Styrbjorn's New Year

Made for the Butterscotch ShenaniJam 2019.

For the theme, we did choose "Cursemas Eve".

Styrbjorn wakes up at christmas morning, realizing that the New Year's promise did not go according to plan. He eats his dinner with family and friends and before he knows it is New Year's eve again. When the fireworks start Styrbjorn has once again made the promise to eat healthier and do more exercising. There is just one problem - as soon as he starts running he notices that food is everywhere to be found! Days with pizza, weeks with ice cream, and months with bags of chips fly past in what seems to be moments. Help Styrbjorn break his promise, as is his tradition!
