Cannot download... 404s
The whole story in the title :D
Honestly, it's hard to tell what to do here :/
I have no idea what I'm doing... needs moar instructions :)
I couldn't figure out how to play it! A tutorial or at least a description would be nice.
I just get "Default Property warnings and errors:
Error: CDO Constructor: Failed to find /Paper2D/MaskedUnlitSpriteMaterial"
and 7 or so similar errors on startup.
Not sure how you get more energy. More instructions would probably help.
This game has an old school ps1 kinda vibe and I like it. The voice overs are really funny.
Pretty fun and unique concept! I liked the voice
Best game title so far.
i have no idea what im doing
Pretty fun. Unique use of the theme. The snowmen were hard to kill/manage sometimes. Took a bit to figure out how to move the crystals into the furnace. Best title so far. Good work!
I'll never be able to watch Frozen the same way. (No, I don't want to build a snowman, I want a crystal!)
Ahaha i like the concept of having to multitask, however i find it too hard. Overall nice entry!
It's amusing(ly futile), but the UI needs work. It was a bit laggy for me, and hence hard to mine or burn crystals - although I also heard my fan spin up, so maybe it's just unoptimized (I'm on a laptop, although it *usually* handles modern games well).
Canyou put up another mirror? I cannot download from that link for some reason
Neat idea, a little clunky though. Couldn't figure out how to replenish energy (though burning crystals would work, but that just did heat for me), so the game ended quickly unfortunately. Good use of theme, and I like that you had the courage to do voice overs (not a lot of people would do it).
Oh, shoot, you can overheat! Fun game.
I understand the game lol!
This game is a very interesting try about putting parallel work into game. Replying to the above comments about "don't know how to play", I think you simply need to try the operations covered in the instruction :D
The feel of shooting at the snowman is not that accurate, where I think you may try to improve if you working on this idea further.
Great job!
Difficult to understand at first, but reading others' comments helped. Nice entry! :)
Interesting game. It seems impossible to win, and I don't even see a counter so I'm guessing that's not really the point, but either way it's entertaining to see how far I can get. Once I got the hang of the movement it wasn't bad, though circling at high speeds with my mouse gets tiring on the wrists after a while. The phrases that the snowmen say when you kill them hint at a deeper story here, and it would be interesting to incorporate some of that to expand the gameplay in some meaningful way, but as it stands it's still an interesting game.
I kinda like the multi managing thing. As far as i can tell there's no end goal or any form of score keeping which would have been nice.
For anyone confused about an end goal:
You can win the game by mining 5000 crystals from this weird snowman planet.
There is a numerical score labeled "energy". If you cannot see it, there is probably a text rendering bug we haven't been able to reproduce yet.
Nice game! I dig the multitasking a lot, and I think the concept was fun. It would be nice to see how many crystals I've collected if at least to judge how well I did.
Also, I'm not sure if you should be able to win this game, but it doesn't feel like it. If you are, then it's practically impossible. Other than that, it was fun!
Interesting game, but it was very laggy to me, and each time I opened it it appeared a message with something like "Error: CDO constructor", althrough it let me play it. I'm using Windows 7 with a 3.20 GHz processor, 4GB of RAM and nvidia GeForce 315 graphics.
