Thanks a lot for the deep feedback! Really enjoyed your game too so it's great to have such a good game dev give me feedback lol.
This was my first game and first game jam so I'm definitely happy you enjoyed it that much!
I think I spent so long trying to make a fun procedural generation for the animals that I forgot what the game was actually supposed to be about and ended up making an idle game lol, I'll be sure to keep these tips in mind for the next one :)

Wow for a first jam this is impressive, over focusing on a single mechanic is the dawn of many devs, and I don't think there is anything wrong with this being an idle game, I think i said the wrong genre even, I meant to say incremental game (like cookie clicker) making a alien zoo where you grow to infinity would be really fun :D
Thank you for the kind words <3
