That was great! They kept sneaking up on me because they camouflaged so well in that environment. The sounds were a big part of the comedy for me, too.
If there were one thing I could add, I would have loved to be able to climb all over the structures.
Oh and it ran super fast!
I think the jumping had a couple bugs that would make me "bounce", and it was hard to see where I could actually land. Overall it was fun, but I got lost in the maze because I couldn't see the walls on the minimap well enough. Everybody else already spoke my thoughts about the head bobbing and movement. I found the lighting to be a little overwhelming. It was hard to see things far away, and close up they were too bright to see. Good job. 3d mazes are awesome.
I'm having trouble downloading it from dropbox. The link brings me to my own dropbox account
"Someone died" made me laugh. Also I'm curious as to why you chose not to use the arrow keys.
Interesting graphics and polished menus! Made me wonder about British history.
I wish there were a lose condition though. That would have captivated me longer, I think.
I couldn't get E to do anything. I wasn't sure what I could interact with. It looks like there's a lot there, but I couldn't get to it with the steep learning curve of just figuring out what my ability is. One time I made something turn, but I couldn't replicate it.
I came for the attractive wide brush strokes, I stayed for the surprisingly addictive gameplay, and I left after I tried a billion times to get over that long set of columns.
I liked each individual art piece, but I do think they could have had more "blend". Overall simple but fun and frustrating. Took me back to yelling at Leo Steel
I can't imagine starting a game jam and thinking "Let me get out the video camera." And the gameplay is a classic. Awesome entry.

I'm in absolute envy of the pixel art

Super polished graphics and sound effects. It made getting a new ship feel good, but damn that is one frustrating game!

Really cool movement (reminds me of boids?) and engaging simple mechanic. I did hit a wall after the second hive. Like others said above, it could use some balancing, and became sort of a "puzzle" trying to find the single hive you could next consume. In 72 hours? Impressive to say the least.

Fun and satisfying gameplay! Really nauseating camera though, I think it might be helped by reducing its max acceleration.

Interesting powerup interactions. I like how some of the items have effects built off of "unused" items in your inventory. It would be cool to see this built out with more classes and items. Technical note: It might be better to fully recalculate the player stats whenever the inventory changes. I think a couple bugs I saw (negative defense, infinite attack) were caused by errors in modifying the values over time.

Interesting concept! I'd like to see how this evolves with more fluid animation and movement. It would be helpful to have some visual indications of which are the leaders.
