Love em all

They're usually empty and void of life so it's easy for me to imagine that I have successfully destroyed the world and can live in peace and quiet for all eternity

Slip slidey movement is hard to get right, but I don't think it's inherently bad.
Blake James
Fuck this place, jumping the pillars without the space jump was a pain.
Lucas Torres
slidy ice mechanics.
not fun. not challenging. just awkward.
Aiden Brown
Love, they have the best music and always have unique encounters in the entire game
Hate, that sometimes, they have the trope of slippery floors, its a 50/50 in some cases, there's times where the slippery floors let's you go at retarded speeds if you know how to keep your momentum, but in other cases it makes the game a chore.
Evan Williams
The music.
Ayden Foster
Always enjoy a good snow level, especially if its got that abandoned feeling to it.
Leo Roberts
Unless given an interesting twist, it's painfully boring to look at for a lengthy period. It should be saved for short levels/segments.
Colton Harris
I tend to enjoy their atmosphere. I've always enjoyed Winter. I like the cold and isolation that it invokes.
I tend to not like ice levels mechanically, though. I don't care for the slip-sliding of it all, at least not in platformers. I know it's just a simple adjustment, but I often feel they can easily become unfair if the slipperiness of it isn't balanced well.

What counts as an interesting twist in your opinion?
Nolan Moore
Meant to put ice physics under Hate.

The ones that are visually impressive/cool to look at

The physics (though, I suppose it varies)

They can be quite comfy and I like when they aren't too cluttered with stuff.
Lucas Moore
Fucking love it. Comfy as fuck.
Bentley Cruz
SNow is pretty but jsut about everything else about it is awful
>COld wet slippery
>Makes that awful crunching sound when you step in it
>Only thing unaffected by Snow are birds which are the one thing you'd want to fuck off for winter
But thankfully most of that stuff doesn't apply to videogames
Henry Clark
>wait months for mmo to change landscape to snow
>mfw first day it happens
Austin Edwards
Good
>Usually good music (unless they go xmas style)
>Comfy
>Nice change of pace
>Looks gud
Bad
>Slippery mechanics
>Many games dont have crunchy snow foot falls
>Cold mechanics often are just tedious instead of engaging/immersive
Chase Ortiz
I like walking around in the snow in real life so I love a good snow level. The ice fields in Breath of the wild were great. I'm also a big fan desert levels.

satisfying crunch and tippy tappy noises
theme songs with sleigh bells

If "snowy" and "icy" is the only thing that describes them, they're trash.
If it's a place that would be interesting even if it wasn't snowy, then good.
John Hall
best music, worst mechanics
always

What game is this? Looks cozy.

What are some games where the whole thing is an ice level?
Aiden Thompson
Question for the people who hate ice physics.
How would you feel if a ice/snow level never used slippery ice. Would you be glad they didn't use the mechanic or would you feel like the devs didn't do something that's obligatory for a snow level? If I played through an ice level and never landed on a slippery surface and slid around honestly I'd feel kinda ripped off.

WHAT DO I HATE ABOUT SNOW LEVELS?
THEY GET AWAY WITH IT. THAT'S WHAT I HATE ABOUT THEM.
GIVE ME FUCKING SAND AND SUN AND WIDE OPEN PLAINS OF NOTHINGNESS IN WHICH TO FIGHT GRAND BATTLES WITH EPIC KAIJU!
Justin Harris
I guess the fact that you're snug as a bug in a rug while exploring these beautiful landscapes, without the frigid cold sinking into your skin.

The number one thing that I absolutely fucking HATE about ice levels is that I can never again experience them for the first time to put some joy and/or wonder into my life.

They’re awesome. They make me feel comfy as fuck.
Josiah Rodriguez
Ristar is one of those rare games that actually has fun ice levels. Hell, the water levels are fun too.
Jace Howard
I genuinely believe that how much of my enjoyment from a game is based around the availability of a snowy level. Even if the game can be shit, if there's an ice level then it's all good.
Dark Souls 2, it thought it was okay and nothing special, until it got the DLC with a snow level. Borderlands 2 is infuriating but it got a snow level. Fucking Lost Planet games are just 3 Michelin stars games in my eyes.
Michael Diaz
Space jump first. I'll never replay Prime without doing it that way
