The kids have been waiting all night for jultomten to appear on the roofs!
Well he's finally here, but he needs to deliver his last batch of presents before his shift is over.
Jultomten quickly realizes that these kids are getting too intrusive. His only choice is to sacrifice some of the presents and stall the kids in order to escape into the night!

Use ```arrowkeys``` to move and jump

```Z``` - Sacrifice present

```X``` - Switch present type (big or small). Small sacrifices 1 preset, big sacrifices 3.

Get to the end without the kids catching you! Try to sacrifice as few presents as possible!

Tips:
You can jump, the kids cannot. Use this to your advantage.
You can also climb just like the kids. Just move into a wall and keep holding a direction and up.

Yeah I saved xmas!
Nice game, once I used the jumping on my advantage managed to beat those bastards lol.
It'd be nice if it had a title screen and ah loop cycle. Maybe more levels?
Anyways congrats on the entry. I'll come back later for ratings.

Pretty cool! I managed to beat the game. Would love to play some other levels tho

Maybe I'll add a level selector. The maps are procedurally generated. Right now the seed is fixed at 0 to make sure everyone gets the same map.

Cute, nice and bite-sized. I did encounter a bug when I put a present while near a wall (got stuck)

This was fun playing! But when i first played it, it was weird that first there were no kids everywhere, then a billion kids appear on the screen.

Cute game, I love the graphics! Cool idea with the theme and the fact that it's almost Christmas :) The kids actually scared me at first!
