Fun, fluid and easy to get into! It leans a little away from the cosy autumn feel and into the frantic winter feel but that doesn't make it any less fun; I liked the diversity in the enemies as the rounds progressed.

The intro was really pretty and the gameplay was fun. Shop system is not very obvious though.
Good job !

THOSE DANG ICE SPIKES!!! Very chill defense game, I loved the movement it felt very fluid and all of the upgrades felt impactful.

The dragon controls were excellent. The movement was really smooth. Felt great to evade the ice bullets. The upgrades were all worthwhile. Art/music are really good too. Nice game. Had fun! Didn't find it very cozy, however. I was on the edge of my seat.

looks really polish. I love it. one suggestion is it would be a lot cooler if player can move and fire at the same time.

it is possible - just use both left mouse and right mouse buttons :)

Great game! It really catchy to play and replay,  nice graphic with animations and sound is satisfying and juicy. Good job!

Developer

I love the overall gameplay of this game. The upgrade system is an amazing system to include in the game since it works and I gain XP from killing the bugs and destroying the ice crystals. I love the audio with the sound effects and music too. All types of cozy fall vibes were shown throughout my playthrough of the game.

I really enjoyed the gameplay, flying on the dragon and burning all the icy creatures was very fun. Nice visuals.

I love the backstory and concept of the game! I had so much fun :) Controlling was a bit tricky for me, though—moving and shooting wasn’t easy, so I died a lot! (I was playing on a touchpad, lol)

Developer(+1)

Playing on touchpad sounds like a real challenge! Creating input agnostic controls during a gamejam is not always easy😅

Nice! I think the cutscene in the start was very cool and the simplicity of it is somehow inspiring! The simple tutorial is also very good

Thanks for playing!

Lovely game, The art is gorgeous, especially the lil backstory sequence. I'd be nice if the ice nests played through an animation as you melted them, and had a visual clue rather than text indicating that they're shielded. I think there should be something explaining if the rounds are endless or finite. Also less or smaller ui could be good.
Yall did very well, rock on.

Thanks for the kind words! And I appreciate the feedback. Polishing certain interactions and animations was mostly time constrained, the pressure was real!
