Snowballets
Bullets grow in size and damage as they travel. These bullets draw ambient bullet particles from the Gungeon's atmosphere, steadily increasing in size. Bullet Kin have been seen stacking them for fun. Arguments frequently break out over the sole scarf in the Gungeon.

Description
Snowballets is a passive item and a bullet upgrade .
Effects
- Bullets increase in size and damage as they travel.
- Damage Increase: Bullets gain 2.5% additional damage for every tile they travel.
- Size Increase: Bullets grow by 10% of their original size for every tile they travel.
- The damage increase cannot exceed 250%, no matter how far the bullet flies.
Synergies
If the player has 
A.W.P. , it turns orange and white, deals 62.5% more damage, and its shots are guaranteed to freeze enemies.
If the player has 
Cold 45 or 
Ice Breaker , the size of their shots is significantly increased, and the amount of damage they gain as they travel is increased.
If the player has 
Snowballer , it fires multiple snowballs at once in a shotgun spread with lowered rate of fire.
Notes
- 150% Damage is reached with 20 tiles; Max damage is reached at 60 tiles or greater.
- The effect of Snowballets almost entirely cancels out the downside of
Stout Bullets .
- With
Angry Bullets , bullets will continue to grow when deflected off an enemy.
- Works well with
Remote Bullets , as bullets can be kept in the air for longer to accumulate damage.
Snowballets also has an interesting effect when it is applied to weapons that summon friendlies or fire them as a projectile, causing them to grow in size and damage, essentially granting them the Remote Bullets 'buff' above. The effected guns are:
Sharks fired from 
Compressed Air Tank , Tigers fired from 
Bait Launcher , 
Mr. Accretion Jr. 's orbiting planets, the duck fired by 
Light Gun , Bees from 
Bee Hive , & Beadies summoned by 
Eye of the Beholster .
- Followers that inherit bullet upgrades such as
Ser Junkan 's Angelic Knight form or the Phoenix follower granted by the Phoenix Up synergy have the potential to one-shot bosses with Snowballets, seemingly because they can fire while the boss intro cutscene is playing.
- If duplicates of this item are somehow obtained, further increases the damage dealt and the speed at which bullets increases in size as they travel, up to a maximum of 4 duplicates at which the bullets will reach their maximum size (when shot from the furthest distance).
Trivia
- The item's name and primary function is a reference to the popular trope of snowballs increasing in size, often to huge snow boulders, when rolling down a hill.
- The "sole scarf in the Gungeon" mentioned to in the description might refer to the
Bloodied Scarf , as it is the only item called a scarf in the game.
