Stay cool. Stay in the shade.
A snowman in summer? That takes brains. Snowdi wants to get back to his igloo, but he may only stand in the shade. And the shade moves with every step.

How it works
The sun travels across the island. Every move changes the shadows, so you have to think ahead.
The sun is on the left, shadows fall to the right.
The sun stands high. Shadows are only half as long.
The sun is on the right, shadows fall to the left.
At night there is shade everywhere. Taller things cast longer shadows: bush 1 tile, tree 2, house 3. The shortest solution earns the third star.
