• Game Jam 2024 logo
• SGI logo (Tubular cube)
• N64 box + cartridge (not sure which one, it says “SG”)

• Fireplace
• Christmas lights on the wall
• Carpet

Review and conclusion

Brew Christmas has a very warm feeling all throughout. It really makes you wish you were right there in the middle of the scene playing that N64.

It does have a pretty low frame rate but then again, it is comprised of over 4000 polygons so it’s expected to run a bit slow. If that’s really that much of a bother though, you can always just stick to looking at the screenshots on this page.
