This is a very polished and very well-implemented game.
I liked it and had fun, but I have the feeling that the pace is a bit too slow for my taste, and I dont think the problem was the freezing mechanic.
It feels that the enemies and the player have too much health (or not enough damage). Especially the snow thrower. Making the gameplay loop slow and not so dynamic.
These critics are regarding balancing, but the game itself is great, one of the best I played in this jam 😃
