Art and music is beautiful! The gameplay, although repetitive, is a great concept. Would love to see the extra ideas added in a post-jam update if you do decide to keep working on it!

Really cute game! I loved the expression when dying :) The puzzles are nicely designed but I felt that they could be a little clearer. Nevertheless, it may have been my incompetence.

Temple of KashtekiAwesome game! I was pouring some water next to a wall. It glitched me out lol. Collisions on the ground are a bit confusing since the snow doesn't act as a colliding object so it gets confusing. Veryyy cute game though!

Squanum's little adventureReally liking the presentation and animations. Satisfying and intuitive. Thinking a couple steps ahead for making paths but not blocking others was interesting. I finished a level and fell into a blank scene so I think I won?

Seabound ReboundThe penguin was so adorable! I love the way it tip toed around. I liked the water and ice mechanics! I thiiiink the game broke after completing the third level. The screen went blue. This was a really great puzzle game all around! Nice job to all!

City LimitsI liked the jumping and water pumping animation! The gameplay with the ice was interesting and the ending with the fish was a fun addition to the theme of the world.

Solarpunk MeiThank you for the game!
Loved the idea, but was really frustrated by some of the levels. Figuring out the level was fun, but then actually executing it was somewhat tedious. The third level broke me after I accidentally fell onto the spikes after spending 5 minutes going back and force and laying those damn ice blocks.
The music is wonderfully eery and sinister, despite innocent subject matter, which I've found somewhat funny too :)

Spring in Lviv during the warFirst off, I'm a sucker for an interactive title screen, so I loved that bit. I had a lot of fun with this one, I particularly enjoyed how intuitive everything was! For example, seeing the water pump and the bucket next to each other let me connect the dots myself, and it made sense that pouring the water out onto the ice made it freeze into a block of ice. Great work here!:)

Shrine of CardsThe great title screen idea was totally my teammate's! What made it out there is just shy of what was intended, hah. We wanted you to be on a bit of a goofy chase for your fish dinner... it definitely morphed a bit hahah. That's how it goes sometimes when you overscope and underplan a bit like I did. I'm glad you enjoyed what we put together!
The music is really good, but it feels so intense compared to my happy little penguin haha.
I love the idea here - I would love to see a longer version with more opportunities to see all the moving parts - faucets, buckets, ice blocks, etc.

Bounty of the Pumpkin PlanetI battled with "ominous arctic" and "happy arctic" the whole jam! Have another song that's much happier, but it's kind of got a "menu music" vibe and I didn't think it would fit in a level. Then shifting from that happy tune to the intense one was super weird, so we settled on the one piece of music that felt more like a level tune. There's a lot I didn't get to implement due to unexpected hurdles but yeah, I'm in the same boat, want to see the idea fully realized!
the game is great and got a solid rating just ran into two issues first one being on level 1 when I completed level 1 it took me to a black screen that didn't transition to the next level , and other being on level 2 , where I accidently added an ice cube over that walrus he got stuck in place its not really game breaking but still worth mentioning other than that I liked the game...the platforming needs some work but its fine by me , the art style is very nice and charming , the music is decent and overall gameplay is fun , well done!
