I admit I have a soft spot for seals because they are my favorite animal, but even without taking that into account you guys did a really great job on everything and interpreted the jam theme in a creative, sweet and beautiful way. Thank you so much for this game!

Snowball is much bigger than Snowflake. They are built to scale according to the sexual dimorphism of their species.

I really liked both the atmospheric art and music, as well as the puzzles. The way the game integrates the Switch controls with the scale theme may seem simple, but it’s actually clever and very well executed.
Really cute -and informational! The pixel art is really impressive, thanks for the fun time :)
Played on web. I couldn't get switching to work. Tried mashing the e key and every other key on keyboard but I was only ever controlling snowflake.
Downloaded because I loved the artstyle too much to miss out and had a great time <3 I would die for snowball.
I’ve been smiling the whole time I was playing it! The game is cute, Snowflake’s movement animation and little “honks” are a delight, seeing Snowball just roll made me laugh, and the seal facts/puns throughout are a nice touch (though I didn’t read fast enough for the longer ones).
I was genuinely sad that the game ended, I would have loved to spend more time with those two but heh that’s game jams for you. It’s already impressive to get this many levels done in this time frame, so nice job! <3
Really fun and cute! Playing as characters of two different scales is a nice interpretation of the theme! I also found the art style very charming!
This was a cute game!
Would be great to implement a quick-restart button and some audio feedback when you pull a lever
That was lovely! The duo really won me over!
Would have loved to see more level variation, maybe some small corridors in which the small seal was the only one that could pass through.
And props for the seal trivia and the seal puns! Thanks for working on this!
the levels are really good, art is cute and narrative also sits really well
I loved it :) The animation was great and the levels were really fun
super cute art style!! the way the seals move is so satisfying. The puzzles were interesting as well, reminds me of those 2 player platformer games like fireboy and watergirl. Great job!!
This is so cute! I love all the pixel art. And the seal facts! Some of the story disappeared before I could read the whole thing - it would be nice if it waited for me to press a button to continue.
Really adorable game, especially love how jiggly snowflakes walk (bounce) cycle is! And I learnt so many new seal facts :D
This is SOOO cute!!!! I love the concept and how each of them have their own abilities. the facts were super fun, too! i would do anything for snowball TT-TT
Nice game, really liked those facts before each level! Too bad it was just 5 levels... Please consider to check our submission as well, much appreciated!
