A snowy mountain survival for GameBoy Color!

It was supposed to be an ordinary trip, but not everything went according to the plan... Your plane crashed. 

Will you survive in the snowy mountains?

Prepare yourself, because it's going to be a COLD NIGHTS there.

  • use your penknife with different tips
  • find food and ration it, going to bed hungry can make you sick
  • make a fire to keep warm during nights or you can get sick (or even freeze to death)
  • find and loot different things and try to combine them to create something useful that will help you to survive
  • find equipment to go through the snow storm
  • get help and survive!

Thank you, so happy to hear that! I think I'll try to think of something, then. Also, first I will make sure that everything works properly and will add music and sounds.

absolutely looking forward to it, thanks for replying

Hey Fizzlymike, I’m loving this. Reminds me of my Off-Grid, but better! :) You’ve inspired me to review it and give it some polish.

So happy to hear that! I've played "Off Grid" as you may remember and really liked it too! :) And I don't think my game is better, they're both good at different aspects I think.

Where you inspired by “Stranded Kids”? Do you know that game?

Yes! That was actually my inspiration. I love this game so much! Always liked the "combine items" system, that's why I wanted to implement this in my game, too.

I discovered it through my Ambernic, great game. Yes the “combine items” is a cool idea. I think your system has more polish than even stranded kids. I found stranded kids difficult at first, lots of trial and error over combinations. I think I had to look for online help! I love the visual ques you’ve put into your system.

Thank you so much, such a compliment means a lot to me!

Hi. I bought your game for few weeks for 3$. Now it coast 5$ dollar and i cant download it again cause it havent any download files?

Hm, that's weird. File is still here and should be avaible for you all the time if you paid for it. Can you please give me your e-mail adress?

I don't want to publish my email on comment section. Can I dm u on Discord?

Of course! Find me as fizzly, the same avatar like here.

I like this game!I've hit a bit of a wall though...after getting into all the buildings and triple checking that I got all the items, I'm still not able to get the proper footwear. Maybe I'm just having trouble figuring it out? I've been at a loss for a while now and I can't beat the game.

Happy that you like it! If you've got paddles, then try to looks at the hints drawn in the backgrounds in menu.

Hi, u will ad chiptune in the future? :)

Yes, will love too, but I'm not good at this, so I think I'm counting on someone's help in this matter ^^'

Allright, thanks for the answer :)

Np, thanks for visiting! :)

I was rescued! I thought this was fun, and I liked how everything gradually fell into place - great job with that! Have never been so happy to see canned food too. :) The [thing] in the forest appeared only twice (on Day 6, maybe, and Day 8?) after I saw it for first time - is that intentional? I did get a little worried I was going to starve, though it turned out ok.

Not sure if this is a bug, but cooking food in the fireplace seemed to work only if the fire was lit immediately before cooking. If I lit the fire, went out and did stuff and came back, combining the pot and food would result in "You have to be at the fireplace" message even though I was standing in front of it.

Congrats on getting this done!

Thank you SeaPhoenix! So happy that you've made it :) The fire and cooking, it wasn't to work like this definitely... I need to fix this, thank you for reporting that. The bunny shows randomly, so it could be like that. Maybe it's too rare though...

//Fixed. Thank you so much SeaPhoenix.

That wuz a sweet li'l game! <3 I didn't get all the snowstorm equipment, I guess I'm missin' the goggles? There wuz a snowpile next to the pond, where I'm guessin' the goggles must be, but I could not clear the snowpile even tho I wuz warm and rested. Did I overlook summat? o_o

Oh, I think it can be a bug, then. So sorry for that! I'll fix this today. I think I'll disable the game until then... thank you for your feedback and for playing!

//Yup, that was a bug. Fixed. Thank you so much Alice Gristle.
