A fun short horror game. Playtime ~5-10 minutes.

My playthrough: 

(SPOILERS BELOW)

My thoughts on the game:

  • A very polished game.
  • The movement is smooth but not too smooth, it felt nice to play.
  • The game is pretty optimized.
  • The snowman model looks great!
  • That spider thing of the snowman was very unexpected, it was really funny and creepy at the same time. I love the twist.
  • I wish the snowman was a harder obstacle. I've played many games like this one and usually what makes the enemy harder is denser fog (But I will recommend maybe a map system if that's the case) and a quicker acting enemy. For this enemy, all you need to do is just wait for a breeze, turn 360 degrees and continue as far as I'm aware, very cheese-able. Another way to make the snowman harder is to have multiple snowmen.
  • Once you've seen the enemy, if you don't move it won't react, even if you look away. (7:57)
  • What the heck was this xD. (2:36)
  • Delayed sound reaction of the snowman. (2:44)
  • Depth of Field breaks the fog. (6:10)

Overall, I enjoyed the game. Great job!

Hey Slithersy, thanks a lot for playing, I'm happy that you liked the game.
It's really nice how much effort you put into the feedback - huge thanks for that!

I just released a small update with a few changes and bugfixes (it's not worth replaying the game. The update is just to round it up!)

The snowman model is a free asset from the store. Credits will be added soon.

Original the snowman should teleport behind the player, I ain't managed to implement this mechanic (it was kinda buggy) I also thought about multiple snowmans - maybe next year in "Happy Snowman 2" ;)

7:57 The snowman has a radius in which he ain't move if you once looked at him.

2:36 It's a bug from the fog-system I'm using!

2:44 If a sound played, the snowman ain't make a sound for the next 10sec. and until he changed his position. Before this, it was way more annoying because he played a sound every time you looked at him.

Thanks again, for the nice comment :)
