Haha, nice work! Love how almost everybody makes a game about snowmans. But this game fits the actual theme aswell. Love the animations of the snowman.
I really enjoyed this one especially the rabbit pooing carrots!
Fun!
I am pretty sure the snowman is the bad guy here, murdering lumberjacks and stealing carrots from rabbits. Towards the end I was half-expecting the cops or army to come in to try and take down the monster.
Gameplay wise I felt like the difficulty was a bit flat and on the easy side, there didn't seem to be any more or harder obstacles towards the end than at the start and I won on the first try. I couldn't really tell how near the tree was to being destroyed, how many hits does it take?
A fun little game, would have been nice for it to ramp up either in variety or difficulty but still enjoyed it. good work.
Fun game. The auido is not so good but the graphics is amazing. Cool game overall.
The art is nice, you guys are really obsessed by the snow man lol
Nice game ! some variety in the enemies or increasing difficulty would enhance it. I like the rabbit animation :)
Result after 10 carrots: 63 lumberjacks, 454 snowballs. Kept me busy, but wasn't very interesting.
Luckily snowmen can run indefinitely and are much faster than lumberjacks.
Cool (no pun intended) game! I wish there was more variety or that the difficulty increased as you collected carrots.
Poor bunnies. Their digestive system must be bad if they're pooping whole carrots!
Hi there. Lovely game! Got victory, 73 LJ, 404 snowballs thrown. Really good job xmas game!
I like the art including the animation. It might have been a little on the easy side but there is definitely room to make things more interesting.
I really enjoyed this game. It was a simple theme but very hard at the same time. I'm a lumberjack and I don't carrot?
Initially, I thought it was just another top down shooter, but then I noticed the carrot collecting spin. Also really loved the graphics. Nice, well rounded game.
Decently made one-screen shooter, not enough response or impact when hitting or killing enemies. I'd recommend (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJdEqssNZ-U), a talk by the devs at vlambeer with some tips that would improve any action game (including yours!)
great little game, nice tactic to draw the snowman away from tree.
Handles well and is very clear how to play, pretty simple though but a great start to what could be expanded to more.
Very nice game. I like the graphics very much. The carrot in the snowmans hand was my highlight. I've noticed it after the 5th carrot or so. Very well done. Thank you for your game.
Cool graphics, sounds are OK but fit their role of warnings once the the player grasps the concept.
At first I thought the carrots were not enough noticeable, and in the first moment of play, you are not sure what exactly to do in the game.
The carrots disappear pretty quickly and are sometimes hidden by the trees.
From the moment you start to pay attention to their spawning sound, it becomes easier to go and fetch them right away.
Good job making a game in 48 hours.

PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
No snowman theme and you're still all: "I do what I want!". Well that being said it was still a pretty good tower defense kinda experience, well done.
