It shows that you put a lot of effort into graphics :) The concept is neat too, the final level is great :D

midgard 2012-08-27 04:24

The best graphics I seen by now in the 48hour competition. And the game final.. is a bit scary o_o

asot 2012-08-27 04:25

Wonderful graphics and great job with the theme! I'm inspired by the time and effort you spent on the graphics. It's beautiful.

cataclysmicknight 2012-08-27 04:33

I really like this concept a lot, and yeah the ending is crazy, but definitely not in a bad way :)

jeremy1080 2012-08-27 04:34

The graphics are amazing! And the game is actually pretty fun! Congrats on a fun game :D

foxor 2012-08-27 04:58

Great stuff. I let out a little "woo" of joy when I finished it! Well done

pjchardt 2012-08-27 04:58

I will chip in too and say that the graphics are very nice. I really liked the "visibility" effect of the different evolved states.

turkwise 2012-08-27 05:00

Loving the concept and the art.

twilightflandre 2012-08-27 05:00

Probably one of the best graphics in this competition. The final segment of the game I found hilarious. Overall I enjoyed the game the entire time I played. Wished it was a bit longer but hey what can you ask for given it WAS just 48 hours.

loggiant 2012-08-27 05:08

This game was wonderful! I particularly enjoyed exploring the little world this game takes place in.

nuria 2012-08-27 05:56

Great graphics! I know the frame is part of the game, but the design is a bit distracting with those gradients. It had some bugs with the jumping that prevented me from totally enjoying the game. Needs balancing, the bar runs out too fast! In general it's a nice idea, I hope you can dedicate some more time to polish it up a bit, could be an awesome game. Congrats! :D

jijaweb 2012-08-27 06:50

Great game and graphics! Very cool idea. Last level is very nice.

xk 2012-08-27 07:09

Awesome artwork! Good job, great game!

bemmu 2012-08-27 07:46

Hands down best graphics! Good sense of progress and goal while playing, kept me engaged until the end, which turned out to be a satisfying Space Odyssey 2001 -inspired (?) piece of art. Real game with a beginning and and, easy to figure out how to play.

thurig 2012-08-27 08:56

Just wow... the graphics are really good! Enjoyed it.

jezzamon 2012-08-27 09:37

INTERESTING although the ending was kinda just like "Hold left to win"

STILL COOL GOOD JOB KEEP IT UP

munchor 2012-08-27 13:28

This art is PHENOMENAL!!!! The best pixel art I've ever seen on Ludum Dare, I'd give Graphics 6 if I could :P

daniel-heidemann 2012-08-27 13:29

A bit easy... But so fun and good Humor. Well done

madpew 2012-08-27 13:45

The art is really nice. To bad there's no sound. I would have liked to hear that guy/thing munching those bushes. Well done.

amidos2006 2012-08-27 15:43

Nice game :)

olav_st 2012-08-27 16:06

I like the way you integrated the theme into the gameplay. Not being able to jump was a bit confusing at first, but then I thought about the theme and I understood it :)

The graphics are great. Very impressive for 48 hours.

The game was kind of short, but there's nothing wrong with that.

kortuga98 2012-08-27 16:52

Very cool graphics and concept. Nice work here.

punga 2012-08-27 16:57

Catchy and interesting game.

orni 2012-08-27 17:44

I love it
eating galaxies is quite fun as well - but the underlying philosophical meaning is what makes it shine
well done

nate427 2012-08-27 18:51

Really cool idea, carried out very well!

amoaeba-junior 2012-08-27 19:04

Loved the ending

emveyh 2012-08-27 19:21

Great graphics :) Was a bit boring gameplay wise :/

sakuyan 2012-08-27 19:21

If this was facebook, I'd like all the comments

steelraven7 2012-08-27 20:06

Cute game goes freaky! Very nice indeed. I really like the small details like the fact that you have to face stuff to be able to eat it.

aschearer 2012-08-27 20:13

Great artwork. Gameplay is a bit too monotonous. It would be interesting to see you expand on the levels to make the player work and think a bit more to evolve to the next stage. The ending was quite interesting!

maxium 2012-08-27 20:20

Graphics were great, loved the shading detail in the idle animation. Could use some sound though

someguy22 2012-08-27 21:00

Cool but needed some audio or maybe a larger level.

gustavodort 2012-08-27 21:02

Man, I love the graphics, I really do!

aaronflippo 2012-08-27 21:03

Pretty interesting game! Nice art. Got a little repetetive in the beginning. End game is pretty weird ;)

luizhgmonclar 2012-08-27 21:48

Concept is really really good, the art is freaking awesome, 5 stars to that for sure. Had fun, but it kinda ended abruptly. It's kinda scary too :D

awesome job

pierrec 2012-08-27 22:05

My new favorite!
This is really great, from the start to the end!

zccc 2012-08-27 22:29

Oh my god, the graphics are amazing, but I can't get too far...

gbear605 2012-08-27 22:36

Great!

buffalophil 2012-08-28 00:43

GREAT animation, nice work!!!

daydalus 2012-08-28 03:22

Really great work, love the fluid animations. At first I was a little confused by the small screen, but love how the view area opened up as the player evolved. Reminded me almost of Katamari Damaci, constantly growing till you consume the universe. Well done!

cosmologicon 2012-08-28 03:56

Incredible graphics! An impressive amount of graphical assets. Especially good job on the last scene. Galaxies are hard to draw well in pixel art. The level design is actually very well thought out, even though there wasn't much to it.

csanyk 2012-08-28 04:43

I actually liked the animation. It was enjoyable watching the creature grow/evolve into new forms. I felt like I was stuck in the beginning area for most of the game, and then it ended abruptly, saying I had reached my limit. I wasn't really sure what to make of that.

flyingbear 2012-08-28 05:26

Excellent graphics and awesome narrative at the end. The sight-limiting mechanic was a nice touch. The 3rd stage dino-esque evolution made me laugh. He just looks so goofy!

nseward 2012-08-28 06:21

This is a game that I wanted to make but didn't have the amazing graphic skills that you have. Hats off.

erephy 2012-08-28 10:22

<3
Just loved your pixel art, (that first guy we play is insanely cute, I wanna pet him).
Idea and the humor at the end is amazing too.
All I can say is some bacground music.
Overall, Excellent job!

keyboardthrashingfactory 2012-08-28 12:18

Despite the difficulties you faced with programming made in your comment youve done a really good job, congrats, very enjoyable game

eyehawk 2012-08-28 12:31

Amazing graphics done in a short time! I didn't have any sound come through though? Also if there was enough time, more levels would have been great.

bereuge 2012-08-28 13:03

Awesome, awesome game. Sure, the gameplay starts to get a bit repetitive in the dino phase but the graphics are sooo goooooood and the ending is both scary and interesting at the same time :) The evolution of the creature is amazing! Great work!

dedhedzed 2012-08-28 14:24

It looks really pretty! Well done on your art. Some really weird symbolic storytelling going on, too. Needed sound, though.

keenblaze 2012-08-28 14:42

Great art + something innovative in the gameplay = awesome game!

revelorenfield 2012-08-28 15:02

Really nice pixel art ! Simple and colorful :)
It's really amazing for something done in only 48h (minus sleep/break) !

simianlogic 2012-08-28 16:27

Great art, polished platform mechanics. Impressive for such a short amount of time!

priapus 2012-08-28 16:53

Really like the artwork. Concept is neat and I had a lot of fun playing. To bad there's no sound.

Liked the twist.

krobill 2012-08-28 17:29

One of the best combination of fun / production value / theme interpretation, i've played so far. Very nice work!

jaj 2012-08-28 18:42

Amazing! I think I got as far as I could go but I was a bit sad to get the same game over screen as before. Amazing entry though!

theballcollective 2012-08-28 19:38

Well, that escalated quickly. Very nice game!

nidjo123 2012-08-28 19:40

What a masterpiece! Graphics are great, idea is very cool. Only if it would be a bit longer! Congrats!

Jeremias 2012-08-28 19:43

I'm really fascinated of your visual skills. As you mentioned in your intro-text, there are problems with animations. Sometimes items disappear. Another part is the gameplay: There should be a competition like avoiding gaps (to fall in) or enemies to avoid. As I said above.... I'm _really_ fascinated respective the graphics.

Do you have a blog or something like that where I can see what projects you worked or you are working?

kato9 2012-08-28 19:57

Really nice pixel art and animation. Gameplay is a little shallow, but the crazy ending makes up for it. Nice work!

darkshadow 2012-08-28 20:09

Amazing graphics, the landscape is stunning. I also like how your field of view improve and your jumping ability with each stage.

sampyxis 2012-08-28 20:27

Wow - really liked how you used the theme - great job

travischen 2012-08-28 20:33

Great work, best game I've played yet!

Ligh7zIncrement 2012-08-28 20:36

Best graphics I have seen for any 2D game so far and no other has even come close, the game itself was also very good. 5 Star Graphics! :)

wibblymat 2012-08-28 21:47

The last bit was, uh, a slightly different tone to the rest. Very nice graphics, and well paced so it kept interesting.

cappagames 2012-08-28 21:53

Awesome graphics and animations. Loved the ending as well.

imef 2012-08-28 22:04

I love that game. Both graphics and gameplay are worderful!

zamando 2012-08-28 22:05

Looks really nice! Really wished it had more to it :)

brotherst 2012-08-28 22:08

Very nice artwork, and a pretty good game. Well done!

qaterknan 2012-08-28 22:15

I like the idea of the limit. But yes, the end was kinda scary. (Btw great graphics)

sakuyan 2012-08-28 22:26

@Jeremias just follow me on twitter I usually dump everything there :D

and thank you everyone <33333

matthias_zarzecki 2012-08-28 23:01

Lovely idea and character! A bit frindy though.

avalonknight 2012-08-28 23:12

That was fun. Liked how the view is limited at first, but widened out as you evolve. I was cracking up at the last portion. I think I spotted a few animation errors, mainly from a programming perspective, such as walking while eating. Just little things that didn't hinder the experience, and the art was so well done that it's forgivable.

diki 2012-08-29 01:01

Fine little katamari-like with a twist ending :) Nice!

josriley 2012-08-29 01:54

Awesome job. The game may have been a little easy (you can stand next to the spawn until moving to the next "level"), but I really enjoyed it. As others have said, the ending was great and the graphics were beautiful. Great work!

tigerj 2012-08-29 02:16

I would really like to see this continued after the comp.

xhunterko 2012-08-29 02:35

Ending. At least I think I hit the ending. Just a little, odd. Great graphics!

bmacintosh 2012-08-29 02:35

This game was an experience. Great job.

thewiseguy99 2012-08-29 02:38

Great graphics, and game. Well done!

davidllanos22 2012-08-29 02:44

Lovely graphics! And weird end! D:

savethejets1 2012-08-29 06:31

I like the ending. Graphics are amazing, great stuff.

echa 2012-08-29 07:28

Wow!

dvdking 2012-08-29 07:54

It was great. Graphics are awesome! The gameplay was rather boring, but the creature grew up quickly so it was quite fun.
The end was really unexpected.

thesarcastic 2012-08-29 10:46

Fun, great graphics, overall best game I played here so far :)

pythong 2012-08-29 11:28

what? you hate hate hate hate programming? then you should consider making a jam entry next time with someone who loves lvoes loves loves programming ;)

robotic 2012-08-29 13:23

Brilliant.

zappi 2012-08-29 13:25

Brilliant graphics, you're so much talented in pixel-art.
Despite the game itself is a bit boring and not challenging enough I really liked the ending, which is beautiful.
Good job!

pinkmonkeyhead 2012-08-29 16:48

That end is so scary hahaha loved it

jomomomo 2012-08-29 16:49

Audio would have been nice, but the graphics are great. Liked how the perspective changed as the player got bigger.

funbyjohn 2012-08-29 17:01

Haha, it felt really scary when you were eating like planets, and galaxies and in the end the universe, great mood points for that.

natenaterson 2012-08-29 17:48

Beautiful graphical style and animation! The ending was surprisingly creepy and thought provoking.

starmen 2012-08-29 17:51

Super nice work. Really amazing atmosphere, graphics were fantastic, and it's one of the few HTML5 games I've played that has felt this good. Really nice work.

nostradamon 2012-08-29 19:14

I love the Worlds Eater at the end!

90sml 2012-08-29 20:16

Awesome graphics. The game has its atmosphere and is very addictive. I would love more levels of this :).
Awesome work

zkenshin 2012-08-29 20:49

Nice job. :)

mesene 2012-08-29 21:07

Im not really sure if i reached the end of the game, nice graphics and concept.

pbdiode 2012-08-29 21:23

Great graphics, wish there was sound!

mach60kas 2012-08-29 22:03

Wow, I adored the art style for this! The ending kinda spooked me, but I thought it was very interesting indeed. The game mechanics are a bit bland, but I think they would end up like that if you put so much effort into the graphics. :) Great Job! :D

krides 2012-08-30 00:43

Wow, awesome! One of the best ones I've seen so far! Good job!

jungorend 2012-08-30 02:35

Wonderful graphics, and wonderful use of the theme. Really quite a gem, I really enjoyed playing it. The mechanics are straightforward but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing in this case.

juaxix 2012-08-30 07:27

I liked the idea of cutting the camera and open as the char grows, the animations and graphics are cool, i miss some sounds and music.


There is no limit man.

vennril 2012-08-30 08:04

Amazing art style and palette. And the creatures are so adorable! One of the few games I played multiple times. Love it :)

khananaphone 2012-08-30 08:54

Neato

cominu 2012-08-30 11:33

I love it :)

yopsolo 2012-08-30 12:25

some graphic glitches on my browser but great gfx.
well done :)

alvivar 2012-08-30 12:47

That's the kind of ending that I like! Nice done!

adventureislands 2012-08-30 14:05

Nice graphics and concept, took a moment to figure out where I was supposed to be going, but managed to finish it. Damn that was one disturbing ending.

dick_claus 2012-08-30 15:23

Nice concept, and pretty graphics.
Required a decent effort to complete.
Thanks

saintheiser 2012-08-30 15:33

Awesome story!!! I like the ending. It is so philosophical! It would be awesome with audio! Nice job!

matheod 2012-08-30 17:31

Finish :p
Really funny.

saturnyn 2012-08-30 17:57

Nicest Sprites I have seen so far, awesome design (music is nice too :).
I got stuck in a wall once but could finish it on second try.

dengzo 2012-08-30 18:04

very well done!

infernet89 2012-08-30 18:22

Woha, awesome graphics! And the idea of a limited field of view was brilliant, good job!

mrdanh 2012-08-30 18:39

Cool concept, would've been nice to see more intermediate stages before the conclusion but there's a limit to how much can be done in 48 hours :)

puzzlem00n 2012-08-30 19:09

Interestingly freaky. Nice job! You have a TON of comments!

gnx 2012-08-30 19:34

An impressive journey you have here. Stellar graphics and unexpected conclusion. Really liked it all.
Gameplay there isn't much, and I find it slightly suffers from the lack of any kind of audio to heighten the moments.

Great job still.

kinokochan 2012-08-30 19:37

Beautifully designed game with very pretty art!
I loved the simple concept and the way I was encouraged to continually interact with the environment.

Pacing between each stage got a bit slow sometimes, as there was often only one thing to consume per stage. That was well worth it though, as the final stage was amazing. I was very amused!

Audio would have been nice, but your amazing art more than makes up for it.

triplevisiongames 2012-08-30 21:05

Graphics really are amazing all the way through, you should be really pleased! Gameplay is interesting and that ending was strange but in a good way. Really love the way this looks and the animation all the way through

cobrajs 2012-08-31 01:37

Graphics were excellent, gameplay was alright. The graphics make up for the gameplay. Interesting concept, though.

michax 2012-08-31 05:23

Woooow, awesome entry! My current number one as for story, graphics and coolnes! Deep shit with the ending :)

nimblegorilla 2012-08-31 19:11

Nice graphics. The ending was cool.

jacic 2012-08-31 19:29

Very nice idea, and not a bad game. :)

devoreuk 2012-08-31 23:13

One of the best entries I've seen so far. Stuck to the theme, great art, great game play, game has a satisfying ending. Just ticks all the boxes.

rabbits 2012-09-01 02:08

Great game and concept, but would have liked more variety

bneutral 2012-09-01 02:22

The humanoid part/ending really creeped me out.

zatyka 2012-09-01 03:36

I thought this was excellent.

miltage 2012-09-01 13:39

I loved the graphics. Game lacked sound but everything else was near spot-on. Great job!

dector 2012-09-01 14:07

Cool looking graphics! Funny game. Good luck!

murrayl 2012-09-01 15:48

Really nice graphics, and some interesting gameplay!

odrega 2012-09-01 22:33

Wow, just wow. I couldn't create graphics that good even if i had a week. though a walking animation would have been nice.

thewiseguy99 2012-09-01 23:57

That was very nicely done and was really fun for me. Good job.

vaelzan 2012-09-02 07:54

Wow lots of comments here. If you are anything like me you are reading each and every one though :) Loved the graphics, they are amazing! Even without sound this game conveyed a great mood but I think music/sound could have added a lot more to it. The gameplay was a little lacking but I didn't really mind because the tone of the game kept me interested. I found the ending a bit creepy so it's quite impressive you managed to get that emotion out of me in the time you had. I think with a tiny bit more polish and introduction of sound this game could be a really special experience.

sclark39 2012-09-02 20:49

Amazing graphics. You may hate programming, but you still did an awesome job. The platforming elements feel very solid, and I love the way the creature evolves. It's a very peaceful platformer. :)

yosh 2012-09-02 23:09

Amazing graphics!
It's really missing sounds and a better ending I guess ^^

angrygeometry 2012-09-03 15:15

nice concept. sometimes when jumping on platforms the character would freeze and you had to move left/right to unfreeze him, but all in all, good work.

free_napalm 2012-09-03 21:38

Nice work with a nice twist at the end, but also the best animation I have ever seen in a LD game.

raver 2012-09-04 09:08

Great animations and nice character movement physics.

spaceoff 2012-09-04 14:12

Graphically very well made, pretty fun too but short. The lack of sound is quite a disappointment and would really have gone well with the rest of the game but oh well.

38leinad 2012-09-05 21:25

the best game i have seen so far.
the pixelart is amazing! you did all this in the 48h? i am impressed!
I love the animations of the entities; espcially the bird and the tail-wacking of the dinosaur. I love the ending. I love the general fell of the controls and the mood in general. i think sound could have added a lot to this; but hey: its only 48h and you have to compromise on something if you have such high-polished pixel-art...

haddy22 2012-09-05 22:36

super polished- great ideas went into this. I loved how as you evolved you got a bigger screen vision window as well. Nice work!

patrickgh3 2012-09-05 23:36

The graphics were nice to look at. I liked the concept. It was also nice how the level was tiny, and had a variety of unique objects, which made it interesting and fun to move around in.

kddekadenz 2012-09-06 17:08

The graphics are good but not perfect. Sound is missing. The concept is very obvious (eating stuff to evolve), I don't like this.
Cool idea for the end.

zx81 2012-09-06 17:34

The game is really cool, although there's no music the game is superb because of the beatiful graphics!

jprogman 2012-09-07 03:41

Cool idea. I'm hoping for a bigger area to find more food so I don't have to wander around the same area constantly. Otherwise, I could see some great potential with this work.

kefir 2012-09-08 16:05

Wow! It was cool. But half-man-god scared me a little

cyboot 2012-09-12 20:52

Really nice game!
Very nice graphics, and lovely animations.
And also fun to play, even if very easy.

You did a great Job!

axcho 2012-09-13 05:12

I liked the art, and I was disappointed that I could not get past the second stage, the jumping creature.

dwallin 2012-09-14 02:21

Nice job! The last level felt a bit out of place however and the bird kept flying the same exact path which made it too easy to just farm it. I would have tried to implement some sort of puzzle type thing to force you to work towards something while maintaining your food level instead of just focusing entirely on maxing your food intake.

chuchino 2012-09-16 19:34

Cute game. It's repetitive but I like the sense of progression and the sprites are great.

ncannasse 2012-09-17 21:27

Nicely executed and fit the theme :) would have love a bit more gameplay and some sounds !

sakuyan 2012-09-18 04:51

Thank you everyone for the awesome comments
