Great game! Had similar game idea a while back, good to see it realized! Art and music are very pretty.
Really wanted a pause in body/mind designer though :)

Really great game! The concept is super cool, it kind of makes me think about Spore with management game mechanics. Very classy opening and ending sequence as well.
Maybe the stats are a bit too complicated, or could be re-ordered to make easier to understand. Don't worry, that's just me nitpicking a bit. Overall, very good game!!!

Orbital ArtilleryLovely game, that final quota took me a while to reach, my dudes weren't grabbing all the biomass on screen. Enjoyed it a lot, the art style is beautiful aswell, the alien designs were perfection!

Light Evadevery cool, I love the art style! The Neuromother reminds me of a giant frog, and frogs are cool :)

Bekka the BokkaThe entrance and the beginning pinned my curiosity and wanted me to play, later on it got tiny bit boring but it's not a huge problem. Overall I think the whole idea & execution got very well done and I really enjoyed the game :)

Scale//Awaythis was a cool game! it only lacked a way to see the stats of the current critters we have, because i had trouble differencing the different skins, and i ended up deleting some critters that were very useful to me. but i still managed to make mother health go back to the stars hehe!

Dice Dice BabyPlayed and rated! I really enjoyed it! The concept of being the Zerg Overmind is an interesting one; the art was whimsical and cute, the music fit well, and it's great with the jam's theme!
My only complaints would be more QOL, features, and content, but I think all of those things are just a result of our short time. If you expanded it a bit, this could be a decent commercial game!

Cosmic ReclaimerVery cool game! Soo pretty. I really like the idea and i think it has immense potential. Though I feel like i added stats a bit randomly and most of my choice/thought went into the behaviours .

Hands of the ColossusSo much detail! Incredible job! Also I would die for your Bitbark logo, he's so cute!

King Sized Frogwell, I got to the end. After a few minutes the game mostly just plays itself, the enemies don't pose a lot of threat. Cool creature creation concept.

Bacteriophages"This will do." Great take on the theme and interesting critter system. I found it hard to avoid losing some health in the beginning, but later on nothing was a threat to Mother and her swarm. Very nice entry!

The Boiler RoomI loved aesthetics, especially Mother's animations. Managed to finish it but I don't think I really understood it on a deep level. I wish the information about the characteristics of your critters was more readily available

Keys to GoWas a cosy game, I enjoyed making the different critters, just wish there were some kind of distinction between them. Very nice game :)

King Sized FrogWas so relaxing and interesting watching the little critters do their thing and make the mother grow and evolve, really liked the aesthetics of the game, great work!

King Sized FrogWhat a cool art style, it's really funky! The construction of critters is a really cool mechanic, too. Well done!
