Idk, considering all you have to do is quickly turn around, I don't see it as an issue, not to mention the enemy snowmen always start of facing left while the real snowmen face right. Either way I'll see about making a difference, although one is also taller than the other and the faces differ a bit as well. Also, the very first one appears below you on a little ice bridge so you can see him move as you pass over him. I can't think of any valid excuse for having trouble with these enemies aside from "I wasn't paying attention at all".

I feel that I should also point out that if you are in the 4th world of a game and you are still blindly rushing through without thinking about what you are doing, you may be doing something wrong, because a LOT of games use stealth enemies that are way more subtle and dangerous than these slow moving snowmen (the fake doors from Kirby 3 comes to mind).


Sorry if I sound annoyed (just got off of a stressful day at work), but I'm also wondering how adding hats with subtle differences would help when you've managed to look past the current differences. I mean heck, if I make the differences more noticeable, then there pretty much no point in having the enemy in the first place since he's meant to trick the player by making them think he's a normal snowman.
