The note in the description helped when I first started playing it. I really enjoyed using the foot smashing mechanic where you drag the feet with your mouse. It didn't feel clunky and was enjoyable when I ate the fruit.

Good job to the both of y'all!

Great game! I was having a lot of fun smashing. I was thinking of pac-man, when you get that power-up. Can I show game-play of this game on a video?

Thanks a lot! Yeah for sure you can show gameplay :)

Awesome, thanks again. I finished editing one of the videos. Playing Games from GMTK Game Jam 2024 is the link. Good job on your entry. Cheers.

I had trouble to find the "far side of the level" as you said, as a player i don't know that the direction where i should go it up/north, maybe that could help. Beside that, I also found very fun to become the giant, try no to step on those poor civilians but do it on purpose on the one chasing me thought haha. Pretty cool !

True, I made the description text a little clearer. Thanks for playing!

I escaped! The giant mode was really cool and wish I would have gotten more time to play around in it.

Cool idea! The "scale" mechanic is very well implemented and truly engaging. The gameplay loop from stealth to destruction is very fun :) There's great potential! Excellent work!
