Really fun game!

I was a little confused in the beginning, but once I figured what was going on, I had a lot of fun and completed the game! The difficulty was just right, I had to retry the last level quite a few times, but not to the point of it being frustrating. The idea of the player character growing and shrinking and incorporating that into the level design was very well done. Good job!

This is a great little game. The shrinking mechanic creates interesting, intuitive puzzles and the micro platforming feels fun. Love how each level is contained to one screen and the visuals represent the mechanics so efficiently. Solid work!

Nice game, the mechanics of shrinking and growing by collecting snowflakes were pretty innovative. Good job!

a simple but tricky game, the mechanic of the player different sizes was pretty cool, mostly cause it wasnt a simple "mario bros like" thing where the bigger the better but you actually had to think when to grow and when to shrink.  

great job!

Good use of game mechanics along with the great stage design

Really fun mechanic! I also enjoy it when platformers make you have to figure the order of actions out, and this game had a lot of that.

This game was really fun!  I thought the shrinking/growing mechanic was really well-executed - loved how intuitive a lot of it was, as well as the progression of difficulty.  There were times I had to step back and figure out how to proceed, but I never felt frustrated.

Nice! It felt cool discovering I could use the thigs I froze as platforms.

Wow! What a little gem! I love the concept of growing and shrinking, while affecting the various 'traps' in the levels. The game produced some great "aha" moments for me as I figured out the puzzles. Well done! I would play many more levels of this.
