Snowfall: The Endless Winter
EDIT 6/18/24: The main music during gameplay is corrupted for some reason. I'm trying to fix it.

It is officially the 3rd anniversary of Snowfall: The Game! I've improved a lot at coding over the years, so I figured I'd completely remake the game with all-new art, code, music, and gameplay. Many of the characters are the same, but I've added some new ones as well.
This game isn't completely finished, and I hope to add more stuff in the upcoming weeks. If you notice any bugs or have any suggestions, feel free to leave a comment!
I hope you enjoy! ^^

Welcome to Rinkusu Island, a once-magical island home to lynxes now cursed with an endless winter.
You are born to Cinnamon and Oak, leaders of a small tribe of lynxes seeking refuge from the harsh wilderness. Will you be able to stop the winter?
Previous game (you don't have to play that one to understand this one, though!)

you can have kits, right?
'very bad' /j
Also, some questions:
1. Is there a way to end the endless winter? Is it planned but not coded in yet? Or will the game stay true to it's name and there's no way to end the winter?
2. WHO IS THE GUY BY THE POOL?!?!?!? (Seriously tho, why's he there?)
3. Is there a way to become leader? Or is it planned, but not yet coded in?
4. What can you do when you're a citizen (Healer/hunter/warrior)?
5. Who are the possible mates?
6. What's the crystal shard in Oak's den?
Also how do you come back to life?
So it's been a minute since I played this game, and as soon as I loaded in I was reminded of how absolutely tiny and precious I look like as a kitten in game (I nearly burst into tears bc of how cute it was)
i'd like to mate someone :(
keep giving gifts to people, a bouquet once you reach max stars, rinse and repeat, then give them a diamond
ok thanks!
How to eat on mobile
This game is so beautiful
People who keep getting the opposite gender when generating XD
I got a question. How the hell do I gain combat experiance? Am I dumb or have I looked in all the wrong places?
forget this comment, I figured it out (and yes, I am dumb it was written in big letters as "training".)
DID YALL KNOW THAT ONE OF THE CATS ON PATROL IS MOONKITTI
the second it started snowing the English or Spanish music started playing and i ran into the nursery i aint getting struck by lightning today
I was named Elder lol

No problem xD
one min into the game and im dead lol
how'd you die?

same, i died by an eagle
rip
I honestly really enjoy this game. What i like the most about it is, the character customization isnt like other games! Most games either have a few skins you can select from or you can create it yourself, but in this game, its completely randomized! I think thats what makes me enjoy this game so much because the creator tries something new and different. Its a breath of fresh air honestly
the thing I would say about this game that I dislike the most though.. its only really like a minor issue tbh. During the hunting section of training, aometimes ill miss the prey and itll take suuuch a long time to spawn in more or it'll just never spawn more in. Sometimes its to the point where i need to restart the game to try and get my 5 pieces of prey
but that's really my only problem with the game. I look forward to seeing more about this game on the future and learning about the characters more, the story youre trying to tell really grabs my attention like no other game.
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it! I really appreciate the comment :D
For the hunting, make sure you stay in the same area while you’re waiting for prey to spawn, because each time you move to a new area, prey will spawn in 5 to 10 seconds if I remember correctly. Hope this helps!
When i generate a coat and eye color I just get aggresive feelings Aand i love it and hate it at the same time xD I love daylight
How long does it take for you to have kittens once your mate asks you? And if you're a medicine cat (female) can you have kits?
You're a lynx
If I remember correctly, it takes 2 or 3 minutes. And yes, you can have kits if you're a healer
It's funny, when your eye is behind a message like when your mate says "Good morning honey ^^ What are you going to do today?" your eye just pops out like "YOU ARE NOT HIDING ME!"
Oh, when you are on patrol, go to the left/right all the way, then when you turn back your eye glitches for a second lol. The eye always wants to be the most interesting xD
Okay, think I'm finding all the weird split-second visuals lol, when your mate says the same thing, if you have a scarf or leg wrap or head acc, or anything, it glitches through the chat box, all the accs and your eye loves being the center of glitches and attention lol
You know why I like this game? Because the developer actually responds to comments. I know mossy is busy, and there are a lot of comments, and that's not his fault, it's just a nice touch :)
Thanks! I try my best lol
:D
mossy responds now he is no longer busy
Why does cart gives me the feeling he's a lynx version of the one that played the piano and the frog fell in love with him from romeo and juliet xD
How do I date a lynx in the game or is that not coded yet?
edit:nvm
THE BEST LYNX GAME EVER!
Lynx is my 2nd fav under wolves :)
hehe so smoll
how are they so smol?
are you supposed to be able to read the books in the cafe because I can't
i dont think you can
No, IcyTea hasn't coded them yet.
when i killed the elk the body was the fox body and when i killed the fox the body was the elk body.
haha everytime i ill a fox, it gives me an elk body. everytime I kill an elk, it gives me an elk body.
I noticed that every time I try to play it reloads and I have to restart. I’m not trying to be a Karen but it’s really annoying and I hope you can fix it.
I found a glitch, in the herb garden, you can't pick the final three herbs on the snow up, no matter what stage of growth they are in
Yeah, I'm not sure what's causing that. It's purely visual though; you still get the herb in your inventory (and it fixes if you leave and come back to the area)
oh ok, thanks!
I discovered it actually doesn't put it in your inventory (at least for me) so idk, but when I come back, it has disappeared.
Oh and 3. how do you play with your kit
