Game Description
I made a simple vertical platformer about a Jotnarr, a norse monster that wants to devour everything but must first find his way back to midgard by using his ability to freeze the world around him

Hey nice work gamer!
Fun platformer with nice graphics and tunes. The freeze works well however I missed jumps often so found myself waiting for the bar to refill a bunch haha well done!
This one's interesting. The ability to freeze things introduces puzzle elements into what would otherwise be a pretty normal platformer, because you need to think about how to "dimension hop" between the frozen and unfrozen world states to get to where you need to go. I will say though, the freeze meter kind of runs against the spirit of a puzzler. Limiting the amount of time you can freeze platforms for forces you to think quickly, limiting the amount of time you can use to strategize deeply (although if that's what you want, that may not be a bad thing).
That said, take that with a grain of salt. I wasn't actually able to beat the game (I got stuck on this jump), so I might just be bad at platformers.
Cute platformer. Good use of the freeze theme to mix up the platforms.
A nice platformer! The freeze mechanic was cool as well as the small environment changes. Well done!
Fantastic 2d platformer. Really enjoyed exploring the freeze ability and the multi jump mechanic is REALLY fun! Great job all around!
The game space freezing is a really cool mechanic! I must confess that I lack the skills to keep track of the ability cooldown bars lol
I think that you could improve the ability cooldown at a initial phase of the game because players like me who don't have much skill need to keep trying again and again, I mean, I kept falling from the high platforms and then I needed to wait until the freeze ability could recharge.
But I think that you nailed it! Again, really cool mechanics!
Thanks for the feedback! I am not happy with the state of that cool down either I wish I had more time to fine tune it but this is definitely a project I'll probably mess with some more
