This product is an Early Access version.

A product's description or pricing may change depending on the development updates made by its creator.

Q. Why Early Access?

A. This game lives or dies on how it feels in the hands and how its difficulty ramps up. Where players get stuck, and what feels unfair rather than merely hard, is something only players can tell us. Rather than finishing it on our own and calling it done, we would like to complete it together with your feedback.


Q. Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

A. About one month. The game is already playable from start to finish, so this period is for polishing based on feedback, not for building missing systems. If more work turns out to be needed than expected, we would rather extend the period than rush the release.


Q. How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

A. We plan to add new content such as more snowmen and patterns and an expanded collection. We will also retune the difficulty curve and the time · judgement values based on player feedback, and we are considering more achievements, score competition, and a user skin system. The list and its priorities will follow the feedback we get during Early Access.


Q. Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

A. We do not expect it to change much. Players who buy in early should not be penalized for it, so the plan is to keep the current price after the full release. If a small adjustment becomes necessary, we will announce it in advance.


Q. How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

A. The Steam community hub and discussion boards, along with our Discord community, are our main channels.


· Bug reports, balance opinions and feature suggestions are welcome any time

· When opinions split, such as on difficulty or new content, we ask players before deciding

· Every update post says which feedback it acted on


We may not be able to reply to everything, but we read all of it.

Product Description

IntroduceTex-Englisht1.png


Smash the snowmen with a cigarette stuck in them!


GanePlay2.gif


Break Snowman is a high-speed arcade game where you clear a line of incoming snowmen using just three keys.

It is not a rhythm game. There is no beat to follow, just a score attack where sharp eyes and fast reflexes are everything.


IntroduceTex-Englisht2.png


Someone has been sticking cigarettes into the snowmen. Break them!

Leave them be and they might pick up a bad habit.


DescriptionImage1.pngYou are already dead.

Most snowmen have a cigarette stuck in them. Smash those with the key that matches their position.

But cute snowmen without a cigarette are mixed into the line.


DescriptionImage2.pngAdorable little snowman friends


Those must not be broken. Press the opposite key to let them pass by untouched.

The moment your hand moves out of habit, your combo breaks and your pain meter climbs. Watch closely, then smash!



The Clock Never Stops


Clearing a line buys you time, and every mistake costs you some.

On top of that, the timer itself keeps speeding up with every wave.

Ten wrong keys and your run is over.


Wave by wave the world shifts through day → dawn → night,

and a single line grows from 10 snowmen up to 80.



Reach the Ending


Hit the target score and the ending is waiting.

On the result screen, see how your run is graded from F to SSS.

Once you have seen the ending, Endless Mode opens up, with no finish line at all.


Rebindable keys, resolution · brightness · volume options, a tutorial on your first play,

and a snowman collection. Available in both Korean and English.


The rules take 30 seconds to learn. Your hands will need a little longer.
