Overall a nice experience; But I honestly couldnt quite figure out how well to control the character, especially with the jumps xD

Nice job.

I found it a bit hard to control and didn't quite understand how it fits the theme (I couldn't manage to get much further into the game than the initial stage, perhaps the scaling will be needed sometimes later?). The graphics is amazing, and I really like the retro kind of style.

Developer

the theme is mainly for the "scaling a mountain aspect" as in climbing it, the 2ndary implementation of the theme is with scaling the size of the character which affects its weigth, size and mass.... which helps the further high up you are

good art style, was a bit hard for me to control , great game overall

creative ice block man drag based platformer. Player being in ice is funny.

Developer (1 edit)

player being in ice also saves alot of time animating :D

Submitted(+1)

Very difficult game but it's well made! The art style is simple but not in a bad way, it looks good. I do sort of wish it was possible to launch while sliding on the ice instead of waiting to slow down (since waiting often leads to sliding off a ledge) but I suppose it only adds more to the seemingly intentional rage-inducing nature of the game. Also the intro with the hiker getting frozen immediately is hilarious!

Developer

was hoping to make a slightly longer intro with funny dialogue and reason for climbing mountain, but alas i ran out of time ;3

Nice work! :) I had a super hard time with the controls, but it might just be that I'm bad haha. The sound effects were a bit loud as well, but otherwise I had fun. The ice block jumpscare at the start made me laugh. Fun game overall!

Submitted(+1)

Woah! Really liked this game, the controls were simple but really good and the art style is *cool* and conveys the frozen vibe really well. Great game!

Submitted(+1)

Cool idea! Really wish you could redirect yourself while in the air. Also loved the style!

Submitted(+2)

What a "cool" game ;)

I already am not to good at platformers, so this might not be the game for me - I'm gonna have to pull a CupHead Reporter and admit I couldn't make it past the first jump lol

But it looks fun and the movement feels fluid (love the ice cube spinning animation too!) I am just too smooth brained for this lol

too hard for me, but very good visually and mechanically too (id appreciate more if i could play well tbh)

Submitted(+1)

Beautiful but brutal! Didn't get far. But as I've only beaten my own game once, I think that's a me problem.

absolutely love little getting over it-y experiences like this, very pretty visual design, perfectly aggravating control scheme. my only real criticism is that the sfx are fairly grating, but i understand that theyre better than nothing. overall really nice little game,  loved it.

Submitted(+1)

Love the visuals and design of the game, I wasn't able to make it to the top but I got pretty far

He told me it would make my day worse on the discord promo, why didn't I listen?

Developer(+1)

u probably thought I was joking... I was not ˙ᵕ˙

Immediately fell in love with the controls - so simple and silly, yet opens up so much gameplay potential.  With everything being slippery and icy it's both super fun to fling yourself and ripe for comedy as I completely fail to end up where i was trying to and lose progress.  Coupled with a simple, great artstyle and fun sounds. Nicely done!

Submitted(+1)

The art is really nice (:

Submitted(+1)

I could not get out the start :( Maybe make the start easier to ease people into the mechanics. Very pretty and smooth control.

Submitted(+1)

appealing art and fun mechanics, W game

Submitted(+1)

It's a shame that html builds cut out the cursor input, it taints the experience. Cute little rage game, very unforgiven and a very good entry. As a rage game it was very fun.

Developer

hi, thanks for playing; how is the cursor being cut out exactly?

Submitted(+1)

So, if I left click inside the game window and the cursor exits this window the input counts as released. If I could fullscreen the game that would be fixed.
