Channel F stuff

I got to thinking there is no Channel F game that is holiday themed. I wondered why. Two of its colors in its palette are red and green, so it would be perfect. Then I got to coding. The result is a title screen to a new holiday game about a snowman. I hope I can get this done in time for the holidays. Here is a screenshot:

At first I was going to make the snowman green and call it Snomwan, but then I got to thinking if I can display white, then why not make a white snowman on a blue background? So I did. Unfortunately I have no idea where I am going with this. I don't know what the snowman is going to do. Perhaps I can make an Astrosmash clone out of it. Have the snowman shoot down presents Santa drops and spinners. Perhaps I can make a Moon Patrol clone like I was going to do with the Odyssey 2.

I bought carts #8 and #16 on eBay. I bought a better condition box for Bowling (along with a manual) so now I'll have 2 Bowling carts. I decided to take a break from the Casino VB game I was making since I can't really show it to the people who would be the most interested in seeing it.

Hm, is there a Combat / Outlaw type of game on the Channel F? I can't recall and am too tired to look it up right now. I was thinking about a two player (or vs computer) snowball fight where the snowmen get bigger and bigger when hit by snowballs until they can't move anymore and fall over. Possibly I'm asking too much again.

 

If not Outlaw, perhaps Artillery Duel where the snowmen are on the ground lobbing snowballs and you get to set the angle and speed.
