Xmas Craze
A downloadable game for Windows, Linux, and Android
Xmas Craze is a special Christmas-themed edition of the tactical puzzle
game Shift'em Mania which features procedural generated levels where you play against AI
or another Human via local multiplayer mode. Game graphics and music were completely redesigned in order to create a very bright and festive Christmas mood.
Game objective is to get player's color balls to the bottom of a maze.
Well, it's not quite as simple as it looks like as the levels are filled
with various obstacles, such as ramps, walls and portals which will affect the movement of the ball.
Think thoroughly before making each move in order to get the ball further down and achieve the
highest possible score. Block your opponent by pushing your color balls
into strategic positions to stop him from doing the same to you. Use
walls to your advantage and collect bonus score. Accumulate Megapower
bonus and destroy the obstacles.
There are several levels of difficulty when you play against the computer. "Easy" and "Normal" difficulty levels are great for children and beginner players, but if you are self confident try to beat computer player at "Hard" or "Extreme" levels of difficulty as there will be hardly any space for a mistake.

Dear Existical,
I hope you’re doing well! My name is Emi, and I’m reaching out from Banzan Studios, the team behind SnackR—an exciting new platform that combines the best of TikTok, YouTube, and Patreon, specifically designed for creators like you.
We’ve been following your work, and we’re particularly impressed by your project "Xmas Craze" The creativity behind it caught our attention, and we believe it would resonate well with our growing audience on SnackR.
SnackR is an all-in-one platform where creators can share games, animations, and comics, and engage with a dedicated mobile-first audience. This is built by a team of folks who have been creators themselves and have faced the same problems that young creators like you do. Each feature and functionality is built while keeping the ‘Creator’ in mind. We're focused on giving creators control over their content and its reach, and we'd love for you to be part of this journey.
While "Xmas Craze" truly stood out to us, you’re not limited to submitting just that—we’d be thrilled to explore any other game or project you think might be a great fit for SnackR as well.
If you're interested in learning more about how SnackR could benefit you and help you reach new audiences, I’d love to discuss this further. Please let me know if you’re available for a quick chat. Feel free to check us out in the meantime:
