The concept is actually very interesting and could be vey well suitable for a small mobile game. Collision detection, however, could be improved - trees seem to destroy the ball when visually they're now even closely touched.

I'd be glad to see this game polished and released as a small title - it has a great potential.

Nice entry. Personally I felt the snowball grew too slowly, making it grow faster would give more of an arcade feel I think. I also found it started getting "jerky" the further I got (maybe it was just lag I don't know). Overall cool concept. With some polish would make a nice little game.

Fun little game...
Ran into trees that weren't touching me, I assume they have rectangle hitboxes...

Good game, but something really needs to be done about those hit boxes, because they are too big for the images.

Nice, but I've got low framerates in this games
Kind of reminded me old Skifree game on windows :)

+ Nice music.
+ Good idea for a game.

- When you die and press "P" the score freaks out.
- Collision could have been better.
- Title screen freaks out after death.
- Small screen.

"Misc" is a pretty vague term. It's not clear what it applies to at first. It was fun and used both themes well. I liked how it progressed. Later on the performance really took a dive which hindered playability quite a bit. Nice music!

Nice concept, but it wasn't really playable for me.

The idea is good and it fits both themes. However, we think the collisions could be better. The audio, also, doesn't match it very well. We think it would be really fun if faster, but good entry anyways!!

No source code? :\

The heaps of snow look a bit too similar to the ground so it's kinda hard to see. Game was also very laggy for me so it wasn't easy to play.

Nice game. Cool idea and pretty adictive. There are some things that can be improve, like the collisions, but it's fun game overall. Good job!!

Simple and fun. Learned far too late that tress aren't misc :(

Interesting concept and setting, you should try to polish it a bit more and publish it as a mobile game, that might be fun.
