Snow Day by chispaLBC
it's a beautiful snow day! You don't have any food left... What if there is so much snow you can't buy food? how are you going to feed your cat?
he's already hungry, you better go buy some cat food.
please take some time to read:
How to play:
- ASDW to move.
- left click to remove snow.
- enter the shop and click on the cat food to buy it, you can carry 1 at a time, it costs 8 $.
- Then go to your house and click on the bowl to feed your cat.
- The more your cat meows, the more hungry he is.
- if you don't remove the snow fast enough you won't be able to remove it. (running out of space hmm)
- you earn more money the less snow there is on the floor
# Known bugs: # * sometimes when you remove the snow, you also remove yourself lol. * Even though i have set the game to be displayed in 16:10 it plays at any aspect ratio so maybe it is cropped * not a bug but i didn't really have time to test it so maybe it is unbalanced.
About the theme: at first it was going to be a game where the floor was falling or something like that so that you were running out of space but i saw that a lot of people had similar ideas so i tried to give a "story".
I wanted to improve some of the graphics and make a gameover animation but didnt have time.
Sorry about any posible typo and have fun.

The concept was pretty cool and I enjoyed the artstyle. It was kind of annoying that the snow became impossible to move; I eventually felt like I had no options. Maybe you could make it take more clicks to remove instead.
1 star out of 5, you cat killer!
More seriously, I really enjoyed your game. It has great controls, but sometime it's hard to remove snow while moving at the same time, forcing you to get back on your track. Also, it was a bit unclear for me to know when I had to buy food for the cat as I could just brought food and he wouldn't stop meowing faster. (Just like a real life cat I guess???) Overall good entry, nice job.
@ectucker1 i wanted to do that! but didn't have time unfortunatelly.
@swift i said it in "how ti play" it was the best, i didnt have time for more :s
@mrsylar59 ACTUALLY i didn't kill the cat, you did :angry: (my first idea was to make the cat explode (but he was going to survive, the explosion wasn't going to hurt him) but didnt have time to make a good gameOver xD
I'm curious, how did you came with the feeding the cat idea? It was super cool.
Awesome job!
Your movement velocity isn't normalized, so you move a lot faster diagonally. Pretty minor, but if you wanted to fix it Unity vectors should have a Normalize() method for their vectors. I don't use Unity, so I'm not sure exactly how they have it.
Good job on the game.
Very good game.. I like the idea and that simple but attractive graphics.
@hunter-towe it should remove the snow with the first click hmmm (maybe you are no in range?)
