Thanks for participating in the stream, here's the VOD clip:

All the cute and goofy creatures reminded me of Spore; I had a few scary moments where I nearly got sandwiched between two giant monsters! Nice work!

I'm sort of seeing a trend of Feeding Frenzy inspired games, which I totally expected from this kind of jam having thought about the concept myself at one point, but I can appreciate one that tries to stand out with additional mechanics such as level up choices and attacking enemies directly.
However, it is a 2 days game and definitelly suffers from it. I quite appreciated and enjoyed what you were able to make in such a short notice and the ideas you pitched yourselves on the game's page I do agree would spice up the game, so your direction is definitelly going the right way!
All in all it's an enjoyable and addictive game despite all, just could have used quite a bit more time in the oven that unfortunately wasn't there.
Really loved this concept, only just wish it was a bit shorter and the controls were a bit more snappy! The design of all of the characters is also cute in a funky way :)
Thanks for the stream submission! Very cute graphics, and the gameplay works well. Good job!
Fun and engaging: I like the style and I appreciate that you brought together a complete playable game with music and a progression system.
One playtester comment: When playing I didn't ever feel the need to buy the damage upgrade though. It never felt like I wasn't doing enough damage to things and I preferred to just hunt the creatures smaller than me anyways as faster kills
Nice work, love the background! I played it through until I was the biggest :)
Fun game , i love the different sprites and the vision powerup (which is very important), congrats on finishing the gamejam!
