Yay, I made home! Absolutely loving the art - so charming. As well as simple, but very attractive gameplay. I feel invited to replay with another snowman build. My favorite so far!

Lovely graphics and different but nice gameplay, although it was a pretty simple experience. Anyway, one of the best I have played this far.

Charming art work and gameplay. It's a shame about the lack of sound, but this is still a solid submission. Really great work, mate.

Take this fireball!!!
Cool idea :-)

WOW, that art...that is seriously cool looking! Well done on the whole, I really enjoyed this one! :)

I made it! At a second try, but it still counts ^^. great graphics.

Awesome game!

Great game! All about choosing the right powerups... I'd love to see more from you.

Great artwork! Although eveyrthing looks a little bit static. Maybe adding a little bit of swaying animations would work. Also, why would anyone want to skip a turn?

Loving the art and controls are pretty smooth.

Thank you! (For creating such a lovely game.)
Great that you were able to limit the controls to only LMB! (Consider that it would make a great mobile/tablet game too?)

AMAZING! AWESOME FUN TO PLAY! DEFINITELY CHEERED ME UP FROM MY SICKNESS!

Beat it after several attempts. The graphics are very nice.

Lovely drawings. Short and sweet game - I'm glad there was no one else after the fireball, or I would have been toast.

GameSetup.exe flagged by my antivirus as "DRep" infection when I tried to download it, then Firefox gave me an unknown error notification. I'm not sure what all that means... I've got Avast 2015.

Very fun to play! So cute as well ^.^

webravenz 2014-12-08 20:08

Nice graphic :)

Really beautiful looking game! You get 5 stars for graphics that's for sure! I found the gameplay a little dull though, but I think that's just personal taste.

ossi 2014-12-08 20:51

Wow, what a charming game! I really like the graphics and the story you created for the snowman. The battle mechanics were simple but effective and had a really neat gimmick with it. I love how I was fighting a bunch of characters that were related to heat! Very well done!

Looks and plays amazingly nice! Easy to understand and love. Thanks for letting me know about Emscripten also, seems to to a great job!

tomvert 2014-12-09 12:54

Love the aiming mechanics and the graphic style, good job !

kalaskrysset 2014-12-09 13:30

Big Fireball got me :(. Good looking art and simple yet fun gameplay :)

rnlf 2014-12-09 21:55

I made it home, I win! Looks very cute. "Hairdryer uses himself on you". Oh boy...

mrexcessive 2014-12-10 19:21

Hi there. Liked the art and implementation, but the game itself just keeps ramping up and you must lose... though maybe that is the point... Good job!

drnick 2014-12-11 04:50

I like this unique take on snowmen, and the gameplay is certainly not the usual Ludum Dare games (those mostly being of the action genre). The art is also very creative and nicely done.

flyingbear 2014-12-11 20:47

You chose an art style with a lot of charm! I really enjoyed the whole "cold things vs hot things" theme, and the game definitely skewed me towards the pro-cold side. Darn you, hairdryer! You could probably make the "Skip Turn" button something more useful, like perhaps a "Defend" button (and have some enemies telegraph some larger attacks). Great job on this!

This was wonderful and the mechanic was quite fun. Great job!
