Looks like you tried to do a thing where you have to manage the population to keep the ecosystem stable/alive? Good job anyways, maybe next time you can finish more of the game :)

Quick reminder to get more players: Use a thumbnail for your game. Otherwise your game is presented with this grey box. Some great Games are not played because of a missing thumbnail ... You can still change it by editing your submission page :)

Good on you for entering anyway!

I couldn't really figure out what was going on (but I got a streak of 2, somehow...). Still, the UI is really clean and responsive, which is not something that can be said about all of the other entries. :laughing:

Hey, it was amazing that you tried! I think I understood what I was supposed to be doing on the game, that's already something. Next time you'll get it!

I can see the direction you were trying going in with this. I hope you continue to work on it because it's a good idea!

Good on you for sticking it out and submitting anyway! While I see where it was going, it seems like it'd be pretty complex to try and finish in such a short time frame by yourself.

I'm not sure what's happening, but I like to think that I am winning - the Frulzoodgag is doing really well, ever since it survived the Great Starvation Event of Month 8 where I put in a bunch of large carnivores without any herbivores. I dunno what you were thinking to put in the big black space, but it'd be cool to see these numbers graphed - that tends to make sciencey games way more legit :P. I kinda get the impression that the game might continue running for a long time. These numbers are big and they seem to be getting bigger.Screen Shot 2020-04-22 at 10.06.42 PM.png

I think this may be a world record.

haha nice :D I had the same idea and also didnt quite finish, its fun too see how far each of us got within the time limit

am also very curious about how you handled some stuff under the hood, gonna check the source :) great job!

I'm glad you submitted it even unfinished, this was a nice idea of population simulation : I think I would've really enjoyed it if you had managed to finish it :wink:.
