Couldnt quite figure out how to get the pufferfish off the ledges? i tried to go around the course but all my dudes got burnt up even when none of them fell off the platforms.. gonna try again.. again.. but not getting what to do exactly.. ohhh i figured it out. bummer the camera doesnt look back at him when hes eating all the guys. haha.. dang second level is hard.
Took me awhile to figure out the first level, I kept trying to feed him the dudes I was controlling. Then tried to feed him them while they were on fire. Then I found the puffers and put it all together. Second level I got frustrated trying to push the puffer to him when they kept falling off, so I didn't continue.
I liked the aesthetic, and the controls were kind of interesting. It was fun controlling the rolling balls, but I felt the goals led to more frustration than fun. Maybe I just suck and haven't had enough coffee.
Very interesting concepts. Will have to learn more about these pufferfish. There are definitely some nicely put together models here. The pufferfish are actually quite cute along with the hyper balls. The main character is creepy as hell, like he's some kind of fish person that is simultaneously getting poisoned, and is tripping his face off. Nice work with the physics and herd behavior of the hyper balls. Good job.
Graphics are incredible. I was a bit confused about what do do after the second pufferfish. Maybe some in game tips would've helped. The modelling was impressive for a game made in 48h. Congrats!
I've just played your game and and it was a pleasant experience! Although I don't really understand how it links to the theme, I've found the gameplay quite interesting. The levels were challenging but not too hard, thanks to their names. The ambient atmosphere (graphics + sounds) really brought me back to an old 3D Rayman game I was playing when I was a child, thank you for that!
Nice game!!
Took a while to figure out but it was very satisfying to complete.

Great job, especially the art work. With few more polish it should be good enough to release on store.
