How does your game fit the theme?
Instead of the regular alien shooters, you can now switch roles and play as the alien while protecting your species! The initial idea was to switch the movement of the player to the camera, so the user could only control the player through moving the camera. The player would bounce off the camera view limits, so the player would have to choose carefully to maneuver with the camera. But due to time constraints and because I'm participating in the jam solo, this feature sadly couldn't make it. But still, you can switch roles and take on the human invasion, Enjoy!

Great idea. I'd have like having a highscore system. Well done!

Pretty fun game. Sacrificing my life for the existence of an entire species was pretty cool, but being an alien didn’t feel powerful enough for me (or maybe it was how it’s supposed to be). And the UI is gorgeous!

Fun game, a little harsh once I realized that you could destroy your own eggs haha. The challenge makes it fun

The universe can be an evil place ;D. Glad you liked it!

It's a bit difficult, but was really fun! I missed point-and-shoot games, they're way too rare nowadays. Also, love the art! I definitely think this would've benefitted from some more strategy such as protecting the eggs with a coo or taking them to a safe place without moving too fast as to break them. Overall a really fun experience :D

Very nice game! It is really difficult to protect both the eggs and yourself so I end up dying quite quickly so it would be nice to have some other forms of defense. I think you made some really nice art as well, good job!

Developer
