It was a special day for the little duck! He was excited to go explore the world beyond his pond, but it was too cold, and he ended up getting stuck in the snow! How would he get out of this? Would his special day come to an end? Or would a strange human come save him...

What an adorable game!! I'm so glad I finally got around to playing it >v<

First of all, the art?? was soooo pretty??? I was amazed by the amount of CGs in this game... Every time a new picture appeared, I just went "awwww"!!

The story was super adorable, too!! I knew it would be something about a duck, but that's it hahaha
I really loved Linnet's and Puddle's relationship <3 Even if the ending did feel a bit sad, it was so sweet at the same time :'))

I really enjoyed this game and I'd love to see more in the future from u <33

This is a cute little game, I enjoyed it. 

There is a minor technical issue - the 2048x2048 icon keeps it  from running under Linux. I'd suggest shrinking that if you make a re-release.

Thanks for posting this.

Oh, thank you!! I'll figure out a way to fix it!

A wonderfully sweet game, and even more so knowing it was a birthday present for a friend! 

The game itself is not very long, and certainly does not need to be! It tells a very simple but sweet story. For its length, the game contains quite the amount of original artwork! All of it is high-quality and definitely provides the feeling of being safe and warm in the cold days of winter. It's very easy to just pause on a screen and enjoy the quality and time put into such a game and its art! 

The option to change fonts was also very appreciated!

All in all a very sweet jump into the world of gamedev, which anyone would be able to clearly see upon playing for themself!
