I enjoyed this but the crosshair placement was SO off. I think this really just needs some polish and then some more intricate levels, but the baseline work is there. Scaling could be cool to have on the scrollwheel, look into it :)

Great job overall!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback, we will absolutely consider it! I’m glad you enjoyed the game, and thank you for playing!

I am sure that by repairing some bugs that other comments have already mentioned, this would be a game that would definitely put on the desktop of my computer. Great job!

Developer

Thank you! As you guessed, we are looking in to the many bugs and issues and plan to develop the game further! I’m glad you enjoyed, thanks for playing!

I had some real trouble with shooting the enemies to the point where I felt like you would've been better off exploring the mechanic of changing the size of the environment / yourself more and not had the shooting at all, because I did find what you were doing with the size of the environment interesting.

Developer

There’s a few issues with the shooting at the moment, but we’re looking to fix this as well as many other things in the future. Thank you for playing and thank you for your feedback!

Nice game :) I liked the controls and the mechanic. Maybe try to make the enemies attack the player even if he shoots them from far away. Other than that it was really fun. Great work!

Developer

I’m glad you enjoyed the game! We’ll definitely consider giving the enemies a bigger detection range.

I had fun with this! I see a ton of potencial on this game, but i spot problems during the gameplay that could be resolved:

*Sometimes when you Grow up back you can clip through things.

*There's lack of feedback while shooting enemies, a simple sound or effect could make the difference to make you feel you killing them for real, you shoot them but it feels like don't at times. However the Ambient of the enemies is very disturbing :S!

*There's a weird bug where if you click Restart and try to pick up a cube you can't anymore, very interesting.

I want to say, it is a very good game! With these 3 problems solved your game is going to be at the next level!  Keep this great work guys :D

Glad you enjoyed the game, and thank you for the feedback! I appreciate you being specific about the bugs, because some of these we weren’t aware of. We’re planning to develop this game further, and hope to make it much better than this early prototype. Thanks for playing!

There is definitely potential here! Right now things are kind of unclear, the graphics and audio could use some updating, and there are a few glitches here and there, but with the time constraints, those are understandable. I would love to see this develop further!

Developer

Thank you for playing! We are planning to develop this game further in the future in many ways. I’m glad you enjoyed the game!

Great potential! I liked how you used the size mechanic for both the player and the enviroment! Took me a while to figure out I should shot the green people's eyes 

Developer(+1)

I’m glad you enjoyed the mechanics! Having to shoot the eyes may have to do with an issue where the cursor doesn’t get centered properly once you tab into the game as the level loads. This was something we discovered last minute, but we are looking to patch in the future. Thank you for playing!

ambitious, which i like to see!
having a tutorial so I can practice each of the controls in isolation would be 💯

Developer

We were originally going to have a voice-over with subtitles to explain the mechanics as you go through the level, but we ran out of time to implement it. A separate area to practice mechanics is a great idea, and definitely one we’ll take into consideration as we further develop the game. I’m glad you enjoyed!

The green AI is really creepy! But good try overall!

Developer

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the game!

It was really cool to reach the end ! :) I like this concept

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the game! We hope to further develop this concept into a more polished and fun game as we put more time into development.

Wish you the best for this project ;)

Really struggled, and couldn't get my head around the controls to make the first box big enough to get up the ledge. But well done making the first person controller, and really good submission all round!

Developer

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the game! We had intended to make a tutorial voice-over with subtitles, but ran out of time and had to hope that presenting the keybinds on-screen would be enough. We will 100% take this feedback into consideration as we continue to develop the game!
