Adorable as heck! a sweet little multiplayer.
A lot of fun to play, and very charming.
Trippy as heck, would like to see this taken further.
The idea of gradually building up abiities and even the audio and UI over time is really well executed. The overarching narrative comes across well without ever weighing the game down. Plus, the serene and contemplative atmosphere meshes surprisingly plesantly with the tension of running and fighing the enemies. Overall, you took the theme and and ran with it in the best way I've seen so far in the jam; very impressive.
Genuine unease at every change in the environment thanks to the awesome sound design. I loved the graphics, and although the narrative was short, it was very immersive. Really impressive!
I can easily see this becoming a very sucessful mobile game, it has the right mix of difficulty and enjoyability. I think my only complaint would be that for such a lively and fast-paced game, the aesthetics don't really match the energy: the things you can pick up aren't very colourful, and the grey colour of the snowball kind of makes it look like a ball of dirt. However, solid gameplay and an overall good time to play - highly addictive.
