A maze game where you play as frosty, and avoid the fire's that chase you. With it's own unique sense of humor.
Advance strategy: Hold 2 arrow keys at once preparing for the next turn in the maze, and then you'll have lil to no issues with getting stuck on the pixel perfect colisions

Should work on all 64 bit window's operating system's. Your computer will likely suggest that its a virus, but it's not. Read the comments and you'll see people who've played it before and commented. Enjoy:)
Thanks for your input:) I fixed the error, it was caused by the easter egg I added in the last hour XD, So I cloned the credit room and renamed it and added the player into that room and linked the title screen to that new room, where the original room remains linked to the end of the game(because your player is already in it, doesn't need 2, but the one from the menu bugged out due to having no player in it, so added a player in, simple bug fix:) )
ahh... unfortunately the computer I'm playing on is not allowed to have third party programs "installed". (I'm at work). Game can't run independently? I don't know much about game maker.
It's window's install only I don't have the exports(that cost $100-300 each or $700 for all) Only have professional with window's and tizen export :S I need to get the master collection :S
@cardanai Click on arrow right to file, and then a button saying something like 'Keep file'. Says it's a virus because it's only been downloaded a few times.
Actually it say's its a virus because its a exe file not registered with mircosoft(Which I've heard cost's a lot of money to register) and the fire wall blocks it for the same reason.
Alright, managed to play now with fixed version. The game's not that much, but I like the idea that you need to find shortest path as quick as possible to avoid flames. Fun game over screen as well. :P
Well the shortest path doesn't matter too much but a direct path matters, the enemy's AI homes in on the quickest way to your character, They won't head you off, unless your back tracking(even if on a different path)
congrats on your first game. please reconsider not needing an "install wizard" next time :)

Nice work ! it's quite fun to go through the maze being chased by fire,
i just had a few technical issues, the arrow keys seemed to stop responding at random some times, and the game over screen seems to make the game crash for some reason :(
otherwise its a good game, the music is good too ^^
@nuno I'm not sure that's posible other than embeding HMTL5 which I do not have the module for ATM, and then you'd have a loading screen. @nokusu Thanks:) No clue whats wrong with the arrow's. I have a feeling I know whats wrong with the game over that causes it to crash. I think its a set of codes I need but not in that room and I deleted it from the game over room but the game maker itself has a glitch there to where even though I deleted it out of there its still there(That code makes you go to the next room, which there is no more rooms hence crash)
@Tanner Thanks I worked hard on the graphics:) Chibi did the music, and the lagging issue might be your computer? or maybe because of too many particles(the snowflakes that fall down)
Very solid game, imo! A decent difficulty and much fun to play. The only thing I would change is that there is no "safe zone" at the start of the second level.
Note: Thanks for the info on our game! I completely disabled FSAA for the Windows version now, so it should run now. If you don't mind, please give it another try: http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-31/?action=preview&uid=28802 If it still does not work, could you leave me a link to a screenshot of the error in my comments? Thanks in advance! :)
@NPException Thank's, Honestly I had no idea that it'd turn out half as good as it did. My goal honestly was just "completing a game, no matter how crappy it was" Very happy that it didn't end up being crappy.
I want to play it but it requires administrator privileges, which is simply never going to happen. I've played a number of games made with Game Maker before, perhaps there is way to export your game as a self-contained executable instead of an installer? I thought that this was available in the free version.
Really good for a first game/LD submission. The art was consistent and the palette was very cute and Christmasy.
It was quite difficult moving around corners and avoiding the flames. They moved faster than I could control my snowman, and I found myself melting very quickly, and getting Game Over screens, which then crashed with a Fatal Error bug. :( So that was unfortunate.
@lase Thanks a lot :) Yeah was going to do more level's but time was too short because the lv's seen like they be easy to make till you realized that there's 40+ wall tiles at all are dependant on placement based on the direction they are facing, and creating a good maze at the same time(Hence why those 2 maze lvs are sort of punishing)
@remicy Glad you enjoyed it. I'm debating continued development of this game or moving onto another at the moment so please show your support on our facebook page, and youtube channel if you want to see more:) if demand is high enough we'll continue development, if not we'll make another game that will hopefully exceed your expectations:)
@Teamquadratic Yeah I wanted a decent difficultly curve, but once your experienced at it you can go through flawlessly through both maze's. The maze's themself's were rushed on the design's and they suffer for that:(
It seems a bit punishing if you do not choose the right path on the first turn. I like the humour and the playfulness.
