great graphics, but yeah I don't think it was really finished enough.

Pretty awesome! Nice isometric gfx. A bit too complex but keep working on it! There is definitely a lot of potential here, just waiting for more polish and simplification. Great job.

I love the graphics and use of color. For some reason, I get a 60's vibe...

That's a nice set of graphics ! I think you should next time focus on a very small playable game, add options step by step so you can end the compo with a playble version.

i didnt get it, fighting didn't happen, who do i fight if i control everyone and why can every creature create offspring with itself? i missed something, didn't i?

Some seriously trippy shit here. I bred my jellyfish with its dead compatriot to produce an army of monsters. I don't know what happened, but I enjoyed it.

Fantastic graphics, but seems like it was too much for 48 hours. Don't get discouraged, though, keep developing it!

I like the isometric graphics - very nice. The interface is a little hard to use - I wasn't initially sure what all the stats and buttons were and how to use them, although I figured them out. There isn't a lot to play here - obviously some goals or an AI would help. Looks like a great start, though, and visually very nice.

Nice idea, sadly you could not finish the other features. It's a bit strange to control all creatures together, instead selecting one at start. But moving, fighting and breeding looks fine (even a turtle died after breeding... is this your message to the world? xD)

You should make a post-compo-version to include the missing parts you mentioned!

Visually it's very nice and it's a good concept that fits the theme. Would be great to see it in a more complete state eventually.

I think you are in the right path, the hexagonal board is great and the "biological" system seems to work ,add some gameplay and serious features ;)

Yes, I am working on a post-compo version. Thank you everyone for the compliments on my graphics.

Sorry, I don't have Windows to test it out.
