A very nice game Sokurah ! I really enjoy it. Nice graphics and a nice pace of gameplay ! December will be loads of fun B)

TIP > make sure to change the default "Noname" to your initials / name using the Settings Menu. My initials are not visible at the snapshot because I haven't been able to beat 38,300 points...yet ;)

Well, to everyone who played - thank you.

Personally I feel that my Christmas games are some of my weaker games. The quality is there - codingwise (imho) - but the gameplay is perhaps a bit too easy. So yeah - if you like what you've seen here - codingwise - then you should really take a look at some of my other games. Some of them will definitely put sweat on your brow. :D

I very much enjoyed your Christmas games and I'll make sure to have a look at your other games :)

I'll definitely have a look at "Omega Race 2009" which was chosen as Remake of the Month by Retro Gamer Magazine. Fortunately there is one shop in my hometown which sells this amazing magazine :) It's very cool that your game was mentioned in this magazine a few years ago B)

I actually love Omega Race 2009 myself too - I think it's one of my best games. Very playable and perfectly balanced so I'm happy that it was selected as GOTM in RG. I've had a few games in there as well...including two interviews too. I wonder if I'll ever get in there again...but if I don't then I can at least say that I've had my 15 minutes. :lol:
