I like the art, especially the little coffee mugs that walk after you. Great game!

Good game, the idea is good and the implementation is good too! The way you move the character is a bit weird, but overall, the difficulty seems to be good

Very good idea, just need to work on the move mechanics or maybe that was your point, it was fun.

Nice overall. Controls a bit sticky, music nice, not sure how to grow my snowman, thinking the snowballs have something to do with it. Got frustrated at the end

Nice game, I sucked at it, but not bad! I think there was one glitch, maybe it's a feature, but at some point I would start moving multiple tiles at a time and couldn't land on snow to recharge.

Control are weird (but you warned me to use gamepad), I was unable to reach the snow when the snowman is small...
Nice game !

Cool twist on a bullet hell style game! My 360 controller didn't work through the web plugin though, I wonder if I need to download it for that to work. I kind of secretly with the snowman was our theme.

I want to be friends with that coffee cup. Seemed a bit buggy on the webplayer.

Cute! I like everything about it but the movement, which was awkward enough that I couldn't get a handle on the game.

Cool game. Once you get used to the controls it's quite fun.

Also, thanks for using my music :)

Congratulations on completing your first Jam experience! :)

Just putting down the few things I mentioned in Twitch:

- Movement is a little sporadic, makes it a little tough to aim.
- Great use of the theme, cute artwork!
- Good humor. :)
- I love how the snowman moves slowly when he's large and quickly when he's small, it makes sense!
- Controls are a little like rubbing your belly and patting your head at the same time, a little bit autonomically confusing. Try assigning the fire button to the trigger instead of the shoulder button. :)

Overall, great job! :D

YES! Because snowman!

I was bad at this game, but it was awesome to play what you made, and I particularly loved the toasters!

Interesting hot and cold health mechanic! =) The controls took some getting used to though!

Nice game, i got 12400 points! The controls are a little insensitive, sometimes you stop charging your shot when you move while holding the mouse button. It would be nice to have free movement instead of moving from slot to slot also. Overall a fun game, good job!

fun game!, the garbage bin was a bit over powered in my opinion though, especially since the moving was limited around the time it came out

There was many good obstacles to overcome but the snowman was a little hard to control.
