hey Roofus99
Thanks for your feedback! I'm glad to hear you like the game. Regarding the multiplayer feature, please make sure you've set the correct region. You can switch between zones, such as Europe and America. Keep in mind that players may not always be online at the same time. Let me know if this helps. Thanks!

Snow Wars not loading

This game would not even load once purchased. Waste of money. 0/5 stars for this one.

broken rotation

Downloaded the game for a daughter week ago. After few minutes she says that rotation is weird and wanted to play another game.

Did not paid much of an attention to it.

Today i started the game and now i know what she meant by that. If you try to rotate with the right stick you go backwards at the same time, resulting in going back and turning left...

Tried it on the new quest 3

Has potential 🤷‍♂️

📈 @3⭐️ 2024.01.24

**Solid experience for all but Private games**

🔊 To be clear, my ratings and review are based on my use case which is “Safe place to game with my kids, simple and easy to use.”

🟢 This is a beautiful game that has made some very good improvements. It’s fun, simple, and has many good custom options to tweak your game environment. Plus the weapons are fun 😀

If you’re looking for a game to play online with strangers or solo, I encourage you to pick it up. Good community and an amazing group of very responsive devs who truly care about their product.

🔴 There are some gaps in the private mode that are lacking and keep me & my family from playing this as often as we had hoped. Mainly:

- “Loading” still happens more than necessary and your private room will on rare occasions kick you out.

- Private servers are non-persistent, meaning that I can create one, message it to my family, and have them join but the room doesn’t stay between games. You can’t exit a game mode back to your lobby with the same people unless you want to keep the settings and modes the same. You quite literally have to create the lobby and message a new code every time. It really makes the flow difficult.

- ❓I haven’t verified if the initial loading lobby is safe & private or not. It wasn’t at the last update, but no one was online in my country when I logged in late last night. I’ll update when I’ve verified it one way or another.

📈 @2⭐️
**Updated: Lobby Experience: not safe or private**

🤦🏼‍♂️ Oof. Good idea but rough execution. The lobby isn’t private. There isn’t a way to “opt out” or create a private one for your friends. You are quite literally at the mercy of whomever is logged in.

This means that even the game at launch isn’t protected for minors. They are tossed into a lobby chat with whomever is online.

I love the idea of a lobby, but not in its current form. It needs a bunch if work, safeguards, privacy options, etc. Hopefully future releases address this problem.

📈 @3⭐️
**NOV 2023**

🍿 TLDR: Fun game with a cool concept, but not a $20 game yet. Not close. Needs some QoL improvements to close the gap with other multiplayer games of comparable pricing. Has potential, but I’d not spend more than $8-$9 in its current state.

✅ POSITIVES
- Mechanics are decent
- amazing fun concept
- variety of power ups and weapons are great
- solid discord community
- has private game mode so you can play with friends

🤔 NEUTRAL: stuff that’s personal preference

- can’t customize snowman
- Tutorial can be vague & leave some things to the imagination. (See “storing snow”. If you pack it first it will not register and you can’t clear the tutorial)

❌ NEEDS WORK: Multi Player
- each game requires you to recreate a game and send a code out. If you want to play a bunch of games with the same friends, you have to create them individually. TERRIBLE experience. Awful. Why not let us create a room and rotate the different game options through ( see walkabout mini golf multi player experience)

- you respawn in the same place mostly. So someone can just kill, camp, and wipe you out over and over.

- “teams” only. If you have 3 people wanting to play, it’s always 2-1. Why not let us have a “free for all” mode?

❌ NEEDS WORK: non-multi player
- you often pick up a weapon off the belt instead of extra snow or power-ups. It’s too close

- no snow “quantity” alerts. You have to grab snow and listen to the different sounds to find out if you have “max snow”

- reloading certain guns require different snowpack. This isn’t immediately obvious and is only figured out by trial and error. (see shotgun vs snowgun).

Hi TheShadraq,

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and experiences with Snow Wars. We genuinely appreciate your detailed feedback, as it helps us identify areas for improvement and make Snow Wars a better experience for everyone.

Let's dive into your points:

🔐 Lobby Privacy and Safety:
While we appreciate your feedback, it's essential to note that players do have the option to log in and create a private server for their group immediately. This feature allows for a more controlled and secure gaming environment for you and your friends.

Moreover, the ability to mute players provides an additional layer of control over your gaming experience, allowing you to manage interactions within the game more effectively.

⛄ Snowman Customization
It's on our radar for future updates, so keep an eye out for upcoming announcements.

📖 Tutorial
We'll certainly check for any areas that can be improved. In essence, the tutorial aims to provide precise guidance on interactions. We've learned from experience that too many uncertainties can leave players confused, prompting questions on how to proceed.

❄️Storing snow
Snow quantity is numerically displayed on weapons, in the inventory, shop, and even on your hand.

🤼 Multiplayer
As mentioned, players can now create public servers or join currently active ones.

Spawn points across the map are randomized, but we're aware of potential exploits. We're investigating this closely and actively seeking a solution.

Thanks for suggesting the Free for All mode – it's indeed a great idea! We've passed on this feedback to our developers.

... and thank you for flagging the issue of picking up weapons instead of extra snow or power-ups. We're currently investigating this and appreciate your patience. As we mentioned, checking snow quantity is possible in various places. Additionally, the unique aspect of Snow Wars is the abundance of snow everywhere, providing an unlimited resource.

Big thanks for your upbeat feedback! We're happy you're enjoying the game mechanics, concept, and the diverse power-ups/weapons. Your presence in our solid Discord community means a lot!

Best,
Actum Games Team
