Nice game! Really nice assets, although they should be a bit lighter, so that you can see them better on the dark ground! Otherwise, well done! (I would really appreciate it, if you would check out my submission!)

Great game! I included it in my GMTK Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Interesting idea and i like the take on the jam theme. The spider noise really made my skin crawl... so i guess its working

Amazing visuals, takes me back to the windows 98 days!! Well done, only concern would be the performance drop near the end, other than that its really good!

Cool game! Reminds me of old pc games in the best way possible. Similar to others my performance did dip toward the end, but I still enjoyed my time with it. Nice entry :)

I'm so very proud of all my spider babies.. now if only they'd call their spider mum now and again. I worry sick!

Nice concept! It gave me Sim Ant vibes, which isn't a bad thing at all.

That's fine! I didn't want to sleep tonight anyway! 

Loved the visuals, and the creeping sound. Really nice idea for a game!

A fun game to play. The art was nice and being eaten by my spider babies was a thought provoking moment. The sound effect for moving was getting quite repetitive by the end though.

Nice idea and good game! The zoom out was a great catch to show the scope of your spiders

OH NO NOT THE SPIDERS!!!

Haha, the fps dropped a bit near the end. Wish there was a bit of a challenge or a goal, however.

Cool idea, but I would have liked a goal or something to aim for.

I was confused at first as to the theme of the game. Then I saw a baby spider... Then two... then... oohh that got out of control xD

Submitted(+2)

Nice idea. It was fun when the amount of spiders got out of hand, although it didn't really pose a challenge due to so many spiders. Also, the performance got out of control so that was true to theme. :D

the idea is brilliant, and those sound had shivers running up and down my spine from the beginning!
