Today's download for Windows is Pinch ol' Santa 2 from SwordLord. As an added bonus, the most recent version also runs on OS X and many flavors of Linux and BSD. the premise is pretty simple. Santa is running across the rooftops jumping down chimneys and delivering presents. If you pinch him, he'll jump up in surprise and drop a present that you can pick up and keep for yourself. Not the most sophisticated game in the world, but a great little time-waster that doesn't require much commitment.

Something to keep in mind: you move your pinching hand with the mouse/trackpad, so if you want to catch Santa, You may want to bump up your mouse tracking speed before you start.
