The first text gets cut off by my screen. What's it supposed to say?

May I please play the game? :o

May I please play it? ^n^

I wanna play your Snowboy game :(

Very nice demo! :D

Thanks! I was so mystified as to what this file was supposed to be. I can't believe I only just today thought to check the jsm page ^^;

Where's Filomena 1?

PC build doesn't start when I click :( You also spawn inside the ground and mouselook doesn't work

I wanna play D:

Um... How do I get the game?

This game looks like it could be really great, but... the enemies take a really long time to defeat. It's like you'd be better off just taking the hit to get rid of 'em rather than spending health on blasting them :\

Edit: Actually I noticed that the great big lava monsters have pretty reasonable health (1 second of blasting to kill), it's the basic fire monster that are damage sponges (2 seconds of blasting to kill). I suggest flipping these traits around. Here's why:

The common fire monsters deal damage equal to about 2 seconds of ice-blasting, so encourage the player to take initiative by having it take 1 second of sustained freezing to kill a fire monster, rewarding players with 1 second of saved health for successfully defeating them compared to getting hit instead.

The rarer lava monsters are more dangerous in theory than the fire monsters, as they can hurt the player without getting killed theirself. This makes them more important to take out, and so sticking these guys with 2 seconds worth of health would be more justified; though it may be costly to freeze 'em now, it saves a lot of potential trouble down the road.

I wanna play :(

Also: Maybe a jump? There's some instances where a penguin will be sliding through the only way through a rock formation, meaning death is unavoidable. This wouldn't an issue if you could jump in order to hop over sliding penguins. It would also give you another tool to deal with those short, flat stone slabs...

The strafing is a bit too fast; it keeps you from positioning yourself with the precision needed to get through some of the trickier rock formations. Even the lightest tap of a key results in an overadjustment, and your ice cube annoyingly ends up wiggling back and forth past the position you need, until you crash into the rocks.

 But then again, the fast movement is handy for dodging the penguins...

Maybe you could have it where strafing is slower when "S" is being held or something? That way you have speed when you need it and precision when you need it.

Edit: I also noticed the score doesn't reset to 0 between runs...

Ah, well. There's always after, right?

D'awww the snowlings are SO CUTE <3 <3 <3

How do you start the game?

Neat game, but the first level won't complete even after I got all (surviving) student bunnies to the burrow :\

Is this game in a state where it can be played from start to finish?

What about card? I've bought plenty of games here with card.

Yeah! Thanks for reading my review by the way, and thanks even more for corresponding!

Oooh! New update dropped last month! :o What's new?

Also, this game wouldn't happen to be inspired by the 'doghouse bug' of Link's Awakening that takes you to a boundless, glitchy dungeon whose properties differ based on your bodycount that playsession, would it? :P

Yeah, what Kee said! In fact, Kee's got a Discord you can join if you wanna stay tuned for all the latest scoops on her games and interact with the Keemmunity! :D

Aw man, only 2 levels? I was having fun :(

Nice game! But uh, just so you know... your website's down ^^;

Ditto. Iqmkjp is pretty much right on the money here.

You should add some of this to the game page description! It's important stuff to know! :O

Go right ahead 👍

Oh, er... the download button links to the original build from 2016 ^^; What about the 2023 build mentioned in "More information?"

Yoooo, this thing got updated last year? :O Niiice! Gonna have to give the new version a try! :D

Bold of you to assume I bit anyone

Two of them are named the same thing, which one is 0.2?

Holy... this is some legit stuff right here. As far as Itch prototypes go, this thing could go places. Heck, I'd pay for a finished version of this game! How do I give something more than 5 stars?

Holy cow! This is some good stuff right here! Take my 5-stars! :D I'm also excited to see you "plan to add more," even if it's taking awhile. I anticipate seeing this game 'shine' even more!

Ay, Reverse Pac-Man! Now that's a nifty concept and makes for some mighty fun gameplay! Great game! :D

Nice game, but why is the ice cube so heavy? He falls like he's made of cement instead of ice XD Not only is it a bit nonsensical, but it makes it extremely hard to time a double jump, and wall jumps are almost completely unusable.

I really like the animation style though, and it's a neat little platformer aside from the above issue. Would be a 4/5, but the physics brings it down to a 3.5/5. Since we can't do fractional stars however, I'll go ahead and round up to a 4 ;)

Interesting little diversion. Do you have any advice for what to do if being chased?

Neat. How's it going by the way?

Oh, one thing -- It seems like the .exe download is only the jam build. Do you think you could pretty-please put the post-jam build (the 1/11/20 one the browser version uses) in the downloads? :o
