Very very cool animations. I love the overall visual style as much as I would hate being chased by a zombie-snowman :)
I was hoping for an ending after a while. Good job :)

Simple game with nice simple 3D graphics. Nothing much new to see here, and the enemies and mechanics are a bit too stale and basic. At least one more enemy type would have made the levels much more dynamic.

Snowman zombies, hahaha loved the animations.

I loved the graphics, fun game too. Would be better if you could somehow lose.

The look is fantastic and very fun game. The shot could be controlled by the mouse.

great animation. love the trails of slime. not quite sure what the powerups were for. needs health.

Surprisingly addictive, yet I don't quite understand the goal? it was an enjoyable game and happily played it for 10 minutes but couldn't understand the goal, some times all of them blew up at once and I didn't know why. If you make the game more challenging and add in being able to die, or if there was one making it a bit easier to die you'll have a fantastic game! Loved the audio, you really captured the sound of the snow!

It's not a very innovative concept, but the high level of polish made it pleasant to play.

I like it, the animations were polished and worked well. Seems like you were bent on Snowman theme! I liked the idea of enemies picking up your presents! Arena could have been bigger and the action a bit more frantic to replicate that Robotron feel.

These enemies are really creepy! Can you actually lose in this game? I seem to be invulnerable. I made a similar game too!

Hi there. Looks really nice, played for a while. Nice graphics, nice movement, great treatment of powerups. Sounds good, only (very small) quibble is maybe vary the sound of Fire/Snowball slightly/randomise pitch a bit or something ?, just became a constant drone after a while. Good job!

Visual style is wonderful, although the gameplay is pretty basic.

Could not stop playing and nice graphics, really love the zombie characters and that everything takes place in a snowglobe. Goodjob, really one of my faved compo games!

I really liked it! Though you need to be able to lose and it would have been much better if i could use the mouse to attack!

Great animations and nice and simple 3D graphics! I really like how the snowmen pop up from the snow. Really good use of particles to make it feel like you're in a snow globe ( I assumed that's what it is. ) The controls worked really well and it was really fun to play, although I didn't see any indicator of how many presents I had collected, which would have helped with letting me know how well I was doing. Great job!

Very good concept. I thought you could break the gift at the end

The crawling snowmen are disturbing

pulsartronic 2014-12-14 23:11

I appreciate the unbeateable aka ChuckNorris snowman killing an amount of zombie snowmen... Love it. Simple but working and addictive!! :D

bogdan-tana 2014-12-14 23:13

The crawling zombie snowmen are a blast :D GG

Cool idea, I played til my fingers hurt from shooting. I think with the kiting a mass of them, you could have really taken it to another level with a second kind of enemy that had a different pattern.

Sweet graphics!
