Really great idea and quite a tricky one too.

Shooting with several guys was very satisfying, but the movement got oddly sluggish and disoriented at one point. Was that intentional?

Great concept, I like that your clones basically work as more lives, so the more you have the... better? Anyway it is really fun to play and I love the models.

There seems to be a *feature* when you leave some clones behind, enemies target them, so you are free to mow them down. Minor stuff anyway. Cool game!

Great idea! Really original! The graphical style is great too, it has got a nice cartoony look.

It felt a bit unfair that the enemies needed to be shot multiple times to die, while you die in one hit. It would be nice if the enemies died quicker. It would make it a bit easier too ;)

Overall very well done!

Really good idea for a game, and it could be a lot of fun, but the controls need some work, the character moves weird and it feels slow and unresponsive. Still a fun game.

The movement feels funky and it's really hard. I like the idea though and it looks nice. It's a nice job overall. Just wish I would see more of it.

It's an interesting take on the theme, the more mushrooms you get the harder is to move together, but you can also more easily kill enemies. Movement is alright, could get some polish, it feels slow to react. The bullets sometimes move really slowly and other times fast, so it's a bit weird. I feel that there should be health for all enemies/clones. THis could add more depth and strategy to the game as in moving around to have the most health in front, and less one in the back.

I enjoyed the couple of minutes I played the game for, and we understand the hard work needed to create something like this, doing everything by yourself in such a short time-span, especially if you go 3D!. :) Our team also worked hard to create a game for the jam.

Really liked the game idea! It should be explored more into a puzzle/action game! Well done! I agree with previous comments that the controls got "weird" when you had clones, but maybe that was intentional? Maybe it should be refined a bit more though?

It's very good to control many characters with one movement. Good concept and good approach with the theme. I loved the game :D

The game was fun :-) I liked the element where you end up with a huge army of guys... it definitely made it more challenging.

Game is well polished and fun to play ! It would match the following theme : "the more you have, the better it is" :D
