Dragon Dreams: Christmas Nightmare
A downloadable game for Windows
BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Keep in mind, you may need to set aside an hour or so to play through this, as it only saves your progress upon completing a game. Though it will take less time to do just the bare minimum required to win.
Now, on with the introduction!
The holiday season is here once again, and all prepare for a time of joy and peace.
However, just as night is approaching, creatures have snatched up all of the gifts intended for the land's inhabitants!
After your taste of adventure earlier just this year, you were looking forward to enjoying a relaxing holiday... But now, you are again thrust into an unexpected adventure on short notice.
So gather your things, hero, and save Christmas!
Explore the land as best you can with the abilities you have, defeating mischievous creatures, and finding treasures to aid in your journey to recover the scattered gifts!
This is a short side game in the Dragon Dreams series, of similar game length and style to Dragon Dreams: A Taste of Adventure, which was released in August 2019. It is not required to play to understand anything in this game, but it is also a standalone experience, and freely downloadable from the same place you got this, if you're interested!
Thank you for checking out my game!
I hope you enjoy, Happy Holidays!

Apologies for the lack of rebindable controls in this game; By the time I realized this was becoming more than a quick little experiment, turning into a serious series I want to make, the fixed controls were so deeply ingrained that it became very difficult to go back and change it... (I tried. It was a mess.)
You may need a program to manually remap keys, or for controller support, something like JoyToKey, or Xpadder.
But here are the main controls, followed by less important ones:
Movement - Arrow Keys
Dash (wth modifier) - Shift
Attack/Confirm - X
Magic/Cancel - Z
Use Item - C
Inventory - Space Bar
Map - Tab
Warp Home - Q
Prev/Next Weapons - 1/2
Prev/Next Magic - 3/4
Prev/Next Item - A/S
Pause - Shift + P
Mute - Shift + M
Quit to Menu - F2
