Snow Goat Avalanche by loxo
Finally after a long break from ludum dare, I managed to make a game again. It's simple, but better than nothing. I started late and so there is much left to do. Animations are missing and the graphics in general need additional work and variation. There would have been so much more possible if I had started right away.
I tried to incorporate both themes in my game. So you have two buttons (cursor keys left and right) to control an avalanche triggered by a snow goat. The goal is to let the avalanche grow as large as possible. The snowball grows slowly, so it isn't noticeable in a short run.

if the snowball got bigger as it went it would have tied in the other theme as well.
Still a decent simple entry.

Response to your comment: Adding multiple balls and all that other stuff was indeed in the plans but ran out of time. Let's do better next time!
+ Simple but fun
+ Goat flying animation is awesome
+ Audio and graphics are cool
Con:
- The snowball growing is way too slow
- Missed the rolling animation
- Score could go higher faster, leader board has so many zeros
Not a baahd job!
The controls feel really "jumpy"... I think because there's no acceleration between 0 and top-speed. Makes it very hard to make the kind of small adjustments that would be needed at high speeds.
Thanks for the game!
