pixels for christmas 2020 [browser]

Hohoho, it's time for a new/old bontegame! I didn't get to make a Christmas themed game this year, but I dusted off this one from some years ago that I had to release in a rush at the time. Now the game is scalable so you can play it even in full screen (just press that button in the bottom right corner). I optimized it and also updated it to support any mobile browser too, so you can also play it on your phone or tablet.
Enjoy Pixels for Christmas: It's almost Christmas, so get all the golden pixels to get a nice surprise! And no there is no map, it would spoil the ending ;) Merry platforming!

  10. missed a branch and had to travel the entire length of the map to get my last 10%... was frustrating to sometimes die and be teleported to my last collected coin

  11. Thank you for this game! I was really afraid to die the first time, because I thought maybe I have to start over the collecting - thank you for the unlimited life! :-) Funny, but I made a huge mistake, when I deicided to collect the easy ones first, and I left the monster guarded ones for later. I was at 95% when I only figured that the last checkpoint is always the last collected golden dot, and that moment I had to cross 4 different monstergroup to reach the next "checkpoints dot".:-D

    It was really fun, not too hard but entertaining, and I loved the map, thank you!

  12. That was such a nice little game, Bart! Thanks, and have a nice holyday!

  13. Great game.
    Strategy is... eat a dot right beside monsters.
    This saves a lot of back tracking if you respawn.

  14. This is a very dark and morbid game

    It's only masquerading as cute innocent holiday classic

    Every time you die, you're blown apart into chunks of flesh, represented by white pixels. And what's all over the ground and dripping from the ceilings? Flesh! Bits of bodies everywhere!

    Just imagine all the white pixels being red

    :D

  15. Really good game, with just the right amount of difficulty except for one thing. If you miss a "stash" of coins, it can be really hard to figure out where the missing coins are. I finally had to find a video of the game to figure it out. I'd suggest a "hint mode" of some sort. So maybe you can only activate the hint mode if you have 90% or more coins. Maybe there's a time element, where time is counted and when you turn on hint mode, time goes twice as fast. As for the hint itself, I almost envision a "hot or cold" type thing, with a light that turns on if you're heading towards the missing coins, and turns off it you're moving away from them. Anyway, that's just my suggestion to make this a perfect game... Some type of optional "hint mode."

  16. Just as good as when you released the original. Thanks for another Christmas game, Bart! I can't believe I've been following your blog for 11 years... ever since Full Moon brought me here... and all the way to the end of Flash. Thanks for all the memories! I'm playing all my sentimental Flash favorites this week. Anyone know if there will be a way to keep playing them into the future?

  17. @Rebecca +Rebecca I'm not sure if/how tagging works on here. It's been a while. This is a way to keep playing Flash games: https://bluemaxima.org/flashpoint/. It doesn't have all of them, but it has a lot. I'm not sure about Bart's games because I've already played them all, but I know it at least has some.
