Snowmen King Of The Hill by xeon06

made by xeon06 for LD31 (COMPO)

Manage to stay in the arena the longest and be the King Of The Hill! Use the arrow keys to bump the other ☃ off the screen, seeing as the entire game is on one screen. Your name tag is blue, and the current leader's name tag is in bold.

This is a multiplayer game, make sure to invite your friends to play with you! Just send them a link to this page.

Kind of a spinoff of that Mario Party Bumper Balls game. I was also super sad about the ☃ so I decided to include some. I realize a multiplayer game isn't ideal for testing / voting but I'd been wanting to try my hand at one for a while now and I had fun with it. I sadly didn't have time to make an AI :(

Hi there. Like this game model, from Mario Party #1 ? or predates that maybe. No-one else on when I tried, managed to move very slowly indeed.

I really like the gam, was a but laggy for me, but might be internet connection, I think movement could be a little more polish, but overall a great game.

I managed to stay alive for about 30 seconds, once. This is a lot of fun, and a great example of a simple Node.js multiplayer game. :)

Fun Christmas game where the multiplayer adds a lot! The ability to chat with your opponent would've been a big bonus! Merry Christmas!

Fun +5!!! Such a simple concept and so many dogfighting!

No-one to play with unable to rate - you could have made it single player with the simplest AI. Seems like it would be fun.

Got someone to play with me and it was pretty cool and funny. I wish the presentation was a little bit less simplistic though.

Just played it with alvarop and drnick. The trick is to just move in a big circle and dodge everything, your opponents will out themselves.

Very fun.

Very fun! Perhaps the most fun game I played so far.

I played for some good 20 minutes vs. awsumpwner27, we got 80s max time I think.

It was a bit (much) laggy when I tried it with some guys from #ludumdare.

I think this game would be a lot of fun if it wasn't for the lag.

I'll rate as if it wasn't laggy ;-)
