This was so fun and polished!

Developer

Thanks :P

really really great little game, so happy I checked this out! it looked great, played well, and I think was a fantastic justification of the theme and object, better than most. I think they were quite hard in this jam, but you made both parts integral to your game and also very logically sound, so neither felt like a stretch just to tick the boxes! (for the record, I think that's totally fair to do that and again they were hard this jam imo, so no judgement to others, but it's very impressive to make a game where both feel intentional and well implemented)

the only thing I thought was missing was whistle sfx, but with all you managed to achieve in the short time, it's hardly fair to focus on that! if you ever decide to make this into a longer experience, I'll be sure to check it out :)

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I did make SFX, but the web version sometimes muffles them or whatever, idk it's weird. You can access the setting by pressing P and tune it to your liking.

Submitted

oh nooo I'm sorry! should've downloaded it haha

Developer(+1)

Nah, It's fine this is still one of my better web versions. The godot web exports sometimes just implode on themselves it's so freaking annoying.

Submitted

ok update I have downloaded it,  sfx are lovely! so glad you let me know this so I can fix my scoring, seriously such a well put together game!

Developer(+1)

Oh that's so kind of you man, thanks so much.

Submitted

Nice Pico-8 style game. Feels quite polished. :)

Developer

Thanks!

This is really good! The flowing particles and the crystals that signal danger made Freeze feel really present throughout the game. I also thought the mountain rescue setting was a great fit, because it made the whistle feel much more believable and real.

Developer

Thanks a lot.

Laser gun perk is too op, shot thought walls is like a wall hack for any enemy. But I liked idea with abilities. Good job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

This game was Amazing!! the gameplay, the art and the ambience it gave was superb!! this was the first game i saw at the submission page once the rating period was open and i wanted to play it since then and now finally i did and this is easily among my top 3 fav of this jam, also the music was soo similar to that of undertale's or maybe its just me!! overall its a solid game❄️

Developer

Thanks a lot! I don't know how the music happened, I just randomly slapped notes together until i got something that doesn't make you want to rip off your ears lol

Submitted

Great game! Visuals and feel are really nice. Was surprised to see it had a rogue-like abilities system too. Good job!

Developer

Thanks!

This is really really good! some sfx for various things would make this perfect! 

love the art and effects, genuinely gobsmacked that this is done in 2 days

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Nice one, I just don't figure to find the base at the end :/ 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, yeah it's supposed to be a "final challenge" to test your navigation skills...

Submitted(+1)

I suppose I'm not that good at navigation ^^ 

Submitted

Very consistent graphics and juicy gameplay.

Developer

Thank you :)

Submitted

Instant brain activation when I saw i had to choose one of three options. I wish there were more opportunities to use the upgrades tho

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. If I had more time I definitely would have expanded upon them.

Submitted

The minimalistic music got stuck in my head, it was one of my favourite things. It's cool. The graphics are cool too, the gameplay is fun and cool, all is cool (wink wink). Great work!

Developer

Thank you :)

Submitted

This is awesome! I only wish it were longer.

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

amazing work

Developer

Thanks :)

Submitted

super cool little game i like the "true" pixel art and the controls feel very smooth the music was also really good there wasn't a very clear objective though so i was just running around until i found the end but over all great game :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback. If I had more time I would have added a better tutorial or an objective screen that tells you what to do.

Submitted

amazing arts, this game like something u would find in steam

Developer(+1)

Thank you.

Submitted

This is an excellent submission for sure. Great job

Developer

Thanks man!

Submitted

I ran around for a long while avoiding everything until I found (a) my whistle and (b) a chaingun.

When I restarted I found I already had a gun, but it probably makes me chill faster anyway as games felt shorter, or more fun. I fond some horizontal exits/entrances to not let me through. Maybe I wasn't jumping to the right height; it felt like a bug but I was freezing so can't be sure. I suppose you have several screens randomly arranged and supposed to all interconnect with minimal player jostling. Or you just arranged all the screens by hand and I found the invisible wall.

Anyway, great game. I'd like to think the power ups are meta-progression because I die soon after finding just one per game. 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. The screens are made by me, but are randomly shuffled before every game. The gun has nothing to do with how fast you're freezing. The only thing that can slow it down is the cold resistance upgrade if you find it.

Submitted

AsI already said, this is sick !!Really cool game and juice here !

Developer

:D

Submitted

Super efficient! Easy to handle and I like the concept a lot. It took me a while before I understood I could go down to another screen when the hole is at the bottom. But otherwise, it's pretty nice, complete and fun! Congrats!

Developer

Thanks!
