In a small world where the only direction is up and down, a young mountain goat named Snowball is trying to get home.
Jump from cliff to cliff while avoiding dangerous eagles, avalanches, and more. Push around ice to make elaborate towers to climb your way from the bottom of a ravine to the very top, where a warm, cozy igloo will be waiting to take you in.
Controls: -WASD for movement -R to reset the level -Hold down C to power up a jump. Release to jump. -SPACE to jump -Collide with ice blocks to move them! Made in GameMaker Studio 2 4_19_2020 4_56_48 PM.png
I love the character design! The interface was a little difficult to get a hang of- seemed kind of buggy at times and tight at others. Look out for Winged Claws!!! Poor snowball...
Love the audio of the game! Movement can seem a little clunky cause I got stuck a few times, and it might help if there was a bar to see how much you have charged up your jump. Pretty cool idea though, I had fun jumping around the map and watching snowball do his super jump XD! Absolutely adorable!
It all feels very clunky. Sometimes I get stuck on a wall. Sometimes I get stuck in the clouds. The controls are also weird. Why not let me control the character with arrow keys? Even so I was able to complete the game. I like how silly it looks. Like when the eagle grabs you. And I think the falling snow is a nice mechanic. Good job on completing a game!

It is a good game idea and has potential, but the controls and collisions need a lot of work. I kept getting stuck in clouds or on the cliffs. One of the biggest issues was that I couldn't jump while pushing an ice cube, so I would end up dying to an eagle. As a professional coder, I think you should continue working on this game. A cool addition to the game could be user-created levels.
I think this is the entry that I have spent the most time in so far, I just could not give up. It was a real challenge and in the end I finally managed :smile: :goat: :trophy:
The artstyle is very cute, I specially like the "flipping 2d asset"-effect you have when you turn, and the animations are also cool. The charging up animation was also super cute.
Audio was good, the music was nice and felt like it fit the game well, the eagle noises only increased my anger at the bird-kin. Nice touch with having different ways to die, not just from the eagles :thumbsup:
Cute main music and interesting idea. Could use a little more feedback on the high-jump, and the regular jump is just kind of useless. Only managed to get through the 1st level
Overall a really fun experience. The idea is innovative and really well executed. I enjoyed the art style and Snowball is absolutely adorable! I feel in love with this little goat.

Good job!
A little bit buggy on the movement and controls, but that is understandable in the time frame.
The game presented itself really well so good work on the game design aspect.
