Decent. A bit distracting looking at the kill menu on the side + back at the action. Would prefer to kill by an area-of-effect to kill particular units. Good job on the concept.

Interesting idea. I didn't realize at first that your reported score would just be the final number of guys alive - if I were optimizing for that, I wouldn't have snapped so many folks in half. Fun concept, fits the theme, easy to understand, and fun to watch. Nice work.
Definitly interesting, would have to play to get a good grasp of how to keep a race alive, but overall nicely done!
Hi! I like the game! Even if it's quite simple - the core concept is nice. I'd love to see some more features in this. Sometimes I felt like I had very little control over what was going on, and maybe other powers, like pushing some guys around, or being able to freeze some creatures for a short while, would be really awesome! I agree with the other comment that looking back and forth between GUI and gameplay was difficult at times, but it wasn't too bad.
I like the concept but as a sim player it was a bit frustrating to not be able to fully enjoy the simulation unfolding below, as I had to keep focus on the population numbers and the kill rules. Nevertheless it was a nice experience :)
Very good concept! For the first seconds I wasn't understand how I can sacrifice creatures. But after few moment I saw left panel. Nice game :) My score is ~60 seconds :)
I guess I'm dumb 'cause I always lose in seconds and I don't really get how to get better... But I'm amazed by the fact you've done this in a few hours ! I'll try your other games :)
My highscore was 22 seconds lol
Quick, fun, clever.
One of my favorite games this jam. You have to have an eye on all what's happening on the screen and think fast.
However it misses a little something to make me try again and again. Perhaps a little more control somehow? A score based on the time you last seems more interesting.
I really enjoyed to play. Good work
interesting concept. Hard to have all the rules in head, though..
Really fun game, its kinda hard to keep track of who hunting who without any special indicators, but still its interesting simply to watch on the screen, without even halving anyone, and placing bets on who will win :)
Managing each species to have enough members so that a peaceful together or rather a 'eat and be eaten' is possible: really neat idea!
I like the unique gameplay mechanic. I only got around 50sec.
Took me a while but that eureka moment was great. :)
