From under the snow by madflame991
After the great war the few survivors retreated underground. Today however you pick something on the radio, other than eternal silence.
Pick up your gear and head out. Remember to pack equipment and don't forget the batteries!
Hints:
+ Some items need to be powered by batteries
+ You power the drill and the radx by placing them on the floor (not snow - hey, your hands are freezing!) and using a battery on them
+ Powered radx removes radiation and the drill is useful to remove what a pickaxe can't

Only issue I had was that I couldn't find anywhere that described what each item did.
I wasn't able to find any water bottles, so I thought I still had to do something to give it to Mr. White... But since I had already dug my way around the door, I had actually reached the end...
Nice game. :)
Nice to see that I think..
Also a nice touch with the open source-like engine!
It would be nice to have description and info about the thing inside your inventory.
-Working with the drill and the radx is quite cumbersome, I feel like it should just use up a battery from the inventory, rather than having to refill it after every use.
-The radiated snow is hardly distinguishable from the normal snow, which got me killed a lot of times until I realized that there are those two snow types.
-I feel like the old man shouldn't give you a key to a door you can dig around, but rather give you the drill, so that you can't reach the end without helping the old man.
-Why do bugs always damage you when you kill them? Seems a bit unintuitive and restricts you to only killing two bugs. (Except if there is a way to heal yourself, which I didn't find)
Overall I really liked it, and would definitely play a more polished version. Good job!
@ActionRemix: the game doesn't seem to work in firefox, try using chrome
