Today we will give you a quick background on the game aspects, that are not directly related to SnowballZ gameplay itself. We will talk about the MiniGames.
One of the features that will be shipped with the game is a set of small and catchy games, that will let you relax before (or after) a snowball battle. Some of them will be concentrated on a single player gameplay. Some of them will be aimed for multiplayer as well. Some will tease your braincells. Some will just require you to have a quick arm and a sharp eye. But all of them will have one thing in common: they will be awesome! Why bothering with such silly games along the way of development you ask? Naturally, there’s more to this idea than meets the eye at first. What we’re aiming at is to create an off-main-gameplay community, that all of you guys will be able to share. And obviously, some of the games will have hidden surprises and extra gifts, with which you will be able to upgrade/beautify your penguins and ice cities.
Did I just write “ice cities”? I guess I did, so it’s time to shed some light on another secret of ours. Apart from playing the game itself and it’s subsequent minigames, you will have the opportunity to establish your own ice cities. This is where your friends will gather, where you will have the chance to form your own clans and even have your own logo/team banner. All will be done by the means of a convienient and cool web interface of course (it IS going to be an online game after all ;))!
Below is a new set of screenshots, as promised. No gameplay this time, sorry (you will get to see the new “igloo takeover” feature soon though). Enjoy! And bear in mind: These are just prototypes and will look different in the final version
