Snowball Fight by devshawn

[raw]
made by devshawn for LD31 (COMPO)
It's a snowball fight! (all on one screen!)

Hit all of the snowmen you can before they get you. The object is to survive. WASD to move, click to shoot.

Programmed in Racket (a LISP-based language). The console that pops up when you finish is because of the way "worlds" work in the language, sorry!

Same here. Seems like it's using a local path?

Quite good, though whenever I die it opens a console with some debug info.

Nice game. Opens a console when you die, but no big deal.

The snowball physics are somewhat awkward. I like this.

I guess you though the other theme would win, huh? ^^

+1 for LISP-based language ^^

The graphics remembered me of old games I liked to play, e.g. crime fighter. This is a good thing.

I would like to hear some fitting sounds and see the snowmans drop snow that you can use to build snowballs or something like this. Would be some dark kind of funny I think^^

Oddly very satisfying obliterating snowmen. You're right our games are awesomely somewhat similar. Great to get the chance to throw snowballs at snowmen in another game, it's like going to a parallel universe!

LISP-based? Wow, that's pretty impressive! The game was surprisingly satisfying, just gotta hit all those darned snowmen :)
