@eri0o - I've fixed that issue, just pondering whether to roll out a V3 demo or now.
@milkanannan - if I do release a third and final version of the demo, I'll definitely update the first post!  ;-D Thanks.

Sorry about the delay, been away for a few days.

No idea if this one's been done before...

On the basis that is looks vaguely like Sandra Bullock I'll hazard a guess at The Net.

I've never actually played it but as soon as I saw that second screenshot it made me think "looks just like Defender of the Crown - but on a space station"... which should have given me a clue really  :-D

Oh wait is this SDI by Cinemaware? Your hint gave me the idea.

This is fun, but I also think I found a bug.

Spoiler
Sometimes when I use right click to delete I create an all consuming punctiform blackhole that just takes in all snow...
[close]

Yeah I can't quite figure out why that's happening yet, since delete is not something you're likely to use very often I have considered taking away that function completely, but it does allow for different strategies and level design strategies so I'd rather keep it. I can't find a consistent reason as to why it's happening; the only solution I think will definitely work is going to slow the game down. So... still thinking about it!  :grin: Thanks for playing.  ;-D

Still in development? What is missing?

Ah... nothing. He just needs to update the Status on the Itch page for the game. I've made this mistake before myself!

Great to see this released! All those years after we originally made the MAGS game together where the main connective theme was "pink socks"!  :-D

This looks like a lot of fun. Will there be a level editor mode?

If there's interest in a level editor I can certainly make it accessible. I just don't know how much more work I want to do on it for it to be truly user-friendly as it works fine for what I want!  :-D I also need to think about the easiest way to make new levels / level packs playable in the main game.

I've been optimising the code and changing a few things so I may well release a Demo v2 soon. Might get a couple of people who've already tested the game to try out the level editor and give me some feedback on how easy it is to use.

I'm pretty curious to see how this game looks in motion and how it plays!

Well, be curious no more my friend! I have released the demo so you can see it in action. The demo contains the first 10 levels of the planned 100 levels from the full game. I have deliberately included one level that you may find a little tricky to beat (at least, I hope you don't beat every level first time without any effort!!)

One potential issue I am concerned about is whether older machines might experience excessive slowdown so if you experience this please let me know (and what hardware you're using).

Grats on getting to release stage mate, roll on 27th May  :cool:

AGS Games in Production / Snow Problem
Wed 11/05/2022 22:29:24


Continuing my bizarre love of creating anything but adventure games with AGS, I present my latest project - Snow Problem!

This is a puzzle game in which you have to gather snow. Easy you may think, but each level will present obstacles for you to carefully steer your snow around with well placed thingamabobs. The game will feature 100 levels with generally increasing difficulty as you progress, and a built-in level editor to create up to 100 more.

A 12-level demo is available on Itch

Congrats on the release and I hope you reach your intended market - my kids are in the target age group and it definitely looks like something they would enjoy if they could understand Greek.
