CONTROL
You control the ice-paddle, WASD to move.
STORY
The children are starting a snowball fight. Will you show them how to make a snowman, or fight back instead?
HOW TO WIN
The game is over if you make 16 snowmen, or win the snowball fight (no more kids left).
1. Direct the snowballs to the middle of the screen to build the snowman.
2. For every snowman you complete, the ice-paddle will extend!
3. If you prefer, direct the snowballs at the kids. They will run home.
THEME: The more you have, the worse it is.
This theme applies in 3 ways:
1. More snowballs, harder to return them back.
2. Size of ice-paddle extends, and slows down, harder to handle.
3. More kids throwing snowballs

BUILDING FROM SOURCE
These are rough guidelines off the top of my head, please only follow this if you know what the commands do.
The game depends on SFML 2.4 and CMake.

```
mkdir build
cd build
ln -s ../data data
cmake ..
make
