I just handed in a small game for a Flash course at my university. It's online, so try it out if you feel up to it. If there are some great pixel-artists out there, who are just dying t get their graphics in a game, let me know - I did the graphics for this game myself, and I'm getting punked for the retarded style by my friends, so if you feel you can do this game's graphics better than I did, let me know, and we'll show'em!

(mind, if you don't have a flash plugin for your browser, you wil be re-directed to where you can get it before the game launches)
Btw. any c&c on the game as such is welcome.
Nice, I like the graphics. It gives me the winter spirit.
It is rather difficult though. What do you do with the fying thing. I just can't get away from it and can't fire on it.
And when I die, it's stuck and can't get out of it. No matter what I press. Shouldn't there be a button for replay/quit?
You're right, there should be some kind of "play again"-button. I will try to implement it, meanwile, pressing F5 refreshes the browser window, which restarts the game :-)
The flying thing can be killed with a direct snowball hit... but it can be hard to hit.
You're not kidding.. that joker is right on you like flies on doodoo. Less rigid folowing by him of the main character might be welcome. Every time I played, he ganked me. Other than that, a fine game...
Ok, maybe it's a bit too difficult. But did you try controlling the direction of the wind by moving the mouse around. The flying terror is affected by the wind direction...
He is? He seemed to stick directly to me with little regard for the wind, but I never bothered changing it for two reasons:
1) I thought that was terribly complicated, and with the exception of that little white hamburger, I was doing fine free from wind changing.
2) I felt suddenly afraid that some ancient deity would smite me for entering into control of his or her sphere of influence...
1 - yeah - changing the wind direction could be explaned better on the intro screen, I guess, and maybe its an unneccesary feature entirely - but I thoght people are used to using both mouse and keyboard for games, so why not use it for a new kind of gameplay.
2 - Oh, did I forget to tell? I cursed the game. Anyone playing it will die unexpectedly very soon afterwards. Sorry :-\
