This was really fun! It got super frantic but felt very skill-dependant and I definitely got better everytime I played. I really enjoy the simplicity of the challenge and the freeze mechanic once I figured it out added a lot of strategy to it. 

I think the game is really fun as is, and if you wanted to polish it some more I'd only really be looking for a bit more sound and animation, even if it's just fades and bounces! I'd love to get a bit more reaction to plopping on a new scoop of icecream, giving the customer their cone, or the customers popping up in the first place. More idle movement on screen would make it feel more alive.

UI was all great and pretty self-explanatory. Really good job!

This game was awesome. My first two times I was getting upset at how fast I had to be lol. Those damn penguins were triggering my retail days ptsd.

Great job!

This is very similar to my game haha.

It was cool to experience this, I didn't realize I could use the freeze  button to my advantage at first and I was very stressed that my penguins were unhappy. After I figured it out though it was pretty easy to get a hang of!

You did a really good job with this! The freeze button completely changed how I played.  Good job following the theme!

I love the ice cream and penguin theme of this game. Once I realized I could use the freeze option fairly often, I enjoyed trying to see just how many penguins I could serve before the timer ended.

This is a short but cute game. Giving the penguins the correct ice cream while watching the time and using the freeze mechanic timely, provides a small challenge. Overall I was happy to see my customers happy. 

Thank you for this game :D
