Hi.

Many years ago, maybe more than 5 years ago, I did find a demo/shareware of a really coool, goodlooking 3d CHRISTMAS game.
* I dont remember its name, but it wasnt any easy name to remember, in fact, I think the name of the game was the maincharacter's name.
* The main thing I remember was the really cool christmas inspired music!
* The maincharacter was a Cat I think or a Lynx, but Im not 100% sure.
* The view was from the side, and you where controlling a "modernish" santa sleigh with jetengines and weapons. You shooted down enemies and picked up presents, which gave you points and better weapons, I think. All had a christmas theme.
* There where shops where you can trade the points you collected and buy weapons and stuff, and refuel.
* The story was something about saving santa.
* In the menu you saw a cool cat, I think, or maybe a lynx. He/she had a lasergun.
* I think it was a bigger company which published the game, but I dont know which company who made it.

Please help me, I've searched the archives on internet, and I tried getting the game a few years ago after I tried the game, but couldnt find it.
If you know where I can find the demo or shareware/freeware, or where I could buy it please tell me. I could also be intressed if anyone could share it with me, but lets take that on PM or email.

Please let me know any ideas of what you think it could be, even if it doesnt fit on all criterias.

Key elements again: A christmas game, cool music, , view was from the side, hard name to remember, modern santa sleigh with weapons, a cat or a lynx as main character, save santa was the mission, there where shops, main menuscreen there where a cat or a lynx with a lasergun.

Please, that will make my life!

Nooooooo!

Your not flying in a sleigh in Jazz Jackrabbit!!! :D :cry: But its cool music there.

You view was from the side. You see a sleigh which you control up and down, forward and back. And fire.

im not saying these are the games but they could be

All aboard for santa http://www.pcgameworld.com/details.php/id/190/

save santa http://www.trumgottist.com/crowsnest/game.php?id=239

sorry about the late reply. Not many people around here would be bothered looking for games for people. These were found in a google string. Im sure one mentioned a cat.

No, sorry, its none of them. Thanks for trying.

Im hoping that anyone have played or have the game and know the name of the game.

Yes it is a sidescrolling game, like "Raptor" but from the side. The sleigh is moving all the time forward.

Unforuntately its often down (like it is right now as I'm making this post).

Another possibility is the GameHippo forum:

It was worth a try. But now I know I never will find that game. Its gone, weird because it was good. Must have been an beta or something.

Try searching for Skunny. There are lots of Skunny games around.

Skunny is a squirrel but he looks a bit like a cat/lynx/etc.
