SnowBall Crash by AdamAlexander

[raw]
made by AdamAlexander for LD34 (JAM)
You play a snowball racing down a snowy mountain to the finish line. You grow larger the longer you are in contact with the ground.

Controls:
Space/Left Mouse Button - Jump
Escape - Exit

You will need to watch for obstacles too, they may become absorbed when you roll over them. Most of the time they will slow you down, but they can be used to your advantage sometimes to keep you moving. You require a minimum mass to absorb the different obstacles in the game:

Bunnies: 1 mass
Small rocks: 10 mass
Large rocks: 30 mass
Boss Bunnies: ?
You can't absorb trees

You win once you reach the finish line, and game over if your snowball stops moving.

I like the concept but I feel like it's not hard to lose momentum, I especially got stuck in the pit with trees a lot it was interesting picking up bunnies and so forth.

I also like the idea. I struggle a bit to get momentum going.
Good game and well done.

I think the features of this game should be the fastness of the snowball, the fun of collecting items and the strategy of picking what to collect. By the way, this game has a lot of potential in mobile platforms.

Its a fun game but I feel it could use more instruction in the beginning of the level. Epic bunny smashing though.

Does the escape control work? I cant restart when the ball stopped.

If I get stucked I can jump and still gain mass when hit the floor. But the idea is good.

I like that you made it suitable for Christmas. I enjoyed the game. The only problem I had was sometimes I lost my momentum.

Poor rabbits :< -- This was fun to mess around with. I love the way the trees spring and sway when you land on them. I will say the camera was a bit disorienting, maybe make it zoom and move a little less severely? Might just be me. Good job on this.
