Be a baller as you roll down the hill and grow! Win the game by becoming the biggest thing on the slopes! Featuring procedural terrain generation and low-poly art!
How to play:
- Left/Right arrow keys to move
- Rolling over snow makes you grow
- Rolling over rocks, crystals, and trees that are smaller than you will absorb them and make you grow faster
- Rolling into rocks, crystals, and trees that are bigger than you causes you to shrink
How to win:
- Become bigger than anything else you encounter!
Full screen recommended! Right click -> "Go fullscreen"
Updates:
- Added a "Distance" score for when you win. Try to win in as little distance as possible!
- Increased the volume
I wrote up a tutorial on how I did the terrain generation (just the ground, not the objects). You can read it here if you're interested: http://ludumdare.com/compo/2015/12/16/snowballin-technical-post-mortem-procedural-terrain-generation-tutorial/
