Getting Over Snow

This is a rage-inducing platformer taking inspiration from Getting Over It, but with a snowy twist. You're controlling this poor soul with a ski pole trying to climb an impossibly frustrating mountain. One wrong move and you'll find yourself sliding back down, probably losing 30 minutes of progress. Not for the faint of heart.
