Ice as the main powerup in the forest world

[Karkus476]

Since we intend to implement the air powerup in some of the icy-island levels (personally I think this would add some desired variety), I think we should introduce both of the other two powerups in the forest world; ice, and earth. Earth is already planned, and should be used in the few cave levels which are going to exist. Ice could be used in the rest of the forest world. Any thoughts? Possibly it could go back to fire for the ghost forest levels...

Too many in one world would mean that you would struggle to hang on to the one you want.

I would say that the ice flower doesn't has to be the main powerup for the forest world. The fire flower should be the "main" powerup of the game. The other ones should be used (after it was introduced for the first time) in those levels, in which they are useful.

@Rusty-Box Okay, I see what you mean. The ice flower could be used as the "secondary" for another world.

[Rusty-Box]

We might need more things which make the ice flower a bit more useful. Currently it only really useful for defeating live fire and the rotating flame.

@Rusty-Box I shall make a new issue about it.

I think ice flower could be used in an (under)water world where it would freeze enemies.

I'll close this for now. Divert ice flower ideas to SuperTux/supertux#552
