Last year, Ric Turner scored a huge viral video hit with his rhythm game Christmas lights display, Christmas Lights Hero. This year, Turner is back again with a new interactive Christmas display. Rather than returning to the rhythm genre, Turner is taking his talents to the arcade sphere, replicating those old life-sized motorcycle and car-steering games with Snowball Blaster, an interactive Christmas lights game.
The story of the game is simple: you’re trying to save Christmas by hopping on Santa’s training sleigh and beating the snowball attacks of Abdominal Snowman against Santa and his cousin Frothy the Snowman. If you successfully beat the challenge of the snowballs, you get a victory light show. The only problem is nobody’s beaten the game yet!
Snowball Blaster features a staggering 128 channels of Light-o-Rama. The game music and narration broadcasts on a FM channel to avoid annoying the neighbors (and to help provide entertainment for passing cars). It’s pretty awesome, isn’t it?
