Yule is the ancient name in the Germanic lunar calendar for a winter festival corresponding to December and January. Later, yule referred to the 12-day holiday associated with the Feast of the Nativity after the widespread adoption of Christianity through Northern Europe. Christmas is just another tradition stolen & twisted into the capitalistic version of today. I fail to see how you can claim to have invented it.
Anonymous, thanks for the history lesson. I think you need to chill out. Maybe pour yourself a little rum and eggnog, kick back and try not to take everything so seriously. It was a game about pushing sleds into holes, it isn't actually a commentary on economics or the deterioration of the values surrounding Christmas.
I don't understand what the goal is on the level with reindeer? There is no hole to push the sled into and what is that at the bottom that shows a big X when you move the sled?
I invented Christmas! That last level was a challenge.
ReplyDeleteThis is really nice. I am sometimes irritated with games that introduce totally alien new mechanics part-way through, but this one gets away with it.
ReplyDeleteI also apparently invented Christmas, so that's cool.
Guess I was the third to invent Christmas. Better late than never! :)
ReplyDeleteShort, but sweet.
Hmm, inventing Christmas via alien abduction...
