How does your game fit the theme?
As it dies, the mutant can respawn and change its form thanks to its egg. Hence, its end is only a new beginning. As long as it fed on biomass...
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
No. I made all the code myself, following several tutorials when needed. I used external assets for the tileset, the music & the SFX, all credited. Other assets are made by me.

Really nice game! Nice Graphics and atmosphere! Though most of it felt rather like a tutorial and the game felt a bit too overwhelming after the second room. Maybe consider watching GMTK's video about Super Mario Maker 2 Level Design, as it also presents a lot of concepts for other games. One you could apply to this one is letting the player getting known to the mechanic before combining it with other mechanics. Other than that, this was a good game! Good job!
Yeah I didn't get much time for level design, I already planned to add some levels in the week after the jam rating period.
I'll check the video! Thanks.
Really liked the take on the theme and I thought it was pretty well polished. The controls were a bit rough when trying to deal with the turret fire. As others have said - I had the puzzle figured out but executing it wasn't as easy. Otherwise, really great work!
Good work! Very good idea and I think it fits the theme in a way that I haven't seen so much in the Jam. I think some of the puzzles have a problem where you already figured out the solution, but actually executing it is complicated since it is very hard to dodge the turrets with the controls, I might be doing the puzzles wrong though. I didn't get too far because i'm not much of a puzzle guy but I enjoyed the time I spent on it.
Yeah the bullet were add to implement, but I already planed and started to fix it. As you say, they shouldn't be a obstacle to solving the puzzle if you figured it out already!
This is a really fun puzzle game! The fact that you have to consider the level design and the different abilities that the mutants have is very engaging. This is a very solid game and very well thought out. Nice submission!
