----------------------------------------

I restarted after 1.5 days of the Jam, so it was pretty rushed in the end, but I was happy with the result.

The gameplay ended up pretty close to my first Ludum Dare (#35, entry at http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-35/?action=preview&uid=90062 ) as well as my 7DRL entry ( https://itch.io/jam/7drl-challenge-2018/rate/230931 ), but the Sacrifice part was a nice twist.

How far you've made it is saved in between sessions so you can return to the latest level you got to.

Do let me know if you manage to get to the End screen - especially the last level is pretty hard!

Its a solid game with good graphic. Amazing considering you restarted it after 1.5 days.

Pretty nifty graphics! Those deer are creepy looking! The pathfinding on the deer seems a bit quirky and I found that they spun around in odd circles if you went too fast, but otherwise, the gameplay was pretty solid. The lack of various expected audio elements detracts a bit from the mood but the lighting does a pretty good job of providing ambiance and feel. Good stuff.

Veery nice. Complete mini game with fun setting. It's a bit creepy but just enough. Just loosely connected to the theme.

Had a little "Theseus and the Minotaur" feel to it. Very enjoyable, good job for the self imposed reduced time.

Nice game ! I like the idea of getting the blooddear to eat the penguins, although in the beginning the goal of the game isn't made very clear. The music fits the nightmarish-christmas atmosphere very well.
Good job !

Cool puzzle game. Easy to get the hang of but challenging to think through some of the solutions. Excellent job on mood. What's the theme connection, that I'm sacrificing innocents by letting the deer get them? Since killing them is required it doesn't feel like much of a sacrifice. But yeah, I liked pretty much everything about it. Nice work.
