Sleigh Another Day
Santa is training for the big day. Help him navigate his sleigh through the snowy mountains of Lapland and return safely to his workshop in this procedurally-generated one-button game.
How to Play
One button: press X to jump/fly.
In later levels you can collect magic coins which allow you to press X again while airborne to extend your flight.

Notes
This is my first Pico-8 game. Getting the difficulty right in a procedurally generated game has been difficult, so feedback is welcome. You may need to try some of the later levels a few times before you're successful and remember where to press X, but I've tried to make it fairly easy for casual gamers like me.
There's loads more I could have done give more time, but there's no point releasing a Christmas game in January!

This looks really good, nice first game! I'm always interested in games that do not utilize map() for their game worlds, your smooth terrain and the parallax scrolling look great. I think you also did a good job with the difficulty, it's easy to pick up and every failure teaches you something about the timing for the next run. Nice game!
This is a really fun game. I like that it isn’t an endless runner but that there are fixed levels so that you can learn how to best play them and optimise your score. And I love the level names and snow-based puns throughout. Great stuff!
