The gameplay is SUPER FUN. The graphics are great. The BGM is good. My favourite for this jam.

inzombiak 2020-04-21 14:34

I love the idea!

deadboygames 2020-04-21 14:35

Very nice! I really enjoyed the switching mechanich + the BGM is so relaxing!

sulo 2020-04-21 14:50

The controls could be tightened but otherwise it seems like an idea definitely worth exploring further!

hruy-gashaw 2020-04-21 15:25

Great, the game felt very good to handle. Would recommend.

gronk 2020-04-21 15:28

Some levels are to long with only one respawn point. Liked the art and the 60 horror movie wibe. Loved the player character!

elesz 2020-04-21 15:28

Funny game!! Really appreciate incarning that little maggot.

vulgaris 2020-04-21 15:32

great game, the mechanics are easy to grasp and the music and aesthetic were very fitting, good job :)

kazimainul 2020-04-21 15:42

Nice one, specially BGM and the pickups placements.

claws-up-games 2020-04-21 15:43

Cool game ! a bit repetitive but it has a nice mod !

khorm 2020-04-21 15:44

Wow what a great idea, adorable fitting graphics, some pretty basic audio but it works. I had a little problem with the controls, did not like that you had to repress buttons constantly. It was a bit short, would have enjoyed some more levels but I know way to well how hard it is to fit everything in a weekend jam.

But the game idea is really excellent and fits the theme well, one of the best I've seen so far this LD.

I loved it. The diffuculty was perfect for a jam game

joemid 2020-04-21 18:41

Love the art and music and the feel of the platforming. I wondered if the "charge" move would be more useful- and it was! You taught me through play really well. Also, loved the care that went into the interface main health bar of the character. Thanks for the game!

leokrechmer 2020-04-22 00:35

Absolutely love music! Fits SO well!!! Like in my fav games from real childhood :) Good job!

brndncn 2020-04-23 02:52

Excellent work! I loved the gradual introduction of the mechanics and the gameplay felt super novel. Great work!

sandra-martinez 2020-04-23 03:00

A fun game to play :)

zyllen 2020-04-23 03:12

Nice game. Stuck at third level for a while. LOL

williamcarter 2020-04-23 03:14

This game is great! you nailed the feel perfectly, from the music, to the art, to the gameplay loop. I'd love to see an expanded version of this game with more levels and enemies. Awesome entry!

doctormozart 2020-04-23 03:24

Cute entry. I loved the art & the core mechanic was really unique and cool. :smile: Would love to see more levels for it in the future. The controls could use some work & felt clunky at times + when you inhabit the "charging" bugs, they kept facing the opposite direction right when I gained control over them, which kept making me charge backwards.

Otherwise, solid entry. I made it home! :v:

blackmoodgames 2020-04-23 03:38

men! this was soo great! i loved it. it feels so complete. the level design is good, the art is awesome and the music has that baba is you vibe, which is a game i love

the only thing i can tell is add more levels!

a gameplay i recorded https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAC9iwtyigg

peterfiftyfour 2020-04-23 04:04

Damn this is a good entry! I love the potential for clever gameplay here. I think the movement and controls need a bit of tweaking to feel right but this is great. You can so much cool stuff like taking over bigger and more powerful hosts, moving them around but keeping them alive to do stuff for etc. Also love the music hehe

alex-adedge 2020-04-23 12:30

Ahaha nicely done, I liked the graphics, and the way you can see yourself in the bugs you take over. Music was simple but effective too. I just felt like it could have done with one or two litte extra details, like a splatter when you fell off a cliff.

jakeuro 2020-04-23 14:19

Thanks for all the nice comments from everyone so far, glad you guys enjoyed it!

@blackmoodgames love it when people do gameplay videos, thanks for this!

unept 2020-04-23 14:25

This was great! Game would have become somewhat dull without adding the charging beetle thing and the bat thing. They made it super interesting. Well done designing the levels with the strengths and weaknesses of each "creature." Sweet little jam game.

carlix 2020-04-24 22:30

I enjoyed it, the idea is pretty original and the game was fun.

It would have been great if there was some kind of transition between levels other than just appearing in a new pool. Something like "Level complete", or a small black screen and a "Level X" when you get to the new level.

Other than that, an original idea que cool graphics? Bought!

joemag 2020-04-25 20:57

Super interesting and well done. I liked how everything made sense with little to no instruction. I liked the mechanic of taking over the little microbes, could easily see that expanded out into more of a full game. Graphics and audio were perfect and fit the theme. Great work!

brotherbyto 2020-04-27 00:25

I really like what you did with the theme here. Graphics, sound, and controls are a bit weird, but the game mechanics were really interesting.

eduardogacn 2020-04-28 02:33

good game

badpiggy 2020-04-28 02:49

I loved the pixel art and the main gameplay mechanic. The music was nice as well and set a good mood. I think the jump should have been a little higher cus I died sometimes only cus I wasn't able to reach a higher step. Also, some way to let the player know about the cooldown period at which the charging organism (I'm not sure what it was so just calling it that XD....) can charge. It's a great start, that's for sure. Nice job :)

sodaking 2020-04-28 03:40

This game is awesome! I love the overall atmosphere, and the music fits perfectly (with a lot of grooviness to it :) )

saucygames 2020-04-28 06:38

v nice setting!!

grtodaro 2020-04-28 07:41

Great job. I like it very much!

zennith 2020-04-30 17:43

This is a very cool idea. I really like the way that you can fit in the different types of ways to keep yourself alive throughout the level. Very innovative! Very nice job. Keep up the great work.

93eduardoresende 2020-05-03 02:30

Beautiful art, music and design. I missed a little gameover screen or something that "punished" the player for the failure. But this is the game that I played that most fit the theme in LD46. Good job!

jusw85 2020-05-03 06:19

Great game! I liked the mechanics and mood. One minor thing that could've been improved is the camera/level design for level 3, I couldn't see below and had to restart a number of times to figure out where the platform below me was.

sticmac 2020-05-03 07:02

Hey that’s a nice game you have here! I really like the concept :smile: It’s very fun to play and can be very challenging very fast :wink: Great job!

potato-bot 2020-05-03 08:10

Very good game, brillent concept, the graphics are amazing (the snake alien is really cute), the music is great. overall very solid game.

shadowhaxz0r 2020-05-03 12:08

Nice! One of the more polished games gameplay wise that i've seen. Some pretty tight timings on some of those puzzles with a nice introduction to the mechanics

lazzydev72 2020-05-06 17:26

Nice.... :v: Keep it up.
