A good entry for the jam, I like the mechanic of balancing the ice bergs. The only other thoughts I had was that the camera field of view should be bigger so that you can see where you are jumping. It's hard to tell where you have to land until you are already falling. I also was not a big fan of the music for this genre, I think something a bit more light-hearted would have fit a bit better.

None the less, great work on a good entry!  Kudos :)

Hey, thanks for playing and for the comment! :D

About the camera, with that field of view, the player blindly jumps the very first platform, but that's the only blind jump really, so I thought it wouldn't be a problem.. Maybe no blind jumps at all should be the right call.. hahahha

I think you're completely right about the music! That's the first music I made and just stick with it for lack of time. Next time I'll think better about it. ;)

Thanks again! =]

There are some some more blind jumps after the first checkpoint. And i had problems with the moving platforms that didn't move the player. Otherwise good entry!

Cool! Thanks for playing and commenting!

The mechanic of platforms moving without moving the player with them is intentional, I was trying to simulate ice mechanics. Perhaps I should add a little friction to this movement... =]
