This game is amazing, don't got anything to say other than some qol stuff (like me accidentally pressing escape and having to restart, wasn't an issue since I was already done playing at that point). Game feels really polished and good to play.

How does your game represent "Slick"?
The movement, with the player sliding around on the ice and bouncing off of the environment. Feels pretty slick...

I've played a lot of platformers in this jam but this is probably one of the most unique! The mechanic of using the mouse to spin the slicksicle is very intuitive and gives you just the right amount of control whereas to make it challenging but not frustrating. I really like the artwork, music and sound design as well! The whole game feels very polished. I could definitely see this as a very addictive mobile game! Cool game!

Slickback RadioA very original take on a platformer. Took a little bit to get a handle on the controls, but once you get going, well, you get going.
I did think that dying on colliding on a wall was a bit much, and the ice block forcing you to turn around got a bit tedious when you had to go back to the start to flip around again, I was reluctant to jump, spin, and return on a wall, because I didn't want to start each level again.
Although those difficulties probably made succeeding feel better then it would have otherwise. Slick work overall.

Getting out of HandI love the intuitive controls! I was expecting a tutorial, but once I started moving the mouse around and saw how the popsicle behaved, the game clicked in a really cool way. I think I only had a confusing moment once because one of the scoops didn't sling me all the way to where I was supposed to go, but everything else felt smooth!

Cold Hard CashAwesome take on the theme! As others have mentioned, the controls definitely take a little while to get used to. But once you understand it, the game is super fun and unique! The art is also amazing, great job!

Pelee's Big Slip UpCute, felt nice to control. Some of the collisions felt a bit unfair. I like the music and theme.

Blow GlobeIn love with the artstyle and gameplay, really like how you introduce new mechanics.
Only complaint is that the sliding is not very intuitive for the first time playing, took me some time to figure out I can slide
