✔️ I really like the use of the theme. This could be expanded in so many ways. Nice job.

✔️ The game is quite intuitive.

➖ It was quite easy to get blocked by other creatures, which was a bit annoying.

Cool idea. At first I struggled a bit because I got stuck in the hole out of the cell and thought maybe that wasn't the right way to do it anyway, but at some point I tried again and it worked :D

During our brainstorming phase, we also briefly thought about having some sort of sci-fi parasite that links people together! We ended up going with magic instead, though. Good job with the game!

Great idea! Maybe make the water stand out from the background more with outlines?

Very cool idea! I like taking a new host and wondering how it'll be a benefactor to progression, very nice! Possibly speed up the gameplay to have a better flow? As well as making the water have a small hitbox, ran into it a few times on accident

It is just screaming a gremling bursting out of its skin when "it" touches the water.  The powerup element when "linking together" is very neat design!
