prompt2: This game is different from others. It is all about snowmen. I can feel a strict limitation that I can only make different snowmen and black lines. At first, I thought it was a bit monotonous and think it would be better if I can draw some other things. The author could easily add more brushes such as colorful lines, but he/she did not do that. I think the author did this deliberately. Through this design, the snowman will become the only colored object in the game. At the same time, the color of the snowman is still random, and players cannot choose by themselves. This design pushed players to use snowmen as the only focal point of their work. Then, I found out that under this restriction, players still have enough freedom. Compared to other works which include many different tools, in this game players do not need to consider many other things, they only need to think about how to create a picture made of snowmen. It also makes this more like a game but not a tool. I want to add the function of color selection, but having this function will destroy the minimalist nature of the game. If you can choose the color of each snowman, the player can copy the same work multiple times, but if the color can only be generated randomly, the same picture is almost impossible to reappear. This makes the picture created each time unique. Uniqueness, as an important feature of artistic works, adds some romanticism to each work.
