Nice idea but has some control issues. Needs some explanation of what the controls are and define the goal better. 

Developer

I see, Im currently working on a tutorial level to better explain the objective and the controls and have already reworked how the controls work behind the scenes.
Thanks for the feedback and giving it a try!

Cute game! nice 2d art style I also made a snowball rolling game, haha.


Developer

Thanks for giving it a try! :D

Guess we had pretty similar ideas xD

Submitted

Love the concept and had a great time playing this! Would love to have some music with the game, but besides that it was a great time! 

Developer

I do plan to add ambience and/or background music to the game after the jam

Thanks for the feedback and giving it a try! :D

It took me a while to figure out the controls but it's a nice game.

Developer

I hope the instructions in the description helped you
Thanks for playing and providing feedback! :D

Really *cool* game. Needs a little bit more polish but even now it is quite enjoyable to play. Good job!

I intend to continue work on this after the jam!
Thanks for giving it a try! :D

It have the potential to become a really cool loop game, but I fell like it need something to help to understand where and when jump for getting higher, maybe with some sfx or some cool particle effects, dunno. Btw it is a very cool idea!

Developer

I really wanted to add a QTE, a minimap to show the distance between the player and the terrain to better time the scrolls or just some kind of indication to prepare the player but I couldnt add that in time, I really wanna make this game atleast a bit more playable if not work on it more!
Thanks for trying it out! :D

It was quite difficult to control but I thought the theme was pretty good. Scaling the map up and down to grow is also a nice addition!

Developer(+1)

I see, I do want to add better instructions in the game itself that teach the way of playing and Ill add it after the voting phase

But I hope the instructions in the description helped :D

Thanks alot for trying it out!

Nice concept, but I couldn't really figure out how to accomplish the goals. The snowball and scaling fit the theme very nicely!

Developer(+1)

I realised I forgot to add instructions to the page :sigh: I wanted to add instructions in the game itself but due to time issues I couldnt add them

I added the instructions on the page now so I hope it feels easier to play!
Thanks for the review and for playing! :D

Thanks for the feedback! I'll play the game once more after reading the instructions :)
