Snowball Earth - Ronimo's cancelled Wii game

Snowball Earth - Ronimo's cancelled Wii game

The project that melted

Here's something you might not know. Swords & Soldiers developer Ronimo Games were working on a full disc game for Nintendo Wii, until they had to shelve it in 2008 due to lack of funding.

If the artwork, gameplay style and tediously generic music remind of you De Blob, that's because Ronimo were actually the team behind the first version of De Blob on PC (freeware) before THQ got involved.

An official demo of Snowball Earth has been released, if you'd like to give it a try here's the torrent:

Looks ok and all, but with de blob already out there, do we need this? It looks very similar.

And yeah that music makes me want to pierce my eardrums. Or click the mute button. Either way.

It might have turned out alright, but "snowball earth" is not a good name.
