Loved the presentation of this game from the music to the artwork.  However, I did find it a bit confusing; the goal instruction may have been a little too simple.  Overall it was very original and nicely put together but was a bit hindered by its simple presentation and instructions.

Thanks for your feedback! I didn't want to explain the scoring too clearly to make the game more-casual and based on the snowflake result more than the score result. I also found it hard to express how the scoring works in the screen-space I gave myself for the instructions, so I went with "Create a Symmetrical Snowflake for a High Score!".

But if you're curious: the score is based on the total number of pieces in your snowflake (so surviving gives a higher score), but then you get points subtracted in each of the 6 sections depending on how much the section score differs from the average section score (higher reductions for worse 6-way symmetry).

One of the most original games I played in this jam! Well done!

Thank you! Lots of room to mash creativity with other objectives in games. Glad you enjoyed!
