great game! especially the sound effects, love those! would definitely play it again to get higher scores next time.
Really great game and nice use of the theme. It gets really hard to control all those snowmen after a while, which makes it really fun! Nice sfx and music, good job.
Man I'm gonna hate trees after today, either way great execution! A bit broken on the leaderboards but otherwise good all around, didn't think of making a seasonal game for this winter period.
Haha, thank you so much for playing! The issue with the leaderboards has just been patched :)
Happy holidays! <3
online leaderboards have a few interesting bugs:
You can overwrite your higher score with a lower one if you get two
the names don't accurately track to who got the score.
I got 111 and the score showed up on the leaderboard but under someone else's name and later when i got an 83 high score, the 111 score was overwritten it seemed.
Otherwise fun game concept and execution. I like the visual effect of the flashing shield and the paralax effect of the snomen getting tiny when you send them forward!
edit: 107 is as high as i could get to that sweet sweet 111 from before. RIP
Thank you SO MUCH for telling me that!!! I had no idea about those issues and I've just fixed them :)
The names were swapped around when loading the leaderboard and unfortunately I didn't notice the database was set to keep only the most recent score from a user, not the highest.
Thanks for playing! Was your display name "Dragon's Fury 107"?
of course! Yeah, saved the name alongside the score to play test and potentially help you find the bug. Do you happen to know where you got the sound asset of picking up the snowballs?
We've updated your score ;)
I like the crunchy feel of getting the shields and preventing death for a bit, very important to keep alive. However, I didn't see much of a purpose for cloning the snowmen apart from making the game tougher? I'm assuming they add more score. Other than that, solid little game, enjoyed it quite it bit c;
Thank you so much for leaving a comment!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it :D
Our idea with the snowmen was that you are the snowman hoard rather than an individual snowman. You don't lose until they all die so collecting them give you more chances to hit things :3
I love the visual queues in the gameplay. Especially the flashing barrier before it goes away. Very clever with the scene wipes!
Thank you so much!
I'm glad you enjoyed it :D
Very fun ! It's a good game !
Thank you so much!!
Awesome design! I love the snowman theme endless runner!
Thanks so much for playing!! :D
I enjoyed the game.
Kept me wanting to play again every time I lost all my clones to one tree.
Good job!
Didn't you see the tree warning signs? Smh my head.
Thank you so much for playing!! :D
I actually enjoyed playing this game. at times I felt like I was 100% finished but then I manage to gain a handfull of snowman brethren and then moments later - loose them all in one foul swoop. its a tense experience to say the least, but that's what makes it enjoyable. the controls could be more tight but i suppose the snowmen are slippery. its a great game to try and beat your high scores so i think its perfect for this jam. the artstyle looks a bit ametur but hey, not everyone is an artist so i cant be too harsh in that category. overall its a great game and its fun to play so well done!
Thank you for the comment and thanks so much for playing!! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
really nice game i like the idea and gameplay you have created
Thank you so much Benji!
