About 1 week ago i decided i was in the mood to make a winter game, i have almost no coding experience so this was a great chance at learning some. To my surprise there were no relevant tutorial (as far as i could find), so i had to figure everything out myself. I am very happy with the product.

Snovv is a minimalistic “runner”, you are a snowboarder, and the goal is to collect as many gems as possible, upgrade your character and get the highest score possible.

Please keep in mind it only took a week to develop, and i would highly appreciate your help in finding bugs and fixes. I am also open to suggestions on how to further improve the game :slight_smile: Let me know either here, or in the comment section on kongregate. In advace thank you for trying out my game :lol:

Update 1: Alpha Build v1.1
Fixed:

  • New icon
  • Wider screen
  • Lag on gem pickup
  • Gems now disappear when picked up
  • Prices are now shown on the side of the upgrade buttons
  • No longer any huge empty areas on each side of the map
  • Replaced the current score and highscore with “New highscore” if you are infact getting a new highscore.
  • Edited the GUI buttons when hovering
  • Removed the “Quit” button (Useless in webplayer anyways)

Its pretty addicting ,but sometimes you will spawn in a tree.

Its fun, but please allow use of the arrow keys or WASD instead of the mouse. It can get a little annoying at times using the mouse.

Other than that, great work!

Thanks
Regarding the spawn inside a tree, i am going to fix it soon:) I can test how keyboard steering works out, i’ll keep you posted, an update is coming soon.

You should add a countdown timer at the start, so players would have a couple of seconds to see where they need to go, crashing rightaway is frustrating. Also I’d recommend adding some kind of result screen when you die, which would show how long you lasted, what your score was etc.

Good advice :slight_smile: Thank you

I can’t wait. I’ll test play it every update!
