Such a cute game! The writing is adorable (especially the gangster crows), and I love the artstyle something fierce. There are few bugs with the water being traversable and a giant "GAME OVER" white screen showing over 3/4 of the general store when you enter if you fell in the water, opening a second instance of the game over the top of the pre-existing game. I could play 2 snowmen at once. Then, after reaching the boy, he hit the door, the instance played a second time, and then the game hard crashed back to my main menu. It's such a shame too because it would be a fantastic game if not for the fatal issues.
Thank you for your feedback! We're pleased to say that we've not only fixed those pesky bugs, but we've also added some new features and made changes based on the feedback we received during the jam. :)
