Impressive! i really like the concept. the boost was the first bonus i got, right off the bat so i was going pretty fast in my first impression. highscore 56k. got stuck between two trees :c

Ha ha That was pretty great! I loved the random attributes that got added as you played.

Boost + Antigravity is the best. But yeah, the snow feels so good! Definitely a winner! Although I'm a little confused about how Immunity functions, doesn't see to work for extreme cases like boosting into a corner and flying far away. I died several times while still "immune"!

All the fine details look amazing. The fog, the snow, the snow particles around the ball. I think it would be nice if the random attribute text appeared temporarily in big font near the top of the screen so it would be easier to read but other than that great game :D

The first time I played the game those pop ups didn't seem to pop up and I can't seem to get rid of my old comment

It's great! I don't know how the snowball ended up there, but it seems like a really dangerous place for it to be. :D I love the presents and the powerups.

Other than getting stuck in two trees, it was rather fun! I didn't get what immunity does. It was pretty cool little game! Very good indeed.

I found a game breaking bug and a a slightly less game breaking but. When you get too big, you can't fit between trees. Also, when you crash into a tree at a really high speed and bounce backwards, the level unloaded behind you. Here are some pics: http://imgur.com/a/a92jW

The word I'd use to describe this game is "cruel". Incredibly fun, but cruel. Job well done.

Nice, fun, and addictive game. The graphics are nice, and the gameplay is fun. The game also ran surprisingly fast on my old laptop. Overall: Great, addictve game, good optimization. I have given it a top overall score.

Cool game! While getting a good score did often comes down to the luck of getting the right bonuses at the right time, it also means you always feel that it's potentially possible to beat your previous score. Especially when you get boost+anti gravity+a slope!

My best was 40447.

Pro:
+ Great concept
+ Mechanics are really fun
+ Audio and graphics are cool and fit very well (specially with this season)
Con:
- Sometimes I got stuck between trees
Obs:
o Highscore 41k
o It's a bit strange the snowball always goes forward even when there is an up slope
o Didn't get what immunity does

Awesome work!

That is a really thin track to roll a snowball in :P. Had a bit of fun with this arcade game.

Some criticisms: a few power-ups have confusing names. What does super-ball do? How about Shed-Weight?
The inverse controls discourages collecting gifts. Is this intentional?
I bumped into a tree, got stuck for a few minutes, then died. Is that supposed to happen?

Good job, overall!
