That said, it's the first shooter I've played this LD rating that had a gun that felt powerful, so well done on that regard. Also really liked the fact it wasn't just shoot the thing but you added a fun twist that wasn't just optional but vital to the game.\n\nOne point of critique, don't call your file game.zip.

The sound effects also fitted well with the game. I didn't have a chance to try the co-op but from what I've seen it looks rather fun.\n\n### To improve:\n\nI kept clicking out of the window because I couldn't see where my cursor was. A crosshair for this sort of thing would be nice. I also think the ability to carry multiple weapons would be nice as well as a melee weapon such as a shovel.\n\nBut overall, a great game!\n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"tomer_cool","author_uid":"1005388","time":"2017-12-06T16:45:54Z","epoch":1512578754,"modified":1512578754,"text":"Nice game, I like it.\nMy complaints are that the camera angle was weird.

I liked the snow-clearing mechanic, but it didn't seem to have any real effect on either the player or the snowmen? Perhaps the snow could make you slower, or make them more powerful? I played until around 1000 points and figured there'd be no more stuff happening. Maybe its more fun in coop mode :P\n\nReally liked the visuals and the running animation. The shotgun sound got a bit loud at points, and it was a bit unclear how some enemies took multiple shots to kill (ofc larger enemies take more, but same sized snowmen took 1 or 2 hits).
