Cool visual, and very interesting mechanic, love this a lot <3

kryakikrya 2024-10-07 22:37

Very interesting mechanics. Good job :v_tone3:

I like the simple and clean design in the opening comic. My first jump I realized I couldnt see down and thought I jumped to my doom. Haha

It looks like you hit the same bug we did with the embedded submission, it should be fixed if you follow the steps and upload again! The art style for the preview looks great!

Interesting game, also the mechanics of changing the character are cool, if improved it will be a great game)

kscerri 2024-10-07 23:04

I really enjoyed the mechanics, seems like some really cool gameplay could be built around it. Would be nice if the insects/worm change direction when moving backwards, since it should be an easy change that would make the game flow alot better :)

jony 2024-10-07 23:05

Hey cool looking game and i like that art of the game. Nice to see some non pixel art entries too.

imberny 2024-10-07 23:06

Nice concept. Some sound effects would add a lot! That worm parasite is creepy in a cute way.

francoisvn 2024-10-07 23:09

It took me a while to figure out how to do your parasite ability. Once I did it was interesting :)

zebonny 2024-10-07 23:12

interesting idea that you control different creatures for different purposes

damien-black 2024-10-07 23:13

I really like the idea!

kryakikrya 2024-10-07 23:14

Visuals looks good :)

athaeryn 2024-10-07 23:17

This is such a whimsical and unique mechanic, I love it! The bugs are great. :)

poboy 2024-10-07 23:18

Great use of theme and I liked the different abilities of all the lil dudes, especially enjoyed the animations and the dung beetle going backwards :)

I think the zoom is maybe 2x too big, a few parts felt like leaps of faith.

Enjoyed some of the puzzles. The parasitism angle is really cool. The little comic at the beginning is really fun and nice

jacob-vandomelen 2024-10-07 23:59

I really enjoyed the idea of switching to different creatures and using their abilities. It made for a satisfying puzzle experience. I do wish there was a way to avoid soft locking your self in some circumstances, but it's worth it to go through again. The art and animation were well done!

cookieh 2024-10-08 06:29

overall an interesting game, though level design is a bit tricky and you can softlock yourself easily, but yeah good concept

forshley 2024-10-08 10:57

Looks good, but i have a bug when camera just sinking into the ground...

khton 2024-10-08 11:00

Very cute pixel art, cool animations, I really liked the idea of transforming into other creatures, especially the dung beetle))) Good job

yup1-x0dus 2024-10-08 13:25

Очень милая игра! Визуал просто бомбезный, очень понравилась. Продолжайте в том же духе!!💖💖💖

anton4ik-dev 2024-10-08 13:52

Cool game but russian language on poster is strange

bacontree 2024-10-08 14:39

Love the idea! Was fun to switch between different creatures with different abilities. I also liked the level design!

kirass 2024-10-08 14:44

I really liked the game! The narrative is just the bomb. The idea is interesting! I was hooked for a long time!

tentacledream 2024-10-08 17:16

Ну что, в это было интересно поиграть. Очень забавная идея с паразитическим жуком, единственное что я хочу представлять в какую часть тела он залазит. в целом прикольно, мне очень хватило точек сохранения, ведь в какой-то момент я просто залочил себе игру. Ждём ремастер =)

nevercontent 2024-10-08 17:37

Nice to see that Richard Scarry made a game this year. And it's a good one too!

derllie 2024-10-08 19:23

such a good visual, so fun and interesting!

maksim-shalaev 2024-10-08 20:12

милая игра :3

mechazawa 2024-10-08 21:01

fun game with cute visuals! the idea of getting inside a creature and being able to control them is a fun mechanic. Did really miss some music and sound effects. the comic at the start does really well to set the scene. the motion blurr is a bit off putting though

checkyourgages 2024-10-08 22:48

I love the quiet storytelling here, and taking over bugs is so cool (dung beetle is absolutely my favorite). The bug art is especially nice, thanks for putting this out there :)

vincenttt 2024-10-08 22:53

Nice original gameplay, but in my oppinion u should work on your visuals and it'll be perfect!

axolotluwu 2024-10-09 01:03

Art style is cute, i really love it, but here is some problems with tutorial, So i had some problems with ending game way.

renier 2024-10-09 01:59

Nice concept! really loved the creatures! fun gameplay and I liked the entering a creature animation too.

theresa 2024-10-09 03:05

The graphics for me are fuzzy in some areas like the background, but the creatures are well made and I love the gameplay mechanics! Very creative!

mdsalomon 2024-10-09 07:46

Shocking how cute you managed to make a parasitic worm look. At first glance I assumed this would be a puzzle game, but the focus on platforming turned out to be far more interesting. You can tell that a ton of work was put into the creatures and environment, I just wish the camera was a bit further away since at times it was hard to tell which way I should be going and the red arrows were just out of sight. Great job!

karenchik 2024-10-09 10:41

So cute, I like the presence of cut scenes and very cool drawing!

foshchu 2024-10-09 12:03

Adorable game, I love it

sviborg 2024-10-09 13:26

Игра с самого начала захватывает своим необычным визуальным стилем и интересной механикой управления. Я просто в восторге от того, как здорово разработчики реализовали возможность переключаться между разными существами и использовать их уникальные способности. Комикс в начале игры задает отличный тон. 😂 Визуальные элементы игры, включая анимации, просто великолепны. Я впечатлён, насколько мило и креативно вы смогли изобразить даже червя! Отличная работа! 👍

nasturra 2024-10-09 15:42

This is so funny I can’t stop laughing, I know this situation is sad, but idk why, the gameplay is really good tho !

lllarso 2024-10-09 17:40

The visuals of the intro sequence looked very nice. I like the use of the few colours and the design of the bird, who was holding the little worm.

Regarding the level design: Instead of using the big red arrows, which didn't fit to the forrest theme, you could let the player see the ground or make the elevation smaller. Using your blocks to create something "like a stair" would also work. Try avoiding those arrows and let it be more natural, if you know what I mean.

The mechanic of the different creatures with their abilities is a cool concept. Seeing your next game in the art style of the intro would be very interesting. :) Congrats for finishing your game!

iwant-pizza 2024-10-09 21:43

Hmmmmm okey? But eggs.... and worms..... ok? A game that is misleading

stormburpee 2024-10-10 08:27

Creative and charming mechanics! The idea of taking control of different creatures with unique abilities is really fun, and the intro comic sets the scene nicely. The visuals, especially the bug animations, are great. However, the camera zoom made it difficult to navigate at times, and a few levels felt a bit like leaps of faith. Adding some audio and further refining the level design (especially the arrows) could enhance the experience. Overall, a unique and enjoyable game with lots of potential!

kristallllllik 2024-10-14 10:58

Uh, creative...
