Snowman Lander! After long struggle snowmen finally learned how to fly! But they still need operator who will be controlling them from the Control Center!
Pick up a PC screen and enjoy the tour to the history of Snowmen landings!
Interesting difficulty screen. Kind of wish the ASCII level was actually gridlocked instead of just a reskin, though. The snowflakes blocking landing areas seems to ramp up the difficulty very quickly, as moving left and right is monstrously difficult, so you're left just waiting for a good spawn.
Nice entry! Was quite fun and took some time to win each "level". The hard ASCII level felt a tad too hard at times, I had to use snowman corpses to actually win. Nice graphics and generally a cool idea! Merry Christmas!
@leondryaso: Yep, unfortunately I couldn't use whole 48h for this, so there really wasn't time to make and polish some things which were planned (like sounds, better menu, real story mode).. And yes, your assumption is correct -- I'm Czech ;-)
I'm a big lunar lander fan, and this was a fun little lander game with character. I loved the random level generation, but it did tend to give me a freebie every once in a while, where the terrain directly below a snowman was flat(ish). Didn't detract from the enjoyment though.
Nice to see another LibGdx entry, more code to look at :)
The controls are a little bit weird. While W fires the bottom thruster and S the top thruster (opposite directions), A fires left and D fires right (same directions). It's still fun to play, good job!
An old concept, but doing it in different graphical treatments was a neat way to tie in the theme! I probably would have dialed back the force of the side thrusters a little, but it did add a lot of challenge. Good work!

I like a lot the graphics, very beautiful.
Love the idea of changing the level.
Normally i don't like lander games, but your one was funny to play. Well done!
