The atmosphere and look came together nicely! Props for going full 3D :)

Perhaps the gameplay could be faster/tighter: * I ran out of creatures and died 3 times without killing a single enemy (maybe make it easier to kill the first wave?) * Rebuilding took a while (maybe make creatures hatch faster so you can collect them all at once?) * It was hard to tell what each creature did (perhaps add a basic description panel in the world?) * Consider adding juicy feedback to actions (particle effects, sounds).

I really like the mechanic of customizing your team.

Well done overall, this looks like it took a lot of effort!

I agree with @fre, this game could use all of the ideas they wrote down, I would only add that I think the main character could run a bit faster (it felt like he was slowed down by something). Generally I think it's a very interesting idea for a game, I would gladly play the upgraded version! Also very pleasant artsyle!

Maybe a little description of what doing can be interesting. Or a "How to play" demo.

Like previously comments,the gameplay/character could be faster.

Sounds and particles effects are very good !

I like the artstyle, too. And It's an interesting using for the theme.

The graphics are splendid and the gameplay is very innovative but it's quite difficult to escape the monsters even during the first wave. I agree with the suggestions for improvement made in the other comments and I look forward to playing the improved version. Congratulations.

P.S:69latrik !

Great game, Environment looks great and I like the Evolution possibility

Thanks you all for your constructive returns, glad to see you enjoy the game and the graphics! (our game artists worked really hard) We are working on a cleaner version of the game (the game design mostly: signs & feedbacks, balance, juiciness and debug...)

Like the graphics. Maybe the character could walk a bit faster. Maybe some more feedback of what you suppose to do.( not that mine compo had any better ;)

Art style is beautiful, good work there!

The music, graphics and sound effects is really good. I sadly have absolutely no idea how I am suppose to survive in this game.

Looks cute! Could you maybe write some instructions about how to properly play the game in your game description?

This game is really cute and I like in general that I can breed creatures, and the design of the creatures is very nice, too... I'm just not sure if it really should have no danger at all or if my game just bugged :P Being so, I didn't really feel I had to use my creatures...

The controls also are a bit hard to use, when you have 5 creatures around you it gets hard to herd them around and even click them.

There is a Linux build listed but it doesn't seem to be included in the download.

First of all the graphical aspect of the game is amazing! Well done! But the gameplay was a bit confusing... Didn't understand how to play...

dennis-kostroman 2018-12-17 14:18

So cute!! very cool graphics! way to go!

The graphics and music are very good overall, but the gameplay is lacking. The interaction is wonky and I did not understand what to do without trial and error.

Impressive work - amazing graphics. Colors are gorgeous. Could you write some instructions about gameplay? I need explanation. Cute and well done ++
