Creative idea to use the "make a loop" idea that's pretty common and turn it into a puzzle game! I kept challenging myself to complete all the levels in a single loop, which was pretty fun
I love the take on the theme! The skating animation looks great and I love the style of it all
The menu screen music made me chuckle
Fun game, I think maybe the "Loop detection" should be a littlebit more forgiving. Sometimes I used up all 3 of my loops instantly when the angle was almost paralell to the original line.
What a fun and cute take on the theme!
fun game, sometimes would accidentally make a small loop after completing the first one and kept losing like that lmao, but fun overall
Graphics and models are sweet, gameplay also feels smooth. Good job!
P.S. Please rate my game, I dont wanna fall under the median threshold lol
Interesting concept, in my opinion would be nice if it had an infinite level with moving enemies. Great execution!
Yeah I agree that would probably be a pretty addicting game. If we want to expand it further we might do that. Thanks for the feedback!
Yet another "make a loop around something" game, but at least I found this more challenging with the loop limits. And the player moves smoothly.
This game is really cute and the music whilst playing the game was really chill and def fit the vibes of the gameplay very well. The title screen music definitely does not fit the game and threw me off at first. The level design is a bit weird with some placements causing me to keep running into the seals in glitchy ways and then fall into my own holes in the ice, everything felt like it could be solved with just 1 cut though and there could have been some more unique elements to the levels. I think the game could have benefited by being longer.
The metal on the title screen threw me as well... Wasn't expecting a chill puzzle game with the slither mechanic. Well done.
I also really liked the movement on the ice, nicely done!
Was a real rollercoaster from thinking "Oh that looks cute" to "HEAVY GUITAR" on the menu and back to Chilled music and ice skating haha. The movement felt really intuitive and the concept is quite creative I felt. Originally I thought the seals would move towards the baby penguins but I was surprised to find it was more of a puzzler! Overall good addition to the jam I think! Nice work
The controls were really well done and the game felt great to play.
The ice skating movement feels really really good
