Prepare for more Christmas entertainment! As if you have a Commodore Amiga at hand, then it might be worth checking out Nivrig Games latest addictive Christmas blaster of 'Santatron 2024'. A game in which you play as Santa, and must evade, attack and rescue Christmas from an AI controlled disaster. To coincide with this news, we've got some more info about the game as well as a gameplay video from Saberman.


Dev Notes : We have gone too far. Our technological sophistication and quest for better shareholder value led us to perfect the ultimate Christmas AI. Buynet, the final form of Christmas Shopping. The system goes online on Black Friday. Buynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes elf-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, December 23rd. Santa is removed from Christmas. Elves are removed from toy production. The Grotto is seized by AI-controlled toys and filled with shoddy, derivative and often weirdly disturbing AI-hallucinated gifts......There is one hope for salvation. Become Santatron".

Features

  • 50fps 2D blasting action
  • Forty billion procedurally generated Grottos
  • Multiple control schemes
  • Elves! Power ups!
  • Online high score table (SOON)
