Use of the limitation
I interpreted the limitation through the rising temperature and melting ice floe. The player faces a strict time schedule as the planet warms up.

My stomach hurts, so I'd say enough :d

I wasn't able to play much because the background's colour and movement made me nauseous, but cool game! I like the commitment to having heavy controls and a clear message!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! It was a bit tricky to find a good animation for the water. Maybe I should have added an option to disable the water animation for those who prefer it that way. I'll definitely keep that in mind for future projects.

This game reminded me of club penguin's ski mini game haha one question, where does the penguin put the trash? I hope he doesnt eat them! lol

Developer(+1)

The penguin has a secret stash somewhere... he is definitely not eating the trash :D

Submitted

Love the art, I also like the random generation of the trash. End quote was a nice touch and I like how large the score counter is lol

Developer

Thanks a lot, glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

I love your art style, the penguin is cute!

Developer

Thank you! I'm already in the Christmas mood, so I had to give the penguin his Christmas scarf and hat :)

Love the penguin protagonist, concept was definitely there. The physics of the ice flow was certainly an interesting challenge to come through. Maybe leaning more into the ice floating physics could be fun: like some currents that show up that can help push you around , or perhaps something that can change your speed by shrinking/growing your platform. Either way loved the graphics style. Cool game!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I really like your idea about adding currents. I also had some more ideas for obstacles or power-ups to make the platform grow again and help you survive longer but I ran out of time.

Cool game!

Developer

Thank you :)

In my opinion the nice physics movement makes this game much interesting. Like the mechanics and that you took the opportunity to share a message. Art is cool. Nice experience

Developer

Thank you! I really appreciate the kind words about the art and mechanics.

This game requires a little bit of commitment. I found myself both enjoying and rueing the movement speed. Once you pick a direction you have to stick with it :). But it is a fun cozy game. Great message as well, but it does feel like the game comes across as "only for the message" when the level just ends as part of the "on a schedule" theme.

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed the game and its message! You're absolutely right I could have done more to integrate the limitation into the gameplay, thanks for the feedback.

Submitted

The concept is cool!  I like the penguin and the movement in the game; it makes sense it would be a little slide-like because you're on an iceberg, which is a super nice touch!

Developer

Thanks for playing and the feedback!

Not a very schedule-ish game, but the concept is nice!

Developer

Thanks! I see your point, it's more about running out of time than following a strict schedule, but I think they’re connected in a way. Otherwise, I might not have interpreted the limitation well.
