Actually I gave it another 5 minutes, just to find out how bad it was really.
Things that are wrong.
Too many adverts (worst being santa saying Bubble box is awesome - yuck).
Infantile humour (fart jokes are funny.. but ALL the time? Grow up developer)
Incredibly slow progress - takes forever to get money - especially as you don't get more control of where santa goes. Improving the cannon adds almost nothing for example.
The missions are very repetitive with almost no skill. So far only varying numbers of "do jumps" (duh), perfect jumps (in fact I've been challenged to do 3 perfect jumps.. twice), coins, tokens, complete Xmas, distance (over all jumps). That's it. In 30 missions? Wow.

In short thie game walks an incredible tightrope of being both frustratingly hard (because you progress so so slowly) and frustratingly simple (in that you don't have to exercise any skill or thought).
This must be one of the worst games I've come across on Kongregate. It pisses me off that it will get advertising revenue because it has Santa. Very very very poor.

So many things wrong with this game. They didn't listen to what people had to say on the original rocket santa - and added adverts. Utterly pointless. 5 minutes was enough to switch off.

fun game but i think you need to increase the coin magnet/fuel more, since it appear when i replay 6 times. also, maybe getting xmas can refill the fuel at full?

Decent gameplay, seems starting fuel is still a bit low to have proper fun during a launch for time between launches to be so long, simple missions are enjoyable mostly, still the pop up adds for your own games dropped my initial 4 star thought to a 2 star, then the mission, visit sponsor site was just a kicker, stopped playing at that point leaving a 1 star

That's my high score with all upgrades on upgrades menu, but only most on the Santa menu! Can you beat it with only those upgrades?

you should be able to collect whatever you pass through when you are falling, and control left and right as you fall.

Game is a bit short. Odd that you don't need anywhere near all upgrades to make it all the way up. Sadly though, I still ground out everything there was to do in game. One question though...why can you only "exit" the level once?

achievement not done : make 2 perfect shots
me : wtf i will soon complete the game and didnt release even 1 perfect shot yet ?
2 hours later i realised that the max power is the green and the min is the red ..

How to get high altitude quickly: Use boost only when you are out of fuel, and only in very short bursts to barely keep Santa going. The altitude will still increase at a decent pace for some reason.

I don't know if its just me, but it seems that when I collect coins, it doesn't save the coins I've previously gathered, but just allows me to use the coins I've gathered in each round. It would be nice to keep previously collected coins.

This has to be the first time I have agreed with all of the top 5 comments! I just hope there are achievements for this game in the near future and a leader board in a sequel/update.

Citybloxx is more interesting than this, i mean, you can reach space and see planets in that game but this you only get to see more clouds.

The game is good but I know when I muted the sound it kept cutting in and out when I was launching I could hear it cut in and out on my speak's. But other than that awesome game!

i love the fact that this is one of the few games that requires you to have skill to beat it not just grind and grind until you have all the powerups and then just hold down the mouse button to get to the top

"Bubblebox is awesome" -Santa. No, Bubblebox is trying to hard. A mandatory achievement to click the sponsor link, giftboxes in the loading screen, pop up ads, yes/no dialog prompting to get more cash... C'mon now, guys. Plus the game gets repetitive, no change in gameplay as the game progresses, Santa quips the same dozen catchphrases to death.. and I'm still playing this - god I'm bored.
