Overall very good and fun game! Graphics is great, but the brown and gray colours makes it a little bit hard to distinguish the characters. Music and sound sets the ominous mood perfectly.
“Cute kaiju” is right! I couldn’t help but cheer my little guy on every step (stomp?) of the way. Actions are super satisfying with the screen shake and crunch effects—and man, lining up a bunch of enemies for a zap…!
Game extremely well finished and very addictive bravo!
I just love kaiju games and retro aesthetics, 5 stars :D
This is fantastic!! Really cool unique idea!! Love the art and the juice too! Amazing work!! :D
also I love the way the kaiju walks back on the game over screen xD
Great visuals and presentation. If I had a critique, it would be that sometimes the pixel art makes it hard to read the controls in-game. It took a bit to recognize the X button was an X in game.
Nice work!
very nice!
cool game!
i like the artstyle and atmosphere A LOT! :)
The game was hella fun and the visuals and audio really worked well together to give the game more personality
very good game, and really good particle effects on cover :)
Impressive art style and game play. I'd like to see more!

This was super impressive! It's amazing how much style and depth you were able to pack into this game. Well done! Here's my playthrough if you're interested.
Thanks for the playthrough video.
Always fun to see what trips up new players with the game, which is usually has been what ROAR and GRAB/CHOMP does. It seems like everyone figures it out as you did. :-)
This looks and sounds absolutely gorgeous, it's got so much style and charm to it that it was an absolute joy to play! Really impressed at how much depth and strategy you were able to work into the game with a simple set of mechanics, was able to steadily improve my score on subsequent runs as I started to get to grips with the gameplay loop
Came back for rating and saying that this might be my favourite from this jam by far.
Voting has not started yet, but the artstyle and game idea alone is a 5/5 for me. As soon as the voting phase starts, I will give a full review!
