Did you work in a team?
It was just me participating in the jam. Was really fun putting ideas in code and realising the final result. Looking forward to the next one :)

Was the resolution a challenge?
Creating puzzles within a 64x64 resolution is challenging, really have to make good use of each tile

What did you learn?
This game jam helped me scope out a project and focus on completing a finished product with minimal game mechanics. This will definitely help me plan out future projects.

Cool game! Wished it was a little bit longer though :)

Also maybe having something that prevents the player from walking (not sliding) offscreen would be nice for people like me, I had a few accidental resets because I was spamming the movement keys 馃槄

nice work on the movement code; it feels great to just move around in this game!

Oh, just loved it.
Really felt like I was playing an old PC game.
Looks like an awesome game for speedruns, given more levels.

A small puzzle game, it reminds me of a puzzle from the game professor layton. I love the concept, more levels would be nice! (Want More)

This is awesome! It reminds me of Snowpoint Temple, one of my favorite puzzles from Pok茅mon, so the gameplay was instantly recognizable (and pretty nostalgic). The puzzles were a bit simple but the visuals and sound made it really enjoyable regardless. Great job overall!

Love the puzzles in the Pokemon games. Was a big inspiration for this. Glad you enjoyed it!

What a nice, small pico entry. It is a joy to play! The slide animation is a bit fast, it could be lerped for a smoother glide across the ice, but it does not hinder the gameplay in any way. Good job!

Developer

Thank you! I realise the sliding is a bit fast. Will attempt to slow it down using lerp. Thanks for the tip!

Really nice game! I wish there were more levels

My only disappointment with the game was that it ended too soon. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. :) You should definitely continue working on it and add more levels.

Developer

Glad you had fun with it even though it's short :( You've definitely inspired me to continue with it. So thank you!

Haha ! A nice take on a classic ! Good graphics and sound too ! You should definitelly flesh it out !

Developer

Thank you!

I love everything about this! From the super sprite and animation - so much character in there! - to the delightful map art and of course the intelligent level design. Nice effects too when you slide off the screen etc. Great job! 馃憤

Developer

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :)

Very well done! I remember playing a game similar to this with a penguin in it when i was a kid :D Progression was smooth and the need for collecting the gems to unlock the flag is a smart detail. Totally deserves more levels!

Thank you! The ice maze puzzles in Pokemon games was my inspiration for this one. I definitely need to add more levels then!
