thumbnail for a video where i talk about how much i like the christmas update, im not finishing the thumbnail or thr video i just dont feel like it honestly

remains of the script under cut

having an event currency is par for the course, im not surprised that there is one. its a good and simple way of putting everyone on an even playing field.

originally ornaments picked up from the ground gave only 3 ornaments, getting seen by twisteds and finishing a machine gave 1. but like a day after the upsate released, they changed it so that picking up ornaments and extracting machines gave 5 ornaments. this is straight up objectively good, it respects the players time and encourages playing the game normally instead of distracting as a 2 stealth toon to get the most ornaments in the shortest amount of time!

character designs are still pretty mid i think, and by mid, i mean they dont make my brain go “ooooo cool, i want that!!” or “oooo funky”. but honestly, im starting to think that thats just my preferences in character designs. at least theyre not just humans. this batch of characters definitely has the most diverse body types so far tho and i love it!! finally, they dont all look so similar! whats more important tho is that which character theyre supposed to be is still pretty clear whenever u see them. im biased tho cuz i care about the gameplay way more than the characters so ye

3 of the 4 toons having similar abilities as the non-event toons is good actually. cuz i dont feel pressured to grind for them and can just focus on getting the main character instead. this lets the devs save the unique ideas for non-event toons too!!

and even if they have similar abilities, the different stats and numbers give them a different enough playstyle that they can stand on their own.

and also, like, imagine if these toons actually had unique abilities. players who couldnt get them would literally be locked out of an entire playstyle just cuz they werent in the right place at the right time, and that SUCKS ASS!!!!

rudie is the common of the christmas event, with 3 stars in all his stats. his ability is flutter’s dash, except with almost half the cooldown and distance. and he glows red in the dark, but in more of a flashlight way

i like that the event has a common cuz it rlly helps the new players. new players get a cheap and easy to get event toon, but old players have more toons to play with too! win win!

in my opinion, he is the best toon in the entire event. i just rlly like spamming his ability, especially when it gets down to 8 seconds. hes genuinely more fun for me than flutter because of how short his cooldown is. i hate his red light tho, not cuz its ugly, but cuz it hurts my eyes whenever i looknat the screen for too long.

his design is just rudolph the red-nosed reindeer with candy cane antlers, nothing special, but hes cute. i like how hes chubbier than normal, makes him feel more friend-shaped. his design feels like theres a strange lack of bells tho, idk y, maybe i just like bells.

all of his animations are just looeys animations, except whenever he walks or runs, he shifts from left to right a little because of his deer legs

he has two skins: the vintage, and blue bell. the vintage skin is my favorite, it just works well with his color palette, the light actually makes me go blind tho so that sucks but its worth it. blue bell gives him a color scheme similar to a real reindeer, but with a blue nose and blue bracelets with white bells on them. i really like the blue color of his light, its nice to look at! i dont like how saturated the main colors of his color scheme are tho, cuz it hurts my eyes a little, just a little.

his trinket is festive lights. it highlights ornaments near u every 10 seconds. yea idk wat i expected, but it makes sense. again, useful for new and old players, especially new players cuz they most likely dont have anything to fill their trinket slots with.

ginger is one of the two rare characters. her stats look like shes made for people who want to play as cosmo, but cant hit his skill check, and are willing to trade some survivability for more stars in the skill check stat.

her ability is a side-grade of cosmos, with a much bigger range in exchange for a bigger cooldown.

i like her design, the white is a nice contrast to the red so the whole thing isnt just one color. the little details, like a few bits of red to add some detail to her hair. her head being flat. her hair itself being a slab of icing that looks like it was glued on to the back of her head, with her bangs looking like it was piped on using a round tip, really making her look like a gingerbread woman. very nice, the rest of her body isnt flat tho and has regular toon anatomy, so its like they baked her head in the oven then glued it onto a regular body, but its fine! it doesnt even matter really, a bodys a body, and no ones gonna notice anyways unless they pay attention to the design or someone.. tells... them....... oops.

shes also one of the few toons that immediately made me think she had a very “dandys worldish” design so far. like, u can very clearly tell that its from a specific piece of media, even if u havent heard of the game before. and im pretty sure its because of that giant bite taken out of her head. the reason to why i think that is because its a very important detail of her design that really makes her stand out.

her idle animation has her leaning to her left, its another nice little detail that acknowledges the weight she wouldnt be able to support cuz of that massive bite in her head

she has two skins: the vintage, and minty pine. i dont have anything to say about the vintage skin. the minty pine one tho, i really like it. its simple but nice, idk wat else to say

her trinket is peppermint icing. it gives you 30 stamina every time you use your active ability. its rlly fun to use on toons with short ability cooldowns like rudie and toodles, and even when playing as gigi and using the bone trinket

coal is the second rare character. she has flutters stats and pebbles old ability, except it highlights every item for everyone instead of just items near u for only u.

i love her design, shes just a really big rock (cont)

im gonna be honest with u, i think this ability is pretty useless

bobette fits the christmas theme rlly well, especially her abilities, but shes actually straight up the worst main gameplay-wise

her active ability and the range of her passive suck tho imo

u have to basically stand riight next to her to even get the passive effects

her active is a significantly worse smoke bomb, like legit usijg connie would be waaay better. an idea for a better active ability that fits in with the christmas theme could be gigis ability except the item is a present on the ground that anyone except bobette can pick up, maybe limit the item rarity to rare and above too, shes a main after all

i like the new map! it feels so open and i like that, of course theres still cramped spots but im fine with that, i like that too, fun map to play in! very much unlike shellys map, which has multiple dead ends that i wanna stay as far away from as possible. it also looks rlly nice, it doesnt hurt my eyes and nothing rlly feels out of place, its just nice

Wind deers :] weird mimic-esque animals that look like wind turbines. they settle down in one spot and open their face panels during the day to absorb solar energy & they often camp out for weeks by windmill farms before moving on. People sort of just leave them alone when they show up

THESE LOOK SO COOL!! i could see these being in a story where origami that resemble real life creatures come to life
