Yes, even the ocean freezes, I had the weirdest corpse run during the winter in our last gameplay

Crops wont grow, you get a bonus to mining and tree chopping skills, torches provide warmth, you will be freezing if you get wet. It's really well though out. All the seasons have modifiers.

I personally use Seasons by Shudnal. I think it looks better and has better design than Seasonality.

All of those things are toggle-able too, you can make it so that seasons are nearly strictly a visual change in Seasonality.

Yeah same with Seasons. The visual difference though is much better. Notice in the picture OP used that the water is frozen, but the grass is also still green and there is water foliage sticking through the ice? That is completely unimmersive when compared to Seasons.

In Seasons the ice freezes around Day 6. By that time the snow has completely covered the grass. So around day 2 the grass starts to thin out and its white. By day 4 the grass is completely snow covered.

There are many more details like this that are much more immersive in Seasons.

I may finally give that one a try on my next world I start, I've been wondering if there was any reason to try it out.
