oh gosh this is great! neat presentation, I like the visual effects. It's a bit hard to tell apart the body parts and the living humans, but understandably that's a bit difficult with a top-down perspective. (maybe an outline/circle around the still living people would help) having your abilities bound to different body parts, and losing them when those parts are removed, is a super nice touch. adds a lot of character to the game for something fairly minor in the grand scheme (and uncontrollable anyway, at that).

music is great, and the sound effects are super juicy. overall lovely little game :)

Pretty great game not going to lie. Nice use of juice. I really like the blood splatter effect

The first two levels are a little bit unclear, as you have to infect an enemy three times to kill them. However, the game becomes absolutely clear and fun to play on the third level because of new enemies with guns. Movement is smooth and enjoyable, visuals are pleasing, but in my opinion, you could make the aberration effect less intense.

Really nice game, the PP on text in main menu and ending makes it hard to read, also i was kinda confused in the tutorial, there should be just a button to finish them off, it would be really cool, if when exiting the body, the enemies would still shoot at that guy, so you could like bait enemies to kill each other, difficulty curve was good, but the last level wasn't like hard, just it actually required strategy, previouse ones were mainly just action game, that one was more of a puzzle, which i preffer, just that the rest of the game didn't really make you think so this gameplay change isn't the best

Loved the minimalistic colour pallete here. Things were nice and readable. I also loved how there was an element of stealth in almost every level, making it really feel like I'm a parasite trying to infect this brain. Especially that last level, it made me feel like a real monster by picking off enemies one by one. The infecting mechanics were cool as well. Infecting a guy and shooting someone else never got old lol. However, I didn't like that you had to repeatedly infect an enemy to kill them. It felt a little unintuitive. I also felt that it was a little hard to tell the damage state of an enemy, especially when there was blood and body parts all over the level. Still, it's a really great game and I enjoyed it from start to end

The game looks amazing, sounds incredible and feels great. Playing was fun, however I had some problems with the main mechanic, the fact that you had to kill hosts by exiting them 3 times, was a bit dragging, made the end of the levels always boring (because it was tedious, you just exit to reenter the same body various times), this is specially noticable when the guns appear in game (the last level was very intense), you already know that you will win, you just need to do some extra transactions. Apart from that, very neat entry, congratulations!

Such an awesome artstyle, fun gameplay as well. Everything was very striking and clear visually. Sounds are great too. I do think it took a bit too long to kill enemies simply by infecting them, as the rest of the game is relatively fast paced between deaths once guns are added to the mix. I typically found myself killing enemies using the gun and then there being one enemy left which too a lot longer to kill, slowing down the pace a lot. Very awesome entry regardless, favorite visual flare so far.

I really liked the artstyle, this game is dripping with a really cool ~vibe~. The mechanics are well polished and feel great to play!

Artistically pretty and minimalist. The sound is dinimic. And the game play make the job. Great set for good game. gg ;)

Really punchy, tight controls and polished to a shine. Great work

Loved the game feel and the graphic style! Super punchy and cool game, congrats :)

Love the aesthetics of the game! Great gameplay and feedback from the actions. It's a nice game you have here!

Amazing graphic, sound and feel. Reminded me of Ape Out. I would recommend a tutorial, initially felt a bit lost on what to done when I possesed a NPC. Still, this game oozes style.

Cool concept, nice presentation. Fun, fast-paced gameplay. I see a lot of potential here, I can imagine infecting different people granting you different skills or weapons (but there's only so much time in a jam).

My only suggestion would be to have infected people die in 1 hit instead of 3. It feels like now it just slows down the game and doesn't really add anything.

Good game, congrats!

I really like the idea here. My only complaints are that it takes too many hits to kill. I feel like 1 should be enough. Also aiming when infecting a gunner is pretty tough.

I like the idea behind this game and with some little changes this would be extremely polished. I liked the main mechanic of the game and it gives you the possibility to include several other interesting mechanics such as the shooting one. The two suggestions I'm going to make are: that the enemies take less shots to die, and to improve the visual feedback for when you lose the body you infected because when there's a lot of things in your screen it becomes hard to see when you lose your second body. Maybe add a sound feedback for this too? But overall this is a nice and fun game, congrats!
