Use of the limitation
By adding explosions as the kill mechanic, there are barriers that form. This adds a sense of strategy as you do not want to block escape routes while also trying to defeat the enemies as quickly as possible.

Great game! Dual controls, trying to control the 2 characters at once adds an increased level of difficulty and strategy with the craters, though timing the fusion to kill bugs was really difficult, the point where the explosion killed enemies and the point where I took damage seemed to be too close, I took damage when I didn't think I should, so I think a bit larger explosion area would help, but it was a lot of fun trying to shoot the purple bugs and kill them before the others came so then I could explode the ground ones, great job!

Awesome game! I really like the concept of fusing having a permanent effect on the environment. The art is amazing as well! The camera did seem to lose track of me if I went past the edges of the screen, although I can't tell if this is intentional or not (it looked like it was trying to follow me). Awesome job!

Very nice game overall, and the art has a very nice feel to it. I think the explosion sound is a bit loud, but other than that, no major complaints.

One bug I did find though, if you spam space bar, you do tend to glitch outside the map.

Loved the art and the music. Really addictive!!! The collisions glitched a bit when the bugs collided with the slime and I was unable to move. The controls were a bit challenging but after I got the hang of it I enjoyed.
