The graphics weren't great but the animation was pretty cool. I really liked the music; it had a certain charm to it. I liked how you implemented the snowman joke in there with the snowman icons around the edge. It followed the theme and did it nicely. I found it pretty innovative. Overall, it's a great game!"},{"author_name":"raincole","author_uid":"17708","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 7:37pm","epoch":1418153520,"text":"Graphics are cool!

This is a deceptively difficult little puzzle game, lol! :D I really enjoyed this. The only thing I actually had issue with was trying to initially figure out what all the tiles did. You had a really great start to a tutorial going on at the beginning, but I felt it was unfinished. I really wish that it extended to being told what different tiles did, and what they were. I figured out most of them due to trial and error, though I did feel frustrated not being told how they functioned and ending up dying multiple times, as they are fairly simple graphics and don't give a really straightforward idea as to what each tile does. :(\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Other than that, this was really solid! I liked the gameplay, and the music was good, too! I loved the robotic snowman voice, and I really enjoyed making tiny snowmen! :D"},{"author_name":"barryrowe","author_uid":"34236","time":"Dec 22, 2014 @ 12:13am","epoch":1419206880,"text":"I like this game.
