Fun little concept, I really liked the conversation with the snowman and the warm glow of the sunlight + snow physics were nice. I did accidentally quit the game twice because I was running after my ball and flew off the map at the exit part haha. But I enjoyed it!

In retrospect, that was not the smartest design choice by me; sorry that the game essentially kicked you twice, though it is kind of hilarious :)

Thanks for playing and the feedback. More importantly, thanks for hosting the jam; it was a great experience!

The association of snowman builders!

I like how the snow behaves and that you really leave tracks in it.
The pink light tone fits very well :)

Unfortunately, my snowballs didn't get any bigger.
I tried to push them in front of me and dragged them across the snow with G. Unfortunately it didn't work.

Developer

Aye, fellow snowman builder! You should first roll the snowballs around, simply by pushing them. Once they are the size you would like, you can pick them up with G, and they won't grow anymore. Then G again to let them go. Hope it works out; thanks for playing and the kind words!

The snow feels really great; it’s surprisingly fun. It needs a bit of refinement, and I couldn’t figure out how to rotate the cool stuff.

Developer(+1)

There unfortunately wasn't a way to rotate the cool stuff due to time. Thanks for playing and the kind feedback!

I got a little confused with the controls but I liked the game. I was able to make a big snowman :)

Developer(+1)

Yeah, I was far from satisfied with the controls, but honestly given my current skills and the time, I am just happy I managed to finish the game. Thank you for playing!

Fun, but this kills my gpu. It might be an emulation issue though.

Developer

It could be, though the performance is quite bad nonetheless, I unfortunately did not have much time for optimization. Thanks for playing and the comment!
