CARL HATES CHRISTMAS. feat. BOOMERANGS.

* You are Carl.
* Carl hates Christmas!
* Steal all twelve presents from flat-earth Santa. Make the world a better place.

Design props to my pal Nick.

CONTROLS
* WASD to move
* Mouse to aim & click to throw boomerang

OBJECTIVES
* Hit Santa for presents.
* Don't let them crush you.
* Avoid Bombs, Christmas Puddings, Moles and Mistletoe Kisses. _You HATE Christmas!_

POWERUPS
* Star of Bethlehem
* Moon Boots
* Hoverboard
* Fire Protection
* Multiple Boomerangs!
* Book of Aerodynamics!
* Saving Grace - Extra Life

TOOLS
* C++ using ARK2D Framework, with Emscripten for WebGL build.
* Photoshop CC 2017 for art and animations.
* Reaper DAW with ReaSynth VST and ReaSamplomatic5000 VST for music. Drum samples are C64, I think.
* BFXR & ChipTune for SFX.

HINTS
* Hit the Christmas Puddings before they touch the ground.
* Moles cannot hurt you when you have Boots or Hoverboard.
* Give me some hints?

REMARKS
* Was going to do LOOT BOXES with permanent effects instead of power ups but I ran out of time/energy.
