This looks like the start of a grand idea, although I feel that you ran out of time. Controls aren't explained, and I can't really tell what anything does. Red balls make you smaller, green make you bigger, but to what ends?
In any case, I like the style. Check out sfxr for some really awesome/easy sound effects - it goes a long way.
It's good to see more people using Construct2 :) Good job!
Hey, man! I liked the concept a lot, it gave me a Spore-esque feeling of that beggining, (which I feel is the best part of the game).
I didn't bother not having controls explained to me as I like to find out stuff too :D, and I was surprised to find out I could control the character with the mouse. When I did I really enjoyed the gameplay, although I feel the controls could feel a little tighter.
Good concept, man!
Played it on my iPhone 3GS, worked perfectly!
Interesting little game. I like that you let the player figure out what to do. Could definitely have benefitted from a little sound though. Good job! :)
I liked how at the start there were two different paths you could follow, plant seeds or grow into a fish. I had no problem figuring out the controls. I second the notion to use sfxr.
It took me awhile to realize that the red things were hurting me. As has been said, sound would have gone a long way, but this is still a fun little diversion.
Fun game with a neat feel. It took me a bit to figure out controls and plotline. I still don't know how to plant seeds - tried everything I could think of. But it was fun, and worked well. Funky art, and you evolve! Nice work.
It felt like a feeding frenzy game with a twist, very cool. I would love to see a bigger game with that concept.
Awesome game! Well done Zak!
I initially had a problem because I thought I died a few times and didn't realize what the different colored pellets did. I like the concept though and I think with more time you could have fleshed it out really well. I liked the animation on the amoeba stage.
A silly little fun game. I like the idea!
Fun! Everything was very intuitive, and I beat it. Short and sweet.
Man I loved the fish face :D
It's a good start, could be fun to work on it again and try to improve your concept :)
Some explanation of the controls/goal would have been helpful. Some sound would have been nice as well. It fit the theme well, and it was fun enough :)
Liked exploration of what hapens after eating something. It could be more interesting if we hade couple types of food. Generaly nice one!
