SnowPlaygrounds

Snow Playgrounds

This mod is a mix of inspirations I had or received, some of which came from the 'Snowballs' thread created by Sniker

Snow Pile

Description

A new hazard that can spawn both indoors and outdoors (depending on configuration)

• Contains 20 stacks of snow by default
• Players can collect snow to create snowballs (5 stacks per inventory slot by default)
• Can also be used to reload the Snowgun
• The pile shrinks each time snow is taken until it disappears

Snowball

Description

A brand-new throwable item.

• On the ground: leaves a white trace
• On players: pushes them back and slightly obstructs their vision
• On enemies: briefly slows them
• On snowmen: causes them to explode and disappear

Snowman

Description

A new hazard that can spawn indoors or outdoors (depending on configuration)

• Can also be built by players using snowballs:
• Crouch and drop a snowball to stack them into a small snowman
• Keep feeding it snowballs until it reaches its final form (20 stacks by default)
• Hiding mechanic:
• Players can hide inside a snowman
• To exit, press the secondary interaction key, which makes the snowman explode
• If hidden during a chase, the enemy will approach the snowman
• If the enemy collides with it while a player is inside, the snowman explodes, slowing the enemy and giving the player time to escape
• If entered unnoticed, the hidden player becomes undetectable
• Hitting a snowman destroys it, leaving behind a Snow Pile

Ice Zone

Description

A new hazard that can spawn both indoors and outdoors (depending on configuration)

• Players slide and skid when they are inside the ice zone
• If a player falls (by jumping or not) while in the ice zone, they lose all their stamina
• Enemies gain increased speed when inside the ice zone (50% movement speed bonus)

Frostbite

Description

A brand-new enemy that spawns outdoors

• Detects players at a distance and throws frostballs at them
• If the projectile hits a player or an enemy directly, it explodes and applies the FROST status effect
• The projectile can bounce 0 to 2 times off walls or the ground, and explodes on its final bounce, releasing a cloud of smoke that inflicts FROST to players who touch it
• The projectile can also be reflected with a shovel if timed correctly. The reflected projectile can hit the Frostbite
• FROST status effect:
• Can affect player and enemies
• Heavily slows the target
• Deals 10 damage over 10 seconds by default
• If the targeted player is affected by the FROST status effect, the Frostbite will continue moving toward them
• Collision: kills or damages the player (configurable)
• Immunities: cannot be killed by normal attacks (configurable). Instead:
• Feeding it snowballs makes it stronger (faster and deadlier). After 10 snowballs by default, it explodes
• If it collides with a snowman hiding a player, it reacts the same way as when hit with a snowball
• Reflecting its own snowball with a shovel instantly kills it (requires hitting the frostball mid-air)
• Rewards:
• Killed normally → spawns a Snow Pile
• Killed with a frostball → drops the Snowgun with a random addon (Glacial Decoy/Glacial Ball)

Fake Snowman

Description

A deceptive hazard. From a distance, it looks like a normal snowman

• When approached too closely or destroyed with a snowball, it spawns a Frostbite with a jumpscare sound (can be deactivated)
• Fake Snowmen spawn alongside real ones at the start of the day, indoors or outdoors
• They do not contribute to the moon’s global power level

Snowgun

Description

A new item dropped by Frostbite when defeated with its own snowball

• Contains 20 snowballs by default
• Fires them much farther than by hand
• Can be reloaded at Snow Piles
• Comes with the Frost Mark addon

Addon Ability (requires Addon Fusion to be installed)

• Projects a ground marker following the player's aim
• Reactivate to confirm the position
• Applies Frost to targets in the area:
• Deals damage over 10 seconds
• Strongly slows aff
