Actually a lot of fun, @Liquidream ! Real action involved and areas where you can sit and think about what to do next.

Here's a Gold Star for ya.

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

This was fun :)

Love this!

Good god man I realise how late I am to this party but so far yours is the greatest PicoKart I've ever played. If you aren't already a game dev I feel you could manage it

Lots of fun, though I don't understand quite how to use the snow spray.

I think this was great and really a lot of fun. I think the only thing that was a bit fiddly was the Snow Spray mechanic. Well done!

P#123041 2022-12-26 04:23

yes @CrownDeluxe and @binarycrusader, the snow spray is the only secret tool that i could not get to work

thankfully, the houses were designed to be completed without using the snow spray:
i could jump over every camera's field of view and barely make any noise.
then i deliver near the edge of the field of view, where i don't make any noise

Hi all,
Thanks for the kind words 😊

Regarding use of the snow spray - the gameplay GIF above gives a hint how it should be used... 😉

*(Yes, I realise it shouldn't require players to watch this - my fault for not giving more info in the opening instructions - you live, you learn!)

P#123232 2022-12-29 16:25

all houses owners puts the security cameras to see santa for first time... but at what cost
