DESCRIPTION: Frosty is a swag ninja snowman living in a desertic zone of Antarctica. As we know with great powers comes great responsibility, and your responsibility is "SURVIVE".
Lyric of the song:
You better watch out You better not cry Spikes and canon are evil and will make you die.
Frosty ninja is so swag x2
He's jumping so high left and right trying to save is dangerous life
Frosty ninja is so swag x2
He die when you're AFK He run when you're awake He knows if you've been pro or noob Sooo be PRO for goodness sake!
Ooo! You better watch out! You better not cry. Better not poop, I'm telling you why.
Wall jumping is your friend. Although now I'm going to have that song stuck in my head for the rest of the day. Bright and colourful with a snowman ninja. What's not to like! I managed 406.
But did you opt out of ratings, because I don't see any.
the control is smooth but it feels like there is some inconsistency in your jump height. I couldn't reach the crates, so i thought they were going to drop. when they didn't drop i found you could wall jump, but then I could also just jump high enough sometimes? I guess it's a doubling velocity thing with the air jump. I would reconsider how you implemented that. maybe use a maximum or a container of distance to give instead of just a velocity or acceleration boost. Good job!
Nice entry! Kudos on the song and the sound design. Although I'm not entirely sure about how the wall-riding works, I managed to understand the basic game mechanics. Although I suck at it, I had fun with it. I wish I could rate it, but for some reason, the site won't let me!
For some reasons, I can't rate your game. There is no stars! The game was fun. I liked audio, though there is nothing but voice. Obstacles shouldn't appear all of sudden. I advice you to make spikes spawn outside the screen, they can accidentally spawn inside of you. Same with icicles, you should add some kind of "Icicle incoming!" warning, because if you are high and an icicle spawns, you get hit before you realize what's going on. Also, I suggest to remove fading of spikes and make them despawn when they leave the screen. Almost disappeared spikes are almost impossible to see, but they do the same amount of damage. I had a good impression of this game. It would've been great with more polishing though.

The music is great, I like it :) The movement is a bit random, I suppose you can say it's "hard to master", but a little less slippery would be good (the controls not the floor).
The way you fall apart is great.
The "wall jump" is a bit odd, maybe put something there to look like you're actually wall jumping.
Great and weird sounds :P After playing normally two or three times, I tried jumping a lot and got out of the game area. Points kept going up, but nothing could kill me. Almost get to the top ranking by glithing :D
Just like a ninja! Right? Or the dissappearing thing at least...
It's pretty good, but you could make it so the spikes don't spawn at the exact position of your player because you can lose a lot of health that way and that's really annoying.
Between the music, sound effects, and smooth control, this is the best LD31 game I've seen yet. Full marks! I like how you combined the "one screen" and "snowman" themes too. :D
Well, it is different for sure. I see why they say it reminds them of worms in the comments, as it indeed does. The jumping doesn't feel smooth to me, but maybe it is just my lack of practice.
LOL, the audio is so funny and strange. Thank you for including the lyrics. I love the flip on the snowman to change directions too. Great gameplay, a little on the hard side (which IMO is a good thing). Definitely fun and strange in the best way possible.
Wow, great game! Best one I've played so far. You totally start to feel like a ninja after a while. One question though, are those high-scores real, or just pre-programmed?
It was pretty fun, I gotta say. The song was pretty funny in my opinion. I wasn't anything too innovative or anything; the game just followed the theme. It was pretty fun (and humorous) overall.
Graphics and Audio are good, game play is good. Think this type of game could of suited a better theme that the use of snow and a snow man. Good Work on all of it!
The song is pretty cool and unique, and I had some fun playing for a while. I do think gameplay is a little lacking and i reached a score of 300-odd before becoming a bit bored. Good entry though!
I'm proud many of you really love this game,and i'm sorry to hear that someone thinks the controls are rough, but in my opinion you just don't know HOW TO PLAY watch the video tutorial AND YOU WILL BE BETTER
Game is interesting, fits very well with the theme of the comp.The controls feel a bit sluggish. The music was funny but would have liked some instrumental to it. Overall it was interesting
That was... an experience! The wall jump is a little weird, and the snowballs are a little rare but apart from that I had fun playing! I love the polish you put into all the movement and UI text as well! :)
I think the only issue I had was with the jumping, though that may simply be my sheer lack of ability. Great job with the power-ups, the voice over and leader boards! There are obviously people who are MUCH better at this game than I am. :)
Good game. The controls however are not practical... we only have two hand, the double jump should have been mapped on the up arrow (press a second time to double jump). Good job :)
Hi there. Great singing and song. Game itself wasn't very generous, quite harsh.. died easily. Nice graphics and sounds. Nice gradual death, losing parts... Good job!
Funny and cute game! I Included it in part 6 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/Sw1gBeS2zkc
Was really cool that Frosty Ninja's body would break apart as he was damaged. I felt some of the enemies that damage you should of been more clearly shown, the tree's sort of blended into the background due to being nearly the same value in shade.
The song could of maybe used a jingle bell to add a bit more to it and keep the beat.
Like everyone says, pretty hilarious song! Gameplay didn't seem much at first but I got really into it. Nice use of wall jumping and double jumping. Fun stuff!
I found it entertaining! It was nice that it was more of a complete game than a playable demo. If you want to continue working on the game I'd recommend working on the USPs, all in all.. well done :)
Fun game! wall riding is pretty fun, and the themesong is really... unique^^ must say the sounds of the snowman itself really annoyed me after a short while.
I loved the secondary feedback on all the animations, it made it feel really good to move even if the controls were tricky to get a handle on. I think having either the song playing OR the character VO would have been fine, but having them both going at once was rough because they kept stomping one another and it just sounded noisy so I couldn't appreciate the humor as much. Took me awhile to realize that the double jump is more than just double :P Nice touch with the shedding of snowman parts to represent health. Good work for the compo!

Only issue I had with it is that I wall rode up the right of the screen, and jumped out of the game!
You can wall jump to stay safe. I even succeed to exit from the scene :)
But did you opt out of ratings, because I don't see any.
but I can't rate it for some reason.. the radio boxes for the score aren't there :( will come back later and see if it works.
Although I suck at it, I had fun with it. I wish I could rate it, but for some reason, the site won't let me!
For some reason i can't vote but it is really good game.

Aren't the voices from Worms? :)
Wait, why can't i rate this at all??
Just like a ninja! Right? Or the dissappearing thing at least...
Mmm I can't rate you, I don't know why :(
One of the best game!

peace.
Give mine a try, http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-31/?action=preview&uid=44154
ps the scores are real ;)
Nice game :D
Really fun, but a bit hard to control. It seems sometimes you jump really high for some reason.

Thumbs up for the song xD
Good job!
And damn, YOUR song is half of the fun of this game :) Bonus point !
+ animation and gameplay
- voice of snowman
The nude snowman let me smile! Well done!
The controls were a bit odd at first, but I kinda got the hang of them after a go or two.
But great game, its hilarious.

Good job :)
The movement on the snowman felt nice, but was a bit weird with the double jumping/wall jump. Keep it up!
The song could of maybe used a jingle bell to add a bit more to it and keep the beat.
Kind of meh.
The controls were excellent too. Well done entry.
