Gameplay
Christmas Edition is divided into several distinct segments.

Segment 1 (12:AM-2:AM)
Only Santabot is present in this segment. When Santabot is inactive, do nothing. When Santabot is inactive, press space.

Segment 2 (2:AM-3:AM)
In addition to Santabot, the Jolly Little Elf is active during this segment. He constantly gets louder, and when getting too loud, will attack. Press the down arrow-key to turn the volume down. During this segment. It is recommended to repressively press the down arrow-key, occasionally stopped to calm down Santabot.

Segment 3 (3:AM-4:AM)
In addition to the aforementioned characters, the Silver Bell is now active. He will occasionally appear, activating Santabot and increasing The Jolly Little Elf's volume. When this happens, it is advised to deactivate Santabot first with the space key. Afterwards, attend to the Jolly Little Elf and repeatedly press the down key.

Segment 4 (4:AM-20 seconds before 6:AM)
In addition to the aforementioned characters, Santa's Little Helper is now active.

When the Silver Bell appears, if Santa's Little Helper is in a phase prior to phase 4, she will automatically move to the next phase.
