by Rick Kelley · 10/24/2006 (5:35 pm) · 9 comments

You play as a either a mad snowman/snowoman or a snowman/snowoman trying to defeat the mad snowmen/snowomen faction bent on destroying thier human creators homes.

Your weapons will be *gasp* flamethrowers, saltgrenades, hairdryers, brooms, and snowmelt.

Game play will include capture the flag, and aSalt (assualt) and defend missions

Sounds like fun! :-)

Need some snow falling :-)

Would be cool if you could roll down a hill turning in to a ball, getting bigger and bigger so you can swash the other teams snowmen/snowomen. Then you just jump and turn back to your normal self.

Thanks for all the comments and ideas. Its workable and as a free for all right now, and some ctf type of game play. I am looking into having some more help on coding to nail down some rough spots in the game play. I have snowmobile code down pretty good and its pretty fun blasting snowmen and running them down. You can even get another bot to ride shotgun which is hilarious to watch as an obsever. I will try to get some more screen shots after I finish up a level, as well as some class choice shots of other snowmen/snowomen types and abilities.

Its been a long, long, year! And I have little time, but want to continue! I have added a new feature called A Salt (Assualt) and Revenge (Defend) game play where you try to raid your enemies Salt stockpile bunkers that have tons of heavy enforced areas such as auto flame throwers and auto salt grenade launchers defending the stockpiles. Also adding Antifreeze weapons!
