Good game! I believe that some kind of score or time to know how much better (or worse) was each try would made the game even better! Congrats! :)
I liked the way to play and the graphics in the game , the game really coolll !!!!
Fun game. The art style and animation reminds me of the old flash days. I found the controls a little clunky since fire is mapped to the mouse but aiming isn't, but it felt solid using the keyboard to fire
Nice fun game! Very cute and funny opening sequence!
I remember seeing your posts on Discord so it was great to be able to play the final version here!
Unfortunately, I could never quite get used to the controls since I kept wanting the snowman to track where my cursor is at but it would just keep shooting at where it is facing versus where my cursor was.
Holy moly, this game was just full-fledged panic LOL. I loved the idea of putting a snowman in hell. Hilarious animation at the beginning too.
Lol I love that expression! Very creative idea and fun to play. I like my little snowman footprints. I didn't make it to the end though. Am I just trying to survive as long as possible? The platforms were a really nice touch, I couldn't stay in one spot too long. Cute artwork too! Great job on the submission!
Excellent intro cinematic! Also love the inspiration from a turn of phrase, really cool!
I did struggle a bit to know exactly what I was doing, but still had lots of fun.
Well done!
The method you did your maps with was so interesting! I really liked that. Pretty fun little shooter. I realize probably this was intentional, but somehow the delay between shots made it hard for me to time things correctly - maybe it could be turned down a little bit (sped up). Overall, pretty fun!
Cool intro! I also really like the fact that the whole world is procedurally generated. Really adds to the hectic atmosphere.
I really like those visuals (especially the intro XD), and the crumbling ground works well ^^
Damages lack a bit of feedback, also I'm a bit frustrated to not be able to aim with the mouse, but that's just me ^^
Intro animation was funny. Also plus points for making a game based on a pun.
I liked that you can see the created snowmen slowly melt away into a puddle but maybe they could have thrown a few snowballs before they melted to help you out. Y'know, go out in a freeze of glory...
Nice game, but I am rubbish at games like this when there is no way to regain health. Snowball's chance indeed...
Very nice graphics. Would have been nice to be able to see a bit more of the map to get a clearer idea of where there are hazards and also where there is safe ground to move to.
Great game. I would have loved to see a possible win condition, but lots of great games always end in defeat.
Loved the intro animation.
I personally prefer twin-stick or mouse aim, but once I got used to the shoot-where-you-move mechanic it worked ok.
Crumbling ground was awesome, kept me on my toes/Snowball?? really fun entry with a great intro. I enjoyed attempting to convert all of hells demons into snowmen! The health bar on the left I genuinely didn't notice until I was almost dead - not sure why but yeah visibility might be a bit low on it and aiming with WASD was a bit frustrating at times!
Great job!!
