Loved the little guys
I love everything about the presentation! Unfortunately I found it way too hard, starting at level 3 there were too many to keep track of, you'd scan one dude, go to scan another dude, and lose track of the first one. I really like the idea though!
I like the mechanic of inspecting the guys with a spotlight. And the pixel faces are cute.
It is kinda hard to keep track of them when they change direction randomly. Maybe there is a way to highlight the last inspected guy or when you put one on the grass it stays there for a while.
Kudos on trying something new with this game! Game Jams are the best opportunity for that sorta thing.
