Oh, I mistakenly thought you were using it in the main menu. As such, my prior posts about init can be ignored.
Having said that, I decided to take a look myself and it works just fine for me.

EDIT:
I deleted the code myself and removed "show snow", but forgot to remove the init where I defined snow and got the same error, so I think maybe you didn't copy the code to your project? Its not included with Ren'Py by default so you need to add it to a file somewhere.

Maybe try copying it again just to be sure:

The best place to paste it would probably be in its own file called snoweffect.rpy or something
