Slay Bells is a Christmas-themed survival horror game inspired by 80's slasher movies and PS1 horror games. 

Try to make your way home on Christmas eve as you're stalked by a maniacal axe wielding Santa who is out for BLOOD. Traverse city streets, back alleys and an abandoned subway station, find a variety of useful tool and weapons and avoid Mr Claus at all costs!

You can watch the 5-part Devlog series of the making of the game on my YouTube channel here.

Fun little horror game about saving Christmas with a twist lol

Killing santa claus at the end idk why but it was funny 

I'm sorry, I don't know what to do after meeting Santa Claus. Please give me some answers.

Played this for the Christmas season. Had a pretty good time. Took a few tries  to beat him but it was still a time.

This was a fun short Christmas horror game for sure!

It was simple but thrilling and very fun. This is a game I definitely want to play during the Christmas season. I think it's a bug, but I kept being chased even before I took the crowbar.

I loved this!! I think I had a little glitch with the Santa instantly locking onto me in the first encounter, but it added a fun extra challenge LOL

It was an amazing game to experience on stream and I hope you keep creating!!

I've just finished playing it. Very fun, although I found a way to get out-of-bounds accidentally. Point of rising action was very tense (although going the wrong way in the subway station was somewhat anticlimatic). I think climax was too rushed and dissatisfactory :(

Other than that, it was pleasure to play.

(+1)

Thanks for the feedback, where did you get out of  bounds? Glad you still had fun!

(+2)

Game was a lot of fun had a great time

I didn’t even realize until now how old this game actually is. Saw it go to the top of itch and thought it looked great and it was. It must be cray to make such a good Christmas horror game that every December it jumps back up in downloads! I had a lot of fun recording the game, merry Christmas!

It's crazy how long it's been out now, it was 5 years yesterday! Glad to hear it and thanks for playing! Merry Christmas!

Really Solid Game. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, cuties.

It may have taken me a couple extra tries on Santa because of my own (lack of) skill. But the game was great, jumped a couple times.
