Wow this such a perfect take on the theme! I really appreciate the simple art, well done. The audio is fantastic, again well done.

Solar System AssemblyGreat job, this is really cute. The music and presentation are great. The controls are really intuitive too, especially for something as abstract as "building a snowman".

My Turing FriendSuch an awesome entry! I never expected a mechanic like the rolling to grow the snowballs to be so satisfying XD

Sharp AssemblyLoved the visuals! Reminded me a little bit of the christmas version of lemmings. The accompanying soundtrack gave it a lot of depth.
The controls were clear but for some reason a bit unintuitive for me, I kept making new snowballs when I meant to pick up the one I was rolling.
Really aesthetically pleasant entry all around!
Cute story and loved the mechanic. Wasn't sure how it ended, but it's a great well executed project! Here's a link to my playthrough... https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1716824445?t=02h45m43s
Since every little update you posted in discord I wanted to play your game. Thanks for this relaxing and cool experience. I like the concept of building yourself again and again and it fits so well with a snowman. It was so much fun to build the snow mans again and again. The level of polishing is very high. I like this little details you added e.g. when switching the snowman feels pretty cool with the visuals and the sound or when walking it has this slightly jumping. I think all in all the graphics, music, sound, control etc. went well. Good Job!!!
An interesting concept, I liked it! Very nice graphical presentation, and the music fit well. Nice job on the tutorial images, but I still got a bit confused at the start, trying to hold down while rolling a ball and also making new small snowballs accidentally which got in my way.

Widget Assembler SimulatorCute! I enjoyed it. only one suggestion I can offer is to maybe disable pressing down while holding a snowball. I kept accidentally dropping a tiny snowball and then putting the bottom of my snowman on top.

The Apocalypse AssemblyAmazing job! I really enjoy this, I think it strikes a solid balance between arcade style gameplay and chill vibes. The visuals are on point, very expressive and readable while also sticking to the 4-color palette! The music is melancholic and non-intrusive, so it really suits the game well in my opinion. If I had a critique for this game, I believe that there could potentially be room for sound effects for rolling the snowballs, and maybe more fitting ones for the tik-tok noise when you switch bodies/are about to melt. This is more of a nitpik more than anything though.
Amazing submission, 5-stars!
The concept is supra neat and the execution is crisp, truly amazing
