We didn't finish :( 
Just thought we'd post the idea and some screenshots from what we made.

Lots of great artwork!

Cute/fun and challenging! 

Great idea, custom scenarios/hacks are great with family coming over for the holidays.

Love the community uploads feature, creating and sharing designs feels super fun!

Thanks for hosting!

It's fun to sprint around whacking the elves, I definitely had the sense of excitement when I spawned it and saw the environment and started running around.

Excellent use of theme!

This was awesome, I loved the dialogue and it made be want to keep reading and exploring the level. The snowman detective sprite is awesome, too. 

Awesome art style!

This was fun, I played for a long time! Wanted to get a huge pack of cats and I love the different cat designs.

Didn't mind it being short, I loved that you got a lot of different attacks in with a working mana system, and working enemies. It was fun. 

Thanks, I am glad you like it! I would have submitted earlier if I wasn't told there was a "grace period". 

I think I got stuck when I fell on the first obstacle, but other than that I thought it was a great use of the theme and has a nice snowman building mechanic.

Apologies for that, I set the goal to 10 presents instead of 10,000 for testing the win screen and forgot to remove it. Had the fix ready 1 minute after the deadline - anyway, you can play the fixed version here and adjust your rating if you so choose: https://brettjsantema.itch.io/cozy-globe-v2

I really like the cozy nighttime fireplace vibe. Crackling fire was a nice touch.

Cute and fun

Love the character models, and I like the challenging puzzle aspect of the game.

Ran smoothly, think it would be more fun with more game mechanics.

Now I want hot chocolate

Ran smooth, like how you can swap characters.

I really love the art style, it looks fantastic.

Looks great I am impressed this was made in scratch!

Unfortunately I could not run the game.

Nice, I was able to play through and save all the puffkins. It could use more game mechanics and level design but you can tell it's coded well (love the background) and the pixel art is great.

I love the layout/design for all the rules and printouts.

Love the art style and the explosion.

It's a nice environment, just needs more functionality. Machines to generate snow, shovel it, etc.

I think I got punished for spamming the lever too much, my tube got jammed with presents. Cute game!

Ran smooth, nice work! Got 200 points.

Ran smooth, love the snowman models.

The elves making swords is funny. This is really really impressive for 3 days, a cute/fun working 3d game with your own models. 

Good concept, I think a more cohesive art style would have helped. Menu is pixel art (but not hand made?) and game is non-pixel art.

Game is fun! Brick breaker / pong type games never get old.

Game ran smooth, enjoyed the vibes.

10/10 Art

Wow that's good to hear, I am glad you enjoyed it! Your comment is not too long and the feedback is greatly appreciated. We definitely had lots of fun stretch goals or ideas. Some of the main ones are:

• For buildings, we wanted to make it more of a top down view with more rows for buildings, and manually place and sell buildings.
• Villagers make different resources
• Villager movement/animations/AI to have them milling about or doing activities
  
• Different buildings give bonuses to specific villager types
• Buy/place decorations
• Feed the villagers different treats

Our idea to match the "Better Together" theme was to have more of a village simulator with villagers working together.
