I had some trouble with the game lagging and the scaling interface, so my gaming experience was not optimal, although I think that the concept beneath is very interesting; I talk about crafting a creature and then controlling it to fight. Good premise, original.

For the menu, I would place a clear PLAY/START button, as it took me a while to realise that the screen was the target I should click to play.

Is the player meant to have any power from the beginning? I was able to just dash and hit with my sword. It might be useful to place a small tutorial and give the creature some basic powers, so the player starts getting acquainted to use keys 1, 2, 3 and 4. Would do the thing with the creation interface; although he shouldn't be able to pick the most powerful limbs from the start, it would be great to be able to chose in between slightly stronger or faster arms, for example.

It is a personal thing that I hardly stand whistling, so beware that could drive some players mad xD It happened in my proposal, my techno music gets to repetitive, so I added an M key to switch music ON/OFF.

Unfortunatly, the web version suffers from lag during the first second of the boss fight. I guess this is due to the particle effects. A downloadable version is available if you want to plenty enjoy the demo.

Regarding the menu, I gave tips in the description to help the player. Because I have not had enough time to include a lighting for the computer screen (In order to clearly indicate the interaction).

The player can unlock up to 4 skills using dedicated mods. As i mentionned, time was running out , so no mods which unlock skills are implemented (my bad). I took a lot of time (too much for sure) thinking about this concept, the mods and their bonus. 

By the way, you can also jump. Control the height of your jumps by releasing the key.

For the music, you can turn it off thanks to the options menu. You can also reduce the combat sound effects, the ambiant effects and the master volume. For this latter, using + and - keys allow you to control the volume. I am sad.. I try my best whitling the theme. (But ok, i admit it, this is weird :). But this is aberration gamejam.)

Thank you vm  for your time, giving me a nice and detailed feedbacks. That's really helpful.
