Deep Freeze

Deep Freeze is a platform based shooter flash game that was developed and published by Miniclip on December 18, 2006.
Although Flash was discontinued on January 12 2021, deep freeze is still playable through BlueMaxima’s Flashpoint.
=== Information ===
Deep freeze is a Christmas themed platform shooter game in which the player controls a Santa character and must make their way through a series of levels and bosses by defeating enemies that have various abilities and get progressively harder as the game goes on.
=== Gameplay ===
There are a total of 20 levels in deep freeze, each of which is a static environment, meaning that the player does not walk along the levels but instead must clear out all of the enemies on screen. A lot of the levels feature a decent amount of verticality and the player can easily navigate to the top and bottom of each level by jumping and dropping from platform to platform.
As previously stated, to complete a level, the player must clear out all of the enemies on screen and this is done in a relatively simple fashion. The playable Santa character is armed with a pistol that shoots ice. Upon shooting an enemy with a single shot, their feet will be frozen and then can no longer move but will attempt to free themselves. Multiple shots will freeze more parts of an enemy until they are completely frozen into a giant ice ball. This ice ball can be kicked by the player and it will roll around the level until it has hit enough walls to crack and explode, removing the enemy from the level.
These rolling ice balls can also instantly kill other enemies on the screen, which is especially helpful on levels with large amounts of enemies. Though disposing of common enemies may be simple, that’s not to say the rest of the game is. The player’s health is denoted by 10 hearts at the top of the screen. One hit from any enemy will remove a heart and hearts can only be replenished by picking up health drops, which are rare. Multiple of them will often drop when a boss is killed but on regular levels, they are unlikely to drop from common enemies.
=== Bosses ===
Every fifth level in the game will feature a boss; a larger enemy with powerful attacks that are often difficult to dodge and can only be killed by rolling frozen common enemies into them multiple times, causing the frozen enemies to explode. Upon killing a boss, it will drop a large amount of loot and the player will complete the level. If the player enters a boss level with low health,
=== Power Ups & Points ===
Every enemy in the game will drop a piece of Christmas themed loot when killed. Most of these items will not affect the gameplay and will only rewards the player with points but sometimes enemies will drop power ups, which can range from an extra heart of health to a more powerful gun that freezes enemies faster.
The player’s total point score will be displayed to them upon completion of the game, with the option to submit it or play again.
=== Controls ===
The only controls used in deep freeze are the four arrow keys and the space bar. The left and right arrow keys are used to move horizontally, and the up and down keys are used to ascend and descend the platforms in each level. The space bar is used to shoot the frost gun.
