About

Chaos at the headquarters of the video game organization, UPIXO: the villain, El Pix, has stolen some important and historically valuable artifacts of video game history from the archive.
Help Chubby retrieve all the artifacts from El Pix's icy realm of Snowdriftland!

Mission in Snowdriftland is unique in its concept: Play it like a traditional Advent calendar, and select a level every day and let Chubby guide you through the cold winter days. Or play it like a classic platformer - any time you want.

Mission in Snowdriftland offers the right gaming experience for all players: younger and less experienced gamers can get off to a quick and easy start and jump right in to start searching for the artifacts, while core gamers will face a cool challenge as they collect all snowflakes per level.

Prepare to confront some wacky enemies like penguins in squirrel costumes, polar bear joggers listening to music, flaming fire bumblebees and many more.

Compete against four Minibosses, the subordinates of El Pix, who are standing in your way after every world. Defeat them to prove that you can face the big boss himself!

Explore Secret Areas containing strange Glitch Pixels in every level. Collect them all to solve the secret behind the odd Pixel Mass found in the newly discovered Hole!

Various, entertaining levels in 4 different Worlds
Giant (truly giant!) unlockable Bonus Level
Bizarre unlockable Glitch Level
Challenging final boss fight against the villainous "El Pix"
Mini boss battles in each world
Secret areas
Pixel art
Retro music
Full controller support

This is a small, but remarkably polished update of an old Flash game that's perfect for the holidays, or really any time you're in a winter-y mood. It was originally presented as an online advent calendar on Nintendo's website with one level unlocked per day leading up to Christmas, but now it's a standalone title that's fully playable offline with (almost) all references to Nintendo removed. Much like a proper retro game, it's surprisingly, almost [i]shockingly[/i] tough under its cute facade. It isn't unreasonably hard; you get infinite retries, your HP is upgradeable, and the levels are all bite-sized romps so restarting them isn't a big deal, but it'll give even the most seasoned platforming pros a workout. If you collect all of the Snowflakes in every level, you'll unlock a gauntlet of a final bonus level that's [i]easily[/i] the longest in the game, which will really test your mastery and endurance. Give it a try if you're a platforming fan looking for a festive time!
Anfangs war das spiel noch gut, doch ab den Cave leveln wurde das spiel so unfair. Man ist am rätseln wie man die glitch einsamelt, es gibt eine millionen gegener und der absolute höhepunkt wo ich endgültig das spiel weggeschmissen habe ist das bonus lvl was total unnötig und übertrieben ist. es sind einfach alle gegner und gebiete nochmal in einem. Nach dem normalen spiel hätte es das nicht mehr gebraucht. Ich wollte eigententlich 100% machen und hänge wegen den letzten 2 unnötigen lvln jetzt bei 95% fest, aber wenn ein spiel mich der art aggresiv macht und es 0 spaß macht lösche ich es lieber und spiele was anderes. Verstehe nicht was der entwickler sich bei den letzten lvln gedacht hat. Sehr schade. Für ober profis ist das spiel sicher was. Für normalos wird das spiel zum ende hin sehr frustfoll. Somit kann ich es nur bedingt empfehlen. Von mir aus hat es eigentlich ein neutral verdient, da es das bei steam aber nicht gibt muss ich leider negativ bewerten
Mission in Snowdriftland hat mich ehrlich überrascht. Das Ding wirkt zuerst wie ein kleines Winter-Jump’n’Run, aber sobald du drin bist, packt es dich sofort. Die Steuerung fühlt sich direkt gut an, nichts schwammig, nichts nervig. Du rennst los und denkst dir: „Okay, das macht einfach Bock.“ Die Level sind genau richtig aufgebaut: kurz genug, um mal eben reinzuspringen, aber abwechslungsreich genug, dass du immer noch eins spielen willst. Der Schneelook ist super stimmig, nicht kitschig, sondern richtig cozy. Und ja, die Musik bleibt hängen – im positiven Sinn. Was das Ganze stark macht: Es gibt keinen Müll, der dich rausreißt. Kein Grinding, keine künstliche Streckung. Einfach ein flüssiges, charmantes Spiel, das dich ständig belohnt, weiterzuspielen. Wenn du etwas willst, das direkt Spaß macht und sich anfühlt wie ein kleiner Wintertrip voller Nostalgie, dann liefert Mission in Snowdriftland genau das.
Bonus levels aside, I think the platforming is both well-balanced and rewarding!
good game, very silly
its pretty difficult at times for a platformer, but once i got it down, i really enjoyed myself its fun, charming, and though its nothing revolutionary, i like what it does kinda sad its a bit short, though
good
Calendar-based platformers that I know of: This and Leap Day
A pretty fun platformer
the perfect christmas gift for somebody who really likes nintendo ds's and wii's. aswell as christmas. CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
