neotokeo2001 #1 Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) SANTAS HELPER An Elf gone bad... SANTA NEEDS YOUR HELP!!! Well it finally happened. After centuries of slaving away making gifts for everyone around the world, Oswald The Elf has snapped! It was the constant pounding of those little hammers that did it. That plus, suffering from "low elf esteem" and having to wear that ridiculous little costume. Imagine having to listen to Christmas music 24/7 over bad speakers. And it's always the little people that do all the work and the big guy in the suit gets all the credit. And this big guy always seems to know when they are sleeping, when they're awake, even when they've been good or bad, for goodness sake! Oswald has lost it BIG TIME and he is set on ruining Christmas for all the Good Boys and Girls. He is trashing the workshop and breaking all the treats and toys. Grab some trays and keep the Christmas Items from crashing to the floor and being destroyed. It's up to you to SAVE CHRISTMAS. SANTAS HELPER is a Christmas version of KABOOM! by Activision. Thanks to some slick reprogramming by DEBRO from Atariage this new version has a little something extra! SANTAS HELPER has 4 different items that alternate between the levels. Instead of BOMBS over and over again you now have a little variety. Items: Christmas Gifts Christmas Trees Candy Canes Rudolph Dolls Edited December 12, 2005 by neotokeo2001 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adams_ale #2 Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) Sweet!! Hopefully I catch this in time. Looks great! edit: by the way I like the green border better. Edited November 30, 2005 by adams_ale Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chickybaby #3 Posted November 30, 2005 Wow, Very cool! Looks really neat and I like the green border too. It really makes the red around the wording, presents, on the elf costume and the red on the Santa hat stand out more. ps - Although I do have to say as 2 player it would be fun to play the elf dropping all the Christmas stuff and have the second player have to scramble to try to save everything.

Albert #5 Posted November 30, 2005 ...is this for real?...I'm not up to speed on the Christmas Carts...man, I need this game!!! How do we get one? 973995[/snapback] This cart is not related to the AtariAge "Holiday Carts" we have distributed in 2003, 2004, and soon, this year as well (you can read more about this year's cart here.) This is an independent effort by Neotokeo, and I'm sure he'll announce details soon on how it can be obtained. ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
z28in82 #6 Posted November 30, 2005 For what it is worth, it looks nice and I'm sure we'll grab on to add to the collection. And count me as a vote for RED Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
holygrailvideogames.com #7 Posted November 30, 2005 I would like to buy a red version. Please put me down for one and let me know how much and where to send the money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feralstorm #9 Posted November 30, 2005 I had a game for my Palm Pilot with a very close approximation of that, only that one had you catching gifts dropped by a big Santa head on a wheeled platform. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joeybastard #13 Posted November 30, 2005 It does look nice but isn't Activision going to get involved since this appears to be a hacked Kaboom? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FireTiger #16 Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) I think I want one of these (GREEN) too. Edited November 30, 2005 by FireTiger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yuppicide #17 Posted November 30, 2005 Green does look much better. Red hurts my eyes. I think it's the green text color.. should be more like the green on the other one.. darker green. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These cartridges are being offered as a one-shot deal(Hobby Release) and I actually lose money on each one I offer. This is a Fun thing and not for Profit.

neotokeo2001 #24 Posted December 13, 2005 What are we looking for this time? 981388[/snapback] There will be one nutcracker in the red and one in the green. If you find it you get a free game from the Atariage Store. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neotokeo2001 #25 Posted December 17, 2005 Just to let everyone know, I didn't get a chance to ship the games until Wednesday. They should start arriving today. If you find a Santa Claus Nutcracker in the package then post that you found it here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
