I thought the sound and music went really far here! I made it to wave 7 before I was overcome, but I really liked the theme of it. I really enjoyed the arcade feel and the visuals, too. Great work!

Don't Touch Me, I'm On FireCool game! Who knew snow-plowing could be this entertaining? Well polished game, the only thing I would change is that when jumping up on a platform, if a snowball hits your head it really slows your jump speed which slows down the pace a bit. But it is a really minor flaw!
Very well done!

Space Time!One of the better entries I've seen! The movement is satisfying, the sound effects are really cool and the background music fills in the silence. The game's gimmick is incredibly simple, but really cool. The tutorial text is really well handled - I know what I'm doing and it's not ugly, so that's even better!
You absolutelly nailed the snawfall effect - I felt colder just looking at it! I love the way the snow piles up over time - I lost because there were so many layers, they covered the gas station entirely! (round 11). You could turn the difficulty up a fair bit though - maybe if there's too much snow on the platforms you loose, or something of the sort? As much as the plowing was fun, the only thing stopping me from reaching round 9999 was my patience.

Slash n' DashLove the game! Came for the visuals, and got addicted with the gameplay! I really loved the plow truck animations.
The music really got me anxious XD.
It's really polished and well made. Best of luck in the jam!
Also, if you could check my entry, that would be super great :)
Cheers!

Less distraction, more focus!What a hilarious and cute little game! I didn't play for too long but for the short time I was in, it was such a nice experience!
My biggest loves of this game is the simplistic music, and sound design you have in the game. The art direction is simple and works well. The game loop is quite simple and works good! Plow the snow to get money, use money to refill yourself. Sustain.
I think you should look into adding obstacles that attempt to break the loop, that will add some tension. Such as obstacles that will drain your fuel?
My biggest gripes was it can be difficult to plow snow directly beneath you. I think it should be fine to have the tractor move above the snow but consider a way to intentionally dig beneath you to plow better.

+ Really simple concept but gets tough as soon as you realise you are burying your fuel pump and bank!
+ Chilled music
+ Great mechanics
- Maybe add some more polish to the UI?
