Incredible game! The art, music, and lore are all spot-on. I appreciate the concept of collecting coins after defeating the boss to maximize the score, although it's admittedly challenging due to the controls. Displaying the score to the player during gameplay would have enhanced the experience, in my opinion. I managed to achieve a score of 160.

Did... did you just copy my comment and rephrase it as your own comment? This is really weird.
Very interesting style, but the music is the real star of the show. Cool work :)

LAUGH Protocolthanks, credit to https://grinfin-great.itch.io/ for the music
Nice cutscene! It was cool to finally play this after seeing your progress updates in the discord server. Well done!

Penguin DeliveryAwesome game, the art, the music, and the lore, are all on point. I like that after killing the boss we just need to collect coins to maximize the score, which is admittedly pretty hard given the controls. I think showing the score to the player during gameplay would've been better. I got 160.

Boxy EscapeThe sweet sweet lore~
I love the cutscene at the beginning. Rat lore.
The style of the game has a very unique feel, and I love it. I do think that you could spend more time in the future on fine-tuning the gameplay, as it currently doesn't feel very concise. Each mutation feels... Odd. Controls switching during gameplay is also very odd. If you gave the player a heads-up, or streamlined the controls, I think it would be much more enjoyable.
Pretty fun! I really like how much effort you put into the lore, and a cutscene. It is also cool how different sludges give you different powers. It seems like you could do a lot with that mechanic. My criticism would be that Harold moves too fast(maybe it depends on your machine?), and it made him feel like he was too big for the stage.
Glad i got to play it. the controls are tricky but its not bad, i kind of enjoyed it :3
hope you liked my gameplay recording of this.

Bio-LuminareReminds me a lot of old-school games like joust, I had a lot of fun with it! The controls were a bit hard to get the hang of, but I think it added to the challenge in a good way
