It's been a lot of hard work but here we are!

P.S.: Literally spent 24 hours without having eaten anything, pure grinding...

allenw 2023-10-02 21:00

We spent a LOT of time working on the soft body physics of the main character, and I'm so happy with how it turned out!

jangirl 2023-10-02 22:12

Wow! This is such a cool mechanic idea and the art is super cute!! Lover this~!!

buni 2023-10-02 22:14

The interaction with the orb feels great and intuitive. The graphics are nice aswell - well done!

nishikku 2023-10-02 22:15

Love the concept and design! :smiley: The physics are well done :clap:

nonigirl 2023-10-02 22:15

Really an innovative game :) Nice entry. Really enjoyed the graphics and physics.

nathan-d 2023-10-02 22:16

Really cool design and concept, nice job

rmheuer 2023-10-02 22:19

The soft body physics turned out quite well! The art style is also quite cute. What does the 03 in the background mean?

andypang1010 2023-10-02 22:20

@rmheuer It's just a design choice for the lab, it doesn't really mean anything in particular.

poulika 2023-10-02 22:23

Cool mechanic, very fun at the beginning but the counterpoint is that when you reach a certain point, the elements become unavoidable and game over is just a matter of time. However, nice and pretty game!

holysparks 2023-10-02 23:23

This game plays and looks so incredibly polished!

andypang1010 2023-10-02 23:25

Feel free to share how long you've made it in the game!

killnaprimer 2023-10-03 00:02

Great softbody physics on main character! Game is fun, nice art style and overall very pleasant experience :)

devon-chan 2023-10-03 00:04

Hiii I worked on the art for this game! I'm really glad that everyone is enjoying the graphics of our game!!

andypang1010 2023-10-03 00:07

Huge shout out to @devon-chan for his amazing art!

jaspior 2023-10-03 00:09

Really nice game! It would be nice if we could go to game in the instructions screen, without having to return to the main screen

skizo69 2023-10-03 00:20

physics with the bubble works great. BRAVO

andypang1010 2023-10-03 00:21

@jaspior Thanks for the great suggestion! We'll make a patch and upload the newer version ASAP for our players!

jarn0r 2023-10-03 01:11

amazing physics and graphics. So far one of the holy grails I found in this contest :D <3

andypang1010 2023-10-03 01:16

@jarn0r Thank you so much for your support!

zhiyuangu 2023-10-03 03:25

Really nice art works and operations are so smooth!!! Goood jooob!!!

lorelei 2023-10-03 03:32

I really love the art in this :p watching the lil blob change expressions as it grows is cute and a very nice touch. The music fits the game very well!

rorried 2023-10-03 03:37

The graphics for this game are so cute!! I love how satisfying the physics of the blob are.

mortusnegati 2023-10-03 03:39

Nice well-finished project.

thunnus 2023-10-03 03:42

Those physics are really cool. Great look, fun design.

igor-fam 2023-10-03 03:51

Great game! Really unique controls, and pretty well-polished physics

braeden 2023-10-03 03:52

Very fun, at first I thought I was having fun going around and eating all of the food before I realized I was supposed to dodge them lol

yurain33 2023-10-03 04:46

AHHAHdjjdsif... It's fun!

simbishy 2023-10-03 04:58

This was very cute! And well executed. Great job ^_^

junagames 2023-10-03 05:29

such a charming lil game! plays well, is enjoyable & the art is fantastic!

abdul-zakkar 2023-10-03 05:38

Cool game! Strongest point is the art, very well done :) nice audio, fun jiggly gameplay. Things can get out of hand quick though, it might be nice if the bacteria shrunk me more. Also nice use of theme!

henrik-ganard 2023-10-03 05:48

Nice controls and a super polished "squishy"-feeling. You outgrow the space fairly fast but I enjoyed the experience.

bot-hopps 2023-10-03 06:00

no!! no more food!!!

finde 2023-10-03 08:46

Fun physics and adorable visuals. The gameplay is fun and simple. Well done!

bumble 2023-10-03 09:24

Most important stuff first: Final Score 86 seconds :D

I really liked the wacky controls here - you have just enough control to not make it feel frustrating, but also ensure chaos towards the end!

I also like how most of the difficulty comes from your own mistakes in the beginning of the round just up until the spawn delay of food just wrecks you anyways :D

williamullholm 2023-10-03 09:28

Wow this was really fun! The art is amazing and the controls were simple but it felt really polished! I felt like I wanted more "chances" for the bacteria to shrink as the game became very addicting and I just wanted to keep going, managed to stay alive for 2 minutes! But other than that it was a really good game, good work!

heremeus 2023-10-03 11:12

I love the amount of polish that went into the game! The gameplay itself is simple and fun but the presentation is really great! The squishiness of the character is super cute. I might not have survived for very long on the first try as I preferred eating all the food I could get my cell on :P

PS: The tutorial screen is cut-off on ultra-wide screens (3440x1440). The game itself was fine though with white letterboxes to the side.

senso 2023-10-03 12:00

The grind is real!. Impressive soft body mechanic. Like it when you got squished in the room an absorb everything. Easy to understand an good polish. Nice color palet and sweat music . Good jam game .

yorsh 2023-10-03 13:10

Cool idea for the theme. It's fun and well made, congrats!

fosf0 2023-10-03 14:31

Very nice concept! And most important, is fun to play :)

100th-coin 2023-10-03 14:46

This was absolutely incredible. The movement controls were super unique, and it made it an very interesting challenge to get used to. "Easy to pick up, hard to master" is something you rarely find in a Ludum Dare game, but you hit the nail on the head with this one.

The artwork is so cute too! The character being all wobbly and bouncy is fantastic.

I had a record score of 114 seconds, and I recorded myself playing to deliver maximum feedback. Cheers!

2thegamechanger 2023-10-03 15:08

I found it a bit too easy to collect all the food!

Jokes aside i really enjoyed the ironic tutorial and dodging the stuff was cool. I also like the squishy physics a lot. It would be cool if the probiotics would spawn consistently and not so random. Well done! Also very beautiful graphics!

andypang1010 2023-10-03 17:11

I can’t believe that we’re over 50 ratings already! It really isn’t something our team expected for our second ever game jam. We would like to thank all of you who has supported our game and gave us crucial feedback for improving it in the future! We couldn’t have done it without you!

andypang1010 2023-10-03 19:38

@100th-coin That's wonderful! Congrats on making it into the 100 seconds league! Thank you so much for your suggestions!

phillip-scott 2023-10-03 19:45

its.....so.......squishy I love the style and the gameplay was really fun, the softbody stuff was unexpected - the whole game is very well polished and super cute well done.

donitz 2023-10-04 12:09

The bubble physics feel so real.

borabee 2023-10-04 23:27

Very fun game!! I both HATE and LOVE this movement mechanic lol The artstyle is also really cool and unique.

rumiaobsessed 2023-10-05 01:15

This game is hard, but very fun. I like the controls a lot.

teafish 2023-10-05 05:47

This game is really fun and enjoyable!

vera-babchenko 2023-10-05 08:06

hahaha, I liked it!

mistercarson 2023-10-05 13:25

I really commend you for finding a simple, yet really fun gameplay loop, and polishing it as much as possible. It really showed!

jcmonkey 2023-10-05 17:12

super cute game, was a bit rough to get used to the movement at first.

evilmurlock 2023-10-05 20:11

Cute little guy! I love him. Really cool how he squishes, feels really good when he is small. It gets a bit weird when he is big dou, it streches too much I feel. Otherwise really nice game

kairuma 2023-10-05 23:22

Cute graphics and unique controls.

nailah 2023-10-06 13:21

I enjoyed it very much, thank you for this game! First try i died while eating everythin :o. Noticed then to avoid the food and with the controlls it has a certain difficuly added.

nevernox 2023-10-06 19:49

Very fun little game! Controls seemed very unusual, which is good to me - its something new and with a potential to master it) I also really liked coloful and fun graphics) Good job!

shmi 2023-10-06 20:45

Love the controls for this so unique to push the character around rather than move it in a traditional manner, love the graphics and the sound effects for everything. Wished for a little more bacteria to help me last longer but I still enjoyed it so much I kept pressing retry to last just that little bit longer.

olddog 2023-10-07 07:26

nice game , cute art and good for this game jam theme ,while everyone want to be bigger but no one AVOIDING to get bigger
