Merry Christmas! It's been a couple of years since I've posted here with a crappy little Christmas game (Santa's Leap). Surprisingly enough, here is another crappy little Christmas game, Santa's Ascent.
It is, of course, a prequel to Santa's Leap. In Santa's Leap, sleigh-less Santa was already atop the chimneys and leaping from rooftop to rooftop. In Santa's Ascent, however, he is first faced with a skyscraper which he must ascend, then once inside deliver presents, and then finally re-ascend inside the chimney.
Avoid the large snowballs (outside) and burning hot coals (inside the chimney stack). Deliver to all the Christmas trees and in a decent time to avoid getting insulted.
You can't die in this - you're Santa after all. You can, however, become indefinitely trapped in fire if you're not careful. No-where in the rules does it say that Santa can't suffer.
Good luck!
Thanks BBoras! It's much easier on a keyboard than on-screen controls.
Well done, Verb! I didn't actually think that anyone would manage that jump on mobile, so much that I uploaded a revised version with the pole and ladder extended there. Looks like you're somehow playing the initial harder version!
By the time I reached the top after some pretty difficult play, I had completely forgotten about my mission as Santa Claus!
But maybe because of that, I ended up having three times as much fun as I expected.
I hope it was your goal to create the most annoying ladder controls in all of platform gaming? If so, you succeeded! Tough but fair.
First attempt: got stuck in the fire at the bottom of the chimney.
Second attempt: finished.
Third attempt: finished with this time.
A sterling effort, Cowirrie!
It might not have been my primary goal, but I'll gladly accept that accolade :)
What can I say, those ladders are dang icy!
