You can change the Weather from five different states which help you with their effects.

Rain drops which spawn water cubes that can be frozen in the SNOW State. Water Cubes are also used to move some platforms in the game.
SNOW

STORM (LEFT)
Same effects as STORM (RIGHT) but in the opposite direction.
This game was made during the Curdle Jam #6. All Assets were made by myself.

Very interesting mechanic! Here is my critisism:
1. The ground is Too slipery, making the game harder.
2. Sometimes you get stuck on the walls and you can't get out of them
3. I feel like there is an imbalance in the second level according to difficuly.
Otherwise, Everything else is pretty good
Hey, thank you for your review. Sadly I am aware of the first two points of your critisism, I wasn't able to fix those things for the jam submission. Maybe I will come back to that some time. I will probably make it so the first level uses the weather mechanic too, so you don't have so many problems in the second level with the mechanic.
Thank you for playing! I appreciate it!
Very interist idea, i like how you made the different weather states. Your art, especially the background is very nice.
But we can't make it past the second level, can you help us? or does it end there?
Hi! I'm happy that you liked the mechanics! There actually is a third level past the second one. The way to solve a level is to collect at least fifty of those mini clouds. In the second level the clouds are quite hidden, if that is the problem. If you are stuck on some kind of obstacle, try every weather state, there should be a way to cross it.
Thank you for playing! I will try to improve the game further, thanks to your feedback.
