Very cute little concept and well executed! The snow angle minigame was a little quick and hard to get consistently, but it was good fun. The artstyle is very cozy and cute and everything seems very well polished! Well done and thanks for joining the jam!

Cute, but the minigame is a bit too hard, so I ended up spamming e most of the time.
Perfect scores on cozy winter vibes + presentation! A very well polished little experience, kudos! :)
Love the cozy winter vibe! The artstyle is very cute and animal-crossing-ish, loved that, too! For me, the thing I struggled with was the quick disappearance of the snow angel bar. Sometimes the speed of the bar was so quick and it left before I even recognised it was there. :') I would recommend to let the bar stay and let it go back and forth. So even if someone doesn't click in the first "round", they could estimate the speed of the bar and click on the second or third "round". But overall such an cozy and beautifully made game! <3
I think you really nailed the theme of the jam! This game certainly has a cozy winter vibe. Love the art style and making snow angels is a very novel mechanic.
Love the look and feel, almost like a N64 game! I found the controls a little too challenging but otherwise great for a short jam.
Very cozy, and the 3d models look good ! i don't know if its just me but i did have low framerate while playing that game, still, congratsn great game !
The 3D models look amazing — I really liked them. It definitely has a strong cozy vibe too. Great game!
Great and super cute game 💖☃️✨
Love its concept and the 3D models, which are adorable.
As some other players mentioned it, it would be nice to have a variety of objects to find.
Good job ! 🌈
This was a really nice game! The only thing that could be improved I think is a little extra variety somewhere like the items, maybe he is extra greedy and wants 4 yellow mittens, 4 red mittens and 4 blue mittens!
I love this game. the art makes me wanna burst on how good it is and the animation. I just love this artstyle it's so cute. the story was also funny, greedy snowman. I guess even a greedy snowman deserves a bit of kindness. my main gripe is that making snow angels is a bit rng based due to the speed sometimes being too fast even for an esports player to react but I didn't really mind because I can just redo it. at first I was trying to brute force the spots but then I just started to explore and try to guess the spots, you were very sneaky but I was able to guess it and finish the game.
definitely the best game I played so far in the jam. a contender for #1
Huge Animal Crossing vibes and you really can't get any cosier than that! Super cute presentation, great 3D models and a well placed camera. The actual gameplay loop and mechanic felt a bit random but it was a nice cute and cozy time in the snow. Great work!
Nice game! I wasn't sure if the mittens were strategically hid around the level or if they just had a chance to randomly pop up when you make a snow angel. The snow angel mini game was too fast sometimes, I liked that it was variable, but the minimum time threshold needed to be a little higher.
If the mittens do randomly spawn, then I would've liked to see them hidden around the level in certain spots maybe near terrain and markers.
Overall very nice presentation. The art/overall look was great and clean!
Cozy little game. The level is made well, and the audio also helps sell the idea that we are on a winter landscape. Pretty cool!
Minor things:
I accidentally made a mitten spawn out of bounds, and I could not pick it up (I made a snow angel at the left side of the level, near the dry tree). Luckily for me, it turned out that it is possible to get more than 10 mittens spawn, so I was able to finish the game without resetting.
I felt like occasionally the angel minigame was a little too quick (because it started right away when I clicked E, and it was a faster version of the minigame). I understand this is part of the challenge of the game. However, I think adding just a slight delay before the minigame pops up, or adding some sound effects (when the angel approaches, or when the minigame shows up on the screen) would make it a little more user friendly.
This was cute! I'm a fan of the low-poly 3D artstyle and music, definitely did well with the cozy vibes. I appreciate that this was a straightforward and easily-digestible concept--I can tell you all were able to polish it quite a bit as a result of keeping the scope reasonable for a 3-day jam.
If there were time to make this a bit more fleshed out, I would recommend a bit more variety in how you actually acquire the mittens. Maybe different kinds of minigames, or some way of incorporating the environment into the challenge.
Overall very wintery, very cozy. Well done!
It was a really fun, relaxing, and cozy experience. I love the art and the music — great job!
Really cute and small game, I loved the snowangel mini-game, maybe quite challenging to time it right at first.
For the hidden mittens all I did was farming the frozen lakes spots (maybe that was the point due to the theme?)
