Update 0.52 Now Live
We've just launched the 0.52 update to Snow Fortress with some fixes and new features:
- FORT SAVING! In Snow Fort mode you can now restart any level with the fort as it was when the throwing stage starts (ie: When "GO" is shown on the screen). This is the first step in this implementation and currently saves just the last built fort. You'll see a new Restart With Saved Fort button whenever you die or win, or in the pause menu. This will cut the built time to just 10 seconds for any last minute adjustments you want to make and disable the block spawner so you can't keep adding blocks endlessly. We'd love to get feedback on this feature so let us know what you think and if you have any suggestions.
- SNOW GLOBES :) the level select menu now has snow globes for each of the levels, they still work the same way just look cooler
- New scoring system for Survival Mode, hits to a snowman are 25 points, snowman kills are 100 points
- Fixed powerup (question mark) blocks so they can show cracking like regular blocks
- New Sound FX when the fox is hit by a snowball
- New snowball whoosh sound, so you can hear snowballs whoosh past your hear :)
- Fixes to some sounds
- Bug fixes
- Memory performance improvements
Next Up:
We'll be working on adjusting the blocks so it's not as easy to knock over your own fort when building. Thanks for your support and please don't forget to leave a review :)
