Holiday Edition Goes Away New Years Day

About 

This is a minimum prototype for a game that is being designed by my 5 year-old daughter Gemma. I am programming in Construct 2 and creating sprites in MS Paint under her direction. All of the character names, designs, powers, etc are her ideas and begin as her own drawings. She sits next to me and critiques heavily as I put the pieces together on her behalf. Honestly, she'd probably do it all herself but programming involves a lot of reading. This is Gemma's project, and it was her idea to bring it to life. 100% of your donations to this project go directly into Gemma's piggy bank. See the devlog for some of Gemma's concept documents.

This game was short and sweet. Just what I needed on Christmas Eve! It was really rewarding saving Santa from that cage so we all can enjoy a very merry Christmas.


Great job Gemma!
