Sorry, I don't understand the game.

I like the instructions on this page, however it still was not clear how to do everything. However, I picked it up pretty quickly :P

This is a really cool little game. I did tho get a bug, with the camera just being stuck at a random location.

@notekri yehha i know about this bug and fixed it. I will upload an 'after jam' version soon.

Nice idea controlling the swarm and sacrificing it's units for time bonus. This game lacks graphics and polish but the core mechanics are there and overall it plays quite nicely. If only you had more time to put in some visuals.

I can't seem to get it to work, all of the levels are just a few cubes falling forever, until they disappear off screen...

Nice job !

couldnt get it to work or i was missing something with the game.

@nate-prince @ogelgames make sure to export all files and folders, especially the 'maps'-folder. If a map doesn't work, try another one. I'm sorry for your problems

The game is interesting and it can be fun, but i can't understand the connection with the theme.

Edit: @minemes now i see the link sorry

@lorwon You can choose to trade life for a timebonus

Simple but it doesn't require much more as long as the game mechanics are good!

This reminds me of a "real" game (one for sale) that also had you control a swarm through I think a forest. But I can't remember the name it.

@lakrits [LocoRoco](https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/LocoRoco) or [BADLAND](http://badlandgame.com/), perhaps?

For a game made in 10, it's not that bad at all. It reminds me a lot of badland, as Steffo stated before. The controls are a bit clumsy and some levels are unfinishable. I do not find the theme in it though.

It is a simple game. Easy and fun to play. I like the maps in the menu. I just don't see the theme here.
