  • Really creative and fun concept! The idea of growing a snowball by rolling down a mountain and picking up skiers is both entertaining and a perfect fit for the jam’s theme. The stylized visuals and color palette work great, and I could see this game going viral with a bit more polish. That said, the gameplay loop felt a bit repetitive — the snowball grows over time regardless of player actions, which reduces the incentive to chase skiers. Adding more interactivity or consequences for missing or hitting skiers could make a big difference. The lack of map boundaries (like fog or mountains) slightly broke immersion, and the snowball-camera clipping bug also affected the experience. Still, a super promising prototype with a ton of potential — well done! I know this was done in a very short amount of time, keep it up guys! - Gorka Games
  • Other than the big bear at end doesn't feel anything like a ritual. Should have had a massive gathering of cultist skiers worshiping bear to crush into jelly at the end near the bear god. Overall it works but not compelling enough to want to grow bigger or collect skiers for the ritual. Audio missing and overall feedback is a huge hinderance to feeling engaged in game level and actions. Katamri is the go to reference and should have been copied as much as possible with the pure insanity of it all. Limiting the snowball growth and seeing way more objects collected with audio of chaos and sacrifice would have gone a long way to making it a fun experience. Nothing wrong with learning from something great. Emulation is a great way to learn and get better.
  • Nostalgic of katamari damacy :) game loop is simple and fun. Left desiring for more!
