Hi, FittyYen here doing an update since Grash's hands are full. I'm the guy who designed the mod and is doing some mapping so I do actually add to the mod instead of bossing the others around.

Posted some new media (mostly done by Agent), which is long over due since it's been a very long time since the last update. The newly added media would be a render of the mod's SlingShot, the current title screen, a Cartoon that we're thinking of turning into the new loading screen, and lastly some new hands that will be throwing the snowballs. 

I'm going to also use this update to shed some light on the "Rock, paper, scissors weapon balance system between snowballs, vacuum cleaners, and marbles". As hinted at earlier there are only going to be three weapons in Snowball: Source, snowballs, a slingshot which will fire marbles and a vacum cleaner (modified gravity gun). The vacum cleaner can grab snowballs thrown at you to form a giant, exploding snowballs. The slingshot can fire marbles that don't harm players, but can cause the giant snowballs, held by the vacum, to prematurely explode in its owner's face. The regular hand thrown snowballs are too small for the slingshot's marbles to hit, but can be grabbed by the vacum. Snowballs beat Slingshot which beats the Vacum which beats the Snowballs. Hopefully we'll be able to put together some demonstation trailers to show them off.
