Thank you so much for playing and recording it. I had the biggest smile on my face watching you play. So sorry you didnt get to mate. If only I didn't put the instructions on an automatic load screen.

cool little game! the art style and sounds are really well done! My only real critique is that there is no indication to the player when you are running low on flies or need to regulate your body temperature. Also, maybe have some more flies around because I could barely every find any (it makes it challenging for sure though!) Overall, good job!

I'd appreciate it if you could play/rate my game as well! :)

A pretty cute charming little experience, though felt a bit lost trying to navigate and survive without much feedback for the player to work with.

- Favorite part was the general style, nothing quite like a shadow looming overhead as you manage to find a bush to hide under.

- It would have been nice if flies were easier to find, like if they would hover around rocks so you had an extra marker to look out for them, instead of them feeling random-some attempts not finding any before I died.
Also for me the tutorial hid after practically a second, so with no information on the games page I had to close open and start the games multiple times just to try and focus and read for the split second I had the opportunity to.
The lack of feedback on any HUD-which could be understandable for the presentation of the game-but also explanation as to why you died besides the stats of what you accomplished, meant I never knew if I died from no flies or the heat, which I didn't understand how I was meant to balance because I couldn't tell if there was some indicator for that-besides you slowing down and dying, which could have been that or the lack of food.

Thank you so much. Yea I'm sorry about the feedback the issue was is they were supposed to be audible but I didn't realize how low it was built before it was two late. The fly's had 3d audio to help find them, and your hunger was a stomach growl. I didn't even think of that for the tutorial sorry again lol. I also would agree on the cause of death to be added. Thank you again for playing though!

No worries. Ahh yeah, that would all have helped more, good luck on any refinements you make to it :) .
Thanks for making it :) !

What did I just played ? :)

It was a quite chill experience though.

I don't like anonymous voting, so here is my rating.

Keep up the good work!

I really enjoyed being a lizard! I had a little trouble finding flies, and it was tough to tell what I needed to do to stay alive (like I couldn't tell what I was dying of on one or two runs), but in the end I  was a lizard!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Yea the one big regret in design was volume. I probably had my headphones cranked when I added it lol, but Thank you again for playing.

Excellent game, very interesting premise. Had a lot of fun just being Lizard.
