Santa's Sadistic Sleigh Service (VIC20+3k)

[Rich]

A game by Misfit

My x-mas game for your humble VIC-20. It needs 3k memory expansion and good nerves.

Go right and shoot all evil candies. Satan Santa Claus (our hero) needs sugar.

Enjoy!

Btw. tested on VICE emulator. Send feedback if you have problems on real HW.
PAL only because I'm so lazy and busy (sorry)

Very punishing gameplay, but I guess that's the point... Super nice two-way scrolling in any case!

It needs 3k memory expansion [...]

Here's the game relocated for use with +8K RAM expansions (download).

This might be even more aggravating than Flappy Bird! The instant death ground (mountain?) is the worst.

Playing with a joystick helped me a little but not much. I managed a score of 1980.
