i love it

It's magic! I love the fact, that this very person is probably seeing all of it and doing all these things every single day and for him it's as far from "magic" as it can be. And nevertheless it's magic! It resonates with me a lot — wonder in the mundane, beauty and richness in the familiar. Thank you for the game!

Such a cute game! Although I've never been to a place like this, the atmosphere feels very cozy and I loved it :)

I went on a neat little stroll.  I saw plenty of snow and even made snow angels.  The trees waved at me as I aligned the radios.  They were happy to see me outside.  Before long supper was ready and I had to head back inside.  Maybe I'll go out again tomorrow.

It has a very relaxing atmosphere! Since my hometown used to be covered in snow during winter, it brought back a lot of nostalgic memories. Playing outside on a cold day, returning home while completely frozen, and slowly feeling the sensation come back to your body…

This is gameplay footage recorded during a stream before the bug fixes, meow. (ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ)

nice game! tours coming in a future update?

(+1)

no probably not! just had some signs i wanted to put in the original release but were buggy, so i fixed them later. i would expect no future updates but anything can happen!

A fun little game!

You have to stop and ask yourself if you may be playing too many of a specific genre of games *COUGH* *COUGH* *horror*COUGH* *COUGH* when you see such a serene landscape as is presented in this game and all you can think is "Oh god, which way is it going to get me from? There's nothing to hide behind out here... Where the heck did THOSE snow angels come from?! I didn't make those!" the entire time. That said this was actually quite cute once the panic wore off. I'll have to try some of your other works now.

1941 magic! this was so so lovely, i'm not a gamer at all - i just came across one of your tweets and loved the aesthetic (pixels, snow!). the snow angel is such a sweet detail and the sound design made it even better. this was perfect for me, personally. thank you! <3

(+1)

it happens

Loved this and great day on the lake, very sweet games. Are you planning on making ones for spring and summer also?

(+1)

thank you!! i hadn't thought about them being season dependent but i think probably yes. i am mostly inspired by the nature happening around me.

on the sled i accidentally glitched over the north fence and then crossed to a pitch black map

sometimes gravel county gets dark

Very cool direction in this. Somewhat reminiscent of Polynya by bulnoka, but I liked the tiny world here for certain.

(+1)

i just played polynya after you commented and it's gorgeous! thank you for the kind comparison and kind words xo

(+1)

No worries. You both capture this sense of "comfortable foreboding" through your winter pieces, which I think is impressive. The sound design and landscape plays a big part in that.

(+1)

Very talented and sweet. You're great.

thank you! you're great too

A taste of gameplay ;)

(+1)

What an amazing cozy game! :D

(+1)

i like the little red dude. i liked sledding but i didnt really know how to get off the sled once i got on it? still awesome though

(+1)

you can press ESC to get off the sled!

2327 magic. i inadvertently resumed the game during the credits since i was on the sled but it is part of the magic too

(+1)

this rules

(+1)

immediately figured out how to go out of bounds lol

Me too, lost in the void.

you're a wizard

Whimsical. Cozy. Quaint. I finished this game 1933 units more magical, with a heart full of joy and a belly full of supper. Your art style is distinctive, your sound effects superb.

thanks for playing!

Very cool! Big fan of sledding around and the sound design. I'm feeling ready for a nap now 😌

Got 1836 magic

thank you so much
