Got stuck a few times and didn't understand at first that I had to eat everything to be able to proceed. Visually it is very nice and I liked the controls and concept. Well done!

Wow what a wonderful game! I love the idea of growing more every time you enter the pipe. The game bugged 3 times when I tried entering it but once I figured out it was because I didn't eat everything I was ok. The look is wondaful. Same goes for level design 💛 I would've maybe add areas your can only access when you get big. Otherwise it feels restraining every time you grow instead of being a new adventure. You can be proud of what you made, that is an awesome game 😄
Really cute game! I got stuck a couple of times but retried and got through. Nice one!
Fun game! The title caught my attention out of the submission page, and drew me straight to it.
I really liked the gameplay controls and audio. Like a few other folks, I got stuck on the pipe, but everything else worked great.
Good job!
fun little platformer and good sounds and music! a couple of places you can soft lock, between the tree and cloud and on the pipe rim; perhaps a forced respawn from checkpoint hotkey next time! great job for 48 hours!
This game uses sound effects very well. The footsteps are cute but not overbearing, and the ladder sound is a nice touch. I was able to progress down the pipe twice, but afterwards, the little guy would just say "I'm still hungry", and I would get stuck. On reloading the page, I was not able to progress down the pipe anymore.
Yup, sorry for that, you're supposed to eat 3 creatures each round, then you can go down the pipe, if the alien says I'm still hungry, this means, he's not ready to go down the pipe. I missed a line of code and now the controls get blocked no matter how much food you've eaten, but if that's less than 3, you won't be able to progress :D
It feels really polished. But i still managed to get stuck :D
Controls feel nice, but last size of the character made it quite hard to move around. I think it could be more interesing to have character grow in size as you eat stuff. I liked this one!
Controls are really good. I passed the pipe some times but I also get blocked 5 times... so I stop here.
Still, that's one of the most "professional" game I've played so far for this jam.
Fun game with a very cute ending. I did end up getting stuck between platforms on the first level and had to reset the game few times but overall a really good time. Great work! Keep it up!

The idea of a growing character trying to resolve the same level each time in different ways is awesome. I got stuck at some points as other people said but this is one of the best game concepts I've seen on the jam till now. Funny ending also (05:03.79). Great job. Congrats! :)
Comfortable control and Nice SFX! But I'm bit confused about the goal of the game.And I always stuck on the blue pipe after that the only chose is to restart the game:(
Interesting concept. I had problems figuring out what is eatable and in the end got stuck on a tube:

This game's concept is a bit similar to mine hehe.
Loved the idea of getting heavier and having to search for things to eat in the map.
My only complaint is that the game needs a bit of polish.
Cute game concept! The character getting heavier was a neat twist.
There was a bug where when I tried to go down the pipe on the first level without having eaten everything, my controls froze and I could not unfreeze them.
