You must've forgotten to enable public on itch.io, I am really interested in this

@lukvasando @alzelemon @tarfield @blanky Whoops, haven't checked back since Monday and y'all were right. Totally forgot to hit public. I skip one Ludum Dare and completely forget how to do anything lol!

It's a simple idea that is very well executed, great job! No, seriously, it's a fun chilled game that is extremely well scoped.

Good simple game dude. My high score : 34710

Clever idea, loved the chill background music and overall gameplay feel, good job!

Obviously a great idea for the theme, "the snowball effect", perfect :D

Love the reference to a great movie.

Cool billboard racing graphics! Reminds me of Road Rash :motorway: :motorcycle:

I had to try katamari that skier :see_no_evil:

My top score: 84695

Well done!

Cute small charming game, very fun.

Simple but effective! Reminded me of SkiFree a bit. I only wish you could keep track of how many skiers you hit... nicely done!

I liked the sprites, I've seen this type of game before in the addictinggames.com days. It was pleasant

I want to capture those damn humans!

Score of 43767~ Is it only based on distance? Calming game!

brandon-anderson 2019-10-18 04:56

@lexyvil, points go up depending on your overall speed and if you are actually able to catch some of the skiers before the trees do. The bigger your snowball, the faster you are and more points you gain!

Love the name! The pixel art 3D is almost like old school arcade 3D though it's a little too smooth. Make some specifically scaled sprites and don't scale the pixels if you want to make it even more retro.

Game's a little lacking. But it's got a nice look and feel and the sound isn't obnoxious. A fine effort.

The game is over but I'm still building snow power! :rofl:

I really like this game. It's a simplistic rolling loop with ranodmly generated objects, but fun.

I did notice the skiers further down the hill (or higher up, imagination :wink: ) and it was hilarious watching them fall. I usually rolled over them when large, but was spooked when I, a small ball with low snow power, insta died the next time I crossed paths with a skier :sweat_smile:

Catchy music, and cool graphics, :sunglasses: :sunny: :eyes:

Edit:

Full snow power and a score of 200k+ and still rising :joy:

Simple mechanics but a very nice and fun game. Good job!

Remember that pikachu skateboarding game from like, 2001? This is that. <3 Very silly and fun.
