Use of the limitation
The player plays as Snowball, - a character who grows in size as he moves through the snow. Increasing the size allows you to throw projectiles and make jerks, losing part of your mass. This is the only ability that allows the player to move, so it creates some difficulties and "fun situations" :D
Cookies eaten
All the past gamejams I didn't eat cookies, but this time I made an exception. I love oatmeal cookies! :P

I see what you're going for, and I like the idea a lot, but I had such a hard time getting past the first stair case, I don't know for sure what was going on, but I think you did the logic in the process loop without using delta, so when my browser was running at below 30 fps I couldn't jump at all.
Very nice game with beautiful pixel art
i like the story and the limitation (gives me agar.io vibes lol), but i couldn't even get through the tutorial level haha, might be me being dumb or maybe a little difficult
It's frustrating, but I really liked the music and the art for it. Good job!
Great idea and the art is very good, it's very frustrating, but for the message at the end I guess that's the idea, although I think some places need more space to accumulate snow, cuz there're some spots where grow isn't hard, just slow. Also I would liked to have a preview of the trajectory, but this depends of the design choices, great game!
Beautiful game. 9/10. Why 9/10? Cuz its too hard to get bigger. That's just me being nitpicky cuz there isn't any big issues though. Great job!
Very nice presentation and game. Simple but effective concept, it helps the game stand out. I also liked the intro, it really sets the mood before the puzzling platformer takes place.
Frustrating, but really fun. Art style and music are great. Nice use of limitation.
That was a surprisingly fun game, I never played a game with the snowball mechanic like that before and I would like to see if anything else becomes of this.
