The gameplay is really unique too; I really felt like I was battling the wind - it was quite tiring!

I loved the art, and it sure was a task to push through the wind! The game felt too short to be completely enjoyable... otherwise the game was fun!"},{"author_name":"dcRfj15","author_uid":"49644","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 9:57pm","epoch":1450216320,"text":"The graphics are lovely. I loved all of the visual effects in the background. My only complaint there would be that the snowman was a little too hard to see because it blended in with the surroundings a lot.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>My right index finger got a large workout :P. Nice job overall!"},{"author_name":"Komradus","author_uid":"11076","time":"Dec 17, 2015 @ 10:59am","epoch":1450349640,"text":"Solid graphics, though the blizzards could've used some more dynamics like particle effects."},{"author_name":"NoWandStudios","author_uid":"50652","time":"Dec 17, 2015 @ 11:04am","epoch":1450349940,"text":"I like the art.

Play as a snowman trying to find his nose in a blizzard and battle against the wind with experiential controls.\r\n\r\nControls\/Tips\r\n- Repeatedly tap the right arrow key to push onwards through the storm.\r\n- Press space to jump across gaps, making sure to time it right, when the wind is weak.\r\n- A strong wind is signified by clouds and visual gusts of wind - avoid jumping when these are present or the wind will knock you backwards!\r\n\r\nNote\r\nThough submitted as just a 'jam' entry, the game was developed entirely by myself within the first 48 hours of LD34.","title":"Against the Blizzard"}
