Winter Storm

You are trapped in a strange dungeon in the middle of a blizzard. You find a magic shovel tip that can fly around. Use it together with your handle in order to help other people and get out together. But watch out, there are some snowfoes wandering around! 

Controls

• Use WASD or arrow keys to move around.
• Use E to interact with your shovel handle.
• Use E to put snow inside holes.
• Use your mouse to move the shovel tip (after unlocking). 
• Left click to attach / detach the shovel to any interactibles. 
• Use the number keys to switch between rescued characters.

You can dig snow by inserting your shovel tip into a snow pile and then interacting with the tip to attach the handle. Interact again to take out the snow and put it in your bag.

You can use the snow in your bag and put it in holes to open up your path. 

Some elements only need a shovel handle to be interacted with. 
Some elements only need your shovel tip. 
Some elements need both.

Remarks

This was an entry for the Mini Jame Gam https://itch.io/jam/mini-jame-gam-15/
The game was made in 48 hours. 
We didn't have time to implement a victory state. The game finishes when you rescue the fifth character. 
There may be some bugs, awkward issues and balancing problems. 

The theme of the game is Together. The special object is Shovel. Every mechanic we designed for the game revolves around that.
