This is so cozy. I made 20 snowmen :D I enjoyed making giant snowbois and seeing the surprise at 15 snowmen. Such a great game, especially for a one person team. Good work!

Developer

Thanks for playing!, glad you went above and beyond to make 20 snowmen!

Submitted

It was so satisfying!

Submitted

The presentation is really great. The game has great cozy winter vibes. I love how the snowman get bigger as you use bigger snowballs to make it. Sometime the snowball spawn on top of a snowman which make the interaction a bit weird.  Simple, but really fun.

Developer(+1)

thanks for playing! yes the snowball can drop on weird place sometimes, I was aware of this but unfortunately I don't really know how to create a system to spawn object without dropping on something.

Submitted

I really like the PS1-style textures and models. Having different colored snowballs was a good idea, too. The Snowman king was pleased! Good job! :)

Developer

Thanks for playing, glad the colored snowball mechanic that I add at nearly at the last second due to time constraint enhance the game!

Submitted

Nice one, could be a bit faster

Developer

Thanks for playing, I see, maybe it's a little slow.

Man this feels so nostalgic; you absolutely nailed the atmosphere, and I love that ps1 aesthetic. It's a style I've always wished more games would try to emulate. While the actual gameplay is a bit simplistic, it feels like it would be right at home as a minigame in a much larger project.  Overall, its super impressive you made this almost entirely by yourself for a 3-day jam, and if there's any plans to expand it, I'd definitely check that out!

Developer

Thanks for playing, Yes the game is quite simplistic, it was going to be a lot more complicated with having to create a specific type of snow man  for a quest and stuff but as I start making it i only realize that it would be too much for my skill for this short jam so I went more focus on the atmosphere!

Submitted

The style of the game is brilliant, really atmospheric and nice to play for a while, unfortunately... I hope you will make full version of the game with more gameplay but in this style, it would be great!

Developer

Thanks for playing! glad you loved the style!

Submitted

This was one of the first games our team played that really struck something, an allure that's hard to explain really; as simple as it is, it's just satisfying to watch all the snowies populate the area, Idk! Good job, Chava.

Developer

Thanks for playing, yeah It really felt satisfying seeing the trace of what you make.

Submitted

Simple but really nice, I love the game's atmosphere and the PS1/low poly feel makes me feel cozy and nostalgic.

Submitted

Fantastic game!

Developer

thanks

Love the aesthetic a lot, perfectly got me in the groove for rolling snowballs! I'm glad snowman king is proud of me

If I could add anything, I wish that you could combine different color snowballs to make snowmen with different top/bottom colors - plus then you could have snowballs be any random color without it being a problem!

Developer

That was actually the plan before, but I ran out of time to implement it so I just leave it as that lol
