I actually loved this game, so simple yet so.. calming (although it gets really rush rush as you go) I love the music and the whole vibe. I wish it stayed more cozy and we could grow the monster more. But jam is short, awesome awesome entry, had a lot of fun (:
I ate 77 sheep
I wish the little monster dude would grow throughout the game
Lovely art and animations, had fun with this one
Really interesting clicker-like game. It was a little confused how to begin, but the hover over tooltip text helped me out. The sheep eating animation is awesome. I agree with the comments to speed up things getting faster, and a leaderboard to see how long other folks lasted.
Cool little game! I loved the eating animation!
This was a lot of fun. I love the overall concept of the game, it's super funny to grow a monster out of an acorn and devour sheep dodging bombs. I also really like the animation that plays when you eat a sheep. I think an addition of a leaderboard would've been great for this game. Great work!
the whole sequence of growing from an acorn into an eyestalk into a one-eyed sheep-devourer was inspirational. it has the energy of a nostalgic desktop pet. I wonder how it would grow further, given the chance, if there was time. overall really fun entry!
Cool game.
The controls are simple enough, but they're a bit unclear at first. I noticed there was some pop-up text, but I only saw that after have played for a while.
I'd also recommend adding some game over text. The game just seems to stop with no message when you hit a bomb, which confused me at first.
Great critique, thank you!
Nice Job!
I really liked the sheep-eating animation. Nice work!
Very cute! Great work!
Nice, cozy submission.
I do wish I could've seen the blob grow even more over time. Where is all the meals going..?!
I wanted to but joined the game jam with only three days to work on the game, so I didn't get to make him grow more!
Simple yet effective! Once I figured out that click was to jump around and not slide on the floor it was really fun lol. I agree with the comment from Kyle Lewis too, the start is fun and once it starts going faster it gets more fun, so maybe make it get faster quicker!
Very simple but strangely fun XD I would suggest maybe up the rate at which the difficulty increases over time - once I realized the bombs and sheep were coming faster I was like "oh, cool!" and it became more fun for me. I also love the quirkiness of how the game starts!
