A mighty cry echoes from the mountain, a Yeti's roar of freedom. Vibrations echo through the range, snow groans and creaks and, squirrels hold on to their nuts as a solitary snowball makes begins its brutal descent.

Experience the freedom of mouse OR keyboard controls. Roll down the mountain and grow into an unstoppable engine of destruction, those critters wont know what hit them!

But watch out! Only the purest snow sticks together, if you dirty yourself too much your rampage will be at an end...

A, LMB – Move Left

D, RMB – Move Right

A+D, LBM+RMB – Jump

NOTE:
Fullscreen resolutions looks weird with the UI on the desktop builds, WebGL fullscreen looks fine tho.

For scrolling games it's best to put the player near the edge (top edge in this case) so that they can see what's ahead.

That was fun and the sounds were great!

It was a bit difficult to see whether you're on the ground or not from the top down perspective, though.

Fun concept. Nice sound clips. Was a little tricky to notice you were being thrown up in the air some times. Once I realized that was happening it all made a lot more sense. Nice entry.

Great atmosphere and gameplay. Great sounds for when you hit the squirrels. A lot of fun!

I would've like a bit more color. The concept is really fun, though.

Nice use of both theme! Maybe you should put the player closer to the edge because you can't see what is coming if you go too fast. Good job!

Pretty fun game, although the instructions are BLOODY hard to read.

As we all know, games with snowballs picking up stuff are completely amazing. *cough* Lookin' good.

Great stuff, once I got hang of it.

Don't know if it was just me, but the yellowish font on the white-yellowish background was almost illegible. Consider using something with a bit more contrast :)

Would've loved seeing the caught items stick out from the snowball :D
