting and I don't always see in these types of games. Also the season changing is pretty cool. I will say the game felt quite easy to me and also I'd have liked it if I had more to do while the turrets are shooting the enemies. Maybe let me pick up money from dead enemies or something along the lines? Overall, good work!
Very good! fall wave was hard, got stomped. nice level of polish for the time span.

winter WONDERLANDReally liked this one, it was a nice little tower defence game! Only problem I have is that if you start a new season with not enough money, you can't get any from the enemies as you don't have enough towers - though that's fair for a 48 hour game. Good work!

Santa's Great IdeaI have a soft spot for TD games so I really like this :)
But please add a speed up button. It is crucial.
Good job nonetheless!

The Naughty KidsI really like this game, it's a well put together TD for 48 hours. Only thing is, this doesn't really have a surprise element

Tarot TwistPretty decent tower defence game. The most impressive thing is actually that you got it all working this short amount of time. Good job! :)

Riddle Bros: The Final Pushahh, this takes me back. great job friend. the only gripe i have is the tutorial seems to have blurry letters while the turrets aren't, but that's nothing to worry too much about!
