I was wondering why my health bar wasn't centered... turns out I had -250 health and the game was rendering my negative hit points off to the left.

I'm not really sure what to make of this, it seems very buggy and unfinished, and I'm not sure what it's supposed to be. Sorry.

Well I finished it after figuring out how to play. Although a bug where I didn't 'lose' with -650 hp was the only way I could play the game, and enemies only seemed to attack when I attacked them first and killing enemies was the only way I could get evo. The 10 second loop got old pretty fast, but I do like how you had a different one for each era.

I like the character art, especially the knights.

I was a little lost at the beginning but I like the core idea a lot!

Needs some sort of explanation at the start, apart from that. Fun Fun FUn FUN!

Nice game I like the way you did this one, the music was a little repetitive but cool game

Was hard to understand at the beginning. But fun game!

You can keep on evolving forever!

Really like the evolving part :-)

Good game with lots of blood (when killing an enemy) :) It's a little buggy, it slows down when opening and closing the inventory.
And really fits the theme.

Well I keep trying to get further in it. but i just keep evolving. Like before I get a chance to attack anyone

The characters all look very good, the music would be nice if the loops were longer and having each level as an evolution stage was good. The short-cut to evolution was useful to see the later stages. Equipping items is a bit buggy.

As you've said, there are a number of bugs. Disregarding these, I found the game to be pretty boring. The levels were large and sparse, and killing all of the enemies without dying seemed impossible.

That aside, I really liked the evolution premise. Keeping the controls the same but going one leap at a time into the future was cool.

Game play and controls were a bit hard to get used to but when I figured it out the game was fun. I liked the graphics and sound too.
