Awesome Boss game made for Secret Santa 2022 where you fight a snowman with melee attacks. Despite being made in Unity and having nonstandard game-play, it was easy to get the hang of things and the fight was fun to learn. Would recommend to all boss enjoyers.

Definitely a cool idea for a game but there a couple nagging issues the whole time which really brought the experience down, the biggest one by far being the attack with branches from the ground, I just can't see them for the life of me which made the attack feel like just guessing the timing, which was always frustrating. The hammer attack is also way faster than the others and the laser attack is sometimes literally free and sometimes really tough. The risk-reward melee combat is somewhat interesting but it mostly felt kinda repetitive, especially since the charge attack is literally worthless. Not a bad game but unfortunately one that annoyed me quite a bit.

As always, Chrisay delivers on the presentation front. He's always able to make fangames look so amazing even with a limited time. I love how the snowman animates.
The boss to me reminds me of Justice Guy which for many is a draw. Personally, I'm not the biggest fan of bosses in that vein because it feels like I'm often playing an intro I can't sleep through before playing harder versions of the same attacks. There's no way for me to practice on the harder versions and I just get frustrated when I'm not dodging well. In other words I got skill issued by this.

Amazing single boss game featuring a unique combat system. The boss feels really good to play, and the progression of the stages feels intuitive and easy to adapt to. The difficulty feels pretty good, and the different attacks are pretty well balanced.
My biggest gripe is the clunkiness of moving while attacking. It seems the intent is that you can't move while attacking (which is something I dislike already), but it ends up feeling pretty inconsistent. It also interferes with your dash, occasionally causing you to dash in place while still losing energy. This feels pretty bad, and adds some inconsistency to dodging things like the hammer attack, which requires a fast reaction time. However, this didn't ruin my enjoyment of the boss, and this game is still and easy recommendation.

Very fun single-boss game. The difficulty is mostly in learning the different moves he has, but you get HP to make the learning process much smoother. There's also an EX version of the boss that's harder, but it's not as scary as it looks.
