I loved the sonic style artstyle and the cool melting mechanic (That could be a bit more generous) and like smajlo said the browser size was too big. 2nd best game in this jam i've seen so far!

Game Description
You play as a snowman named Melton who needs to deliver his Christmas presents to the mailbox, but it's warm out so he needs to hurry before he melts!
How does your game tie into the theme?
Melton builds momentum as you try and do platforming. The momentum can sometime do more harm than good, but the results may surprise you.

Ah, I was wondering if that would cause issues in some instances like that. I'm not quite sure what the best way is to handle that for games that are playable in the browser. Do you have any ideas on how to handle it that doesn't compromise the visuals for those that don't care to hit the full screen button
I may be not the best person to advice on it, since my game also suffers from game window issues, but one idea is to set smaller window size in browser, so player will either have smaller window that fits into screen or goes full screen. Or there is option in itch,io to make always go full screen; maybe that's an option.
I'm going look into this more and also test more browser play on different devices next time.
