Santa's packing heat!
The game is fine if you know what you're getting for your money, which is to say it is a short and very simple game with no bells or whistles. All you do in this game is walk down a strait path (always towards the top right of your screen), and shoot enemies, and once in a while you encounter a very easy boss, that's it, that's the whole game in a nutshell. I've yet to encounter any secrets or alternate routes after having beaten 3 bosses so I guess there just aren't any in the game. The game does not seem very optimized and will start to drop frames hard if too much is going on on the screen, which will happen often because there are many sections in the game where you have to fight a large horde of enemies all at once. Luckily you can tone down the graphics substantially in the options menu and this helps. The game is fun though, just be aware its one of those hard to aim games due to perspective. Safe points are very generous at the start and slowly become more sparse which increases the challenge of the game. The hit boxes with boss attacks are kinda wonky though so keep that in mind. Every boss I've encountered so far I've beaten on my first try, so they are not very hard but that's not to say they are poorly designed, I think I just got lucky so far and picked the right weapon for the fight every time. Enemy variety/Encounter design/Level design is all good enough to keep things fresh and entertaining. The music isn't all that great but provides a ok atmosphere. Ultimately the game's not great but its also not bad, you can have fun with it if you keep your expectations in check. Just shoot, hack, and grenade your way to victory over the dead bodies of your Christmas themed enemies.
