Here Comes Santa Claus
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
It's Christmas Eve and Santa is coming. Prepare the house for his arrival. Surely there is nothing scary about a jolly intruder in the night and things should play out normally.
Controls:
Move - WASD
Interact - E
Quit to Menu - ESC Key
This game was made in 2-3 weeks as a personal challenge to make a holiday themed game starting on December 1 and completing development before the holidays. Enjoy!
Please let me know if you encounter any issues! Due to the short development window and hectic holiday season it is very possible I accidentally overlooked some bugs.

Why is the child scarier than the killer himself ;-;
A great game, well programmed and worth playing. Give it a try!
Hello JoeTheItchPro,
I make games on ROBLOX as a newbie and stumbled across your game GO TO BED. I was wondering can I try and recreate this game on ROBLOX STUDIO? This would give me a better idea at game making and scripting since I would do this alone. I would give you credits for the main idea. Thank you.
I loved GO TO BED and saw you had released another game. This was really well made.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I liked watching your gameplay. Thanks for checking out another one of my games!
Hello,I am willing to translate this game into Chinese.
Hi. good game. I had a lot of fun playing your game
Amazing!
Thank you! Nice video!
I wasn't expecting that plot twist at the end, having played your previous game I should have expected it xD.
No me esperaba ese giro argumental al final, habiendo jugado tu anterior juego debería habérmelo esperado xD.
Thank you for playing this game too! Your video was good. I liked seeing you remember the other game haha!
¡Gracias por jugar este juego también! Tu vídeo estuvo bueno. ¡Me gustó verte recordar el otro juego! haha
IT really scared me... How will I sleep at night after that?
I am glad/sorry it scared you! Hopefully you could still sleep for when Santa came. Thanks for playing and for making a video!
12:14 Good game!!

No problem! It was very fun game! keep it up man!
That is an interesting idea! I didn't want the player to be too aware of a possible twist, but I can see a future game using the idea you described. Thanks for playing!
Thanks for checking it out and making a video!
Glad you liked it! I enjoyed your video too. You had great energy. Keep it up!
Awesome third house experience
Thanks! I liked your video as well.
Damn, this was strange but pretty enjoyable! The main part of the game was pretty interesting, and makes you wonder how it's even a horror game, then the twist came and spiced things up! The font change was pretty neat (also i think the main font and color was pretty bad lol). the twist was pretty solid. The impostor reminded me quite a bit of analog horror, especially The Mandela Catalogue, which is by no means bad, even though i personally find it very overdone and don't like the trope very much. The child jumpscare was pretty funny too!
Thanks for checking it out! I agree that the Christmas font is kinda ugly (it's hard to get those colors to look nice haha). Was definitely inspired by TMC for the look, even though it is a shadowy figure and not a shapeshifting creature. I also agree the child looks dopey haha. It was partially meant to be a bit silly to have the shift in tone during the twist be more prominent. Thanks again for playing!
