That was fun! The death animation was cool. Fun blend of mechanics and great for the theme!

This was really fun! Very well made!! 

The art, animation and mechanics are great and polished! The theme was on spot too!! I loved the idea of walking to grow the  dung ball! Katamari vibes! haha

Great job to the team! ✨✨💪

well, i can't really dislike such a great game to be honest, it kept me on edge the concept and the atmosphere was really well made, as of a feedback you might try making like a dash mechanic since it gets super hard at the end and i have to make the dust more bigger for them to die and i get slow cuz of that, but overall Great game! keep up the great work!

The challenge of this game really ramps up and its a lot of fun. Big thing that I feel is missing is some kind of timer or scoring. I'd like to know how long I survived without having to time it myself.

high quality work here on all accounts - well done team. my only wish would be to set the dung ball on fire when rolling it through the fire to kill dem zombie bugs with rolling fire dung.

Really great game! It took me some time to understand the mechanic, but after that, I have to say it's a really well-made game. I love that you took the time to add small details like the fire spark when I throw the ball through it, the bugs’ glowing eyes, the player slowing down as the ball grows, and the music changing when you're on your last life.

The dung-rolling mechanic is both hilarious and satisfying, and the visuals and sound design are top-notch. Overall, it's a fantastic and polished game. Great job!

What a superb polished and fun game! The mechanic of collecting dung and then rolling it was so good! Visuals and music were great. Amazing overall!

Awesome game! Everything looked great and felt smooth. If there was anything I would suggest, it would be to make the eyes in the background blink so they feel more alive.

I liked everything about it, the music, sounds, art, mechanics, everything. Specially how you load your weapon and how you start the game. The ending was also great. 

It would have been great if you also had a 'score, a 'survived time 'or something like that to make the player feel rewarded and motivate them a bit more to keep going. But even without that, it was still fun to play. 

It is also one of my favourite games of this game jam.

The music and aesthetic of this game were awesome. Making giant dungballs to roll? Heck yeah! Good job ^.^ 

Submitted(+1)

Really good game! The visuals and music were on point. The game play was satisfying and I liked the idea of moving to create a dung ball! Great work!

Beautiful game, from sound and music to animations, it is a really balanced game, but it needs some work in player mechanics, for me, like the game when the developer puts more effort into sound and animation rather than so. 5/5 

Submitted(+1)

Unfortunately there's no high score system for me to show off how I did, but the death animation at the end was quite impressive at least.

It seemed like I was getting caught up on terrain or something after the fire's radius reached a certain point. I'm not sure if it had expanded to the fullest size or not, since being slowed down like that led to getting walloped.

In so far as games about rolling dung go, this is probably the best one I've played!

Submitted(+1)

Very fun game! Was able to play without getting hit for a while but then it got serious and I really dropped the dung ball. Good, unclean fun!

Submitted(+1)

I never thought I'd write this, but man! rolling and throwing dung at bugs has never been so fun!

Great work, y'all!

LOL!!! LOVED this game! more people should play this, very well done and polished. Simple but very fun. Great work.
