Nice game!

I liked that the main organism has a sort of that forces you to be patience instead of being fast. This happened more when i got caught by a obstacle, trying to complete the level more faster but resulting me in lose more early at a level. (specially occured on level 3)

I liked that on the level 4 it had a rock music and got surprised when the boss actually moved outside of the spawn, that caught me out of guard.

I completed 4 levels and didnt complete level 5 (not sure how many levels are there in the game) and the objective of the game got abit confusing at the beginning since i didnt read the description first.

Thanks! For your information, there were 5 levels, though it just freezes when you reach the end of level 5 due to a mistake on my part. The game was originally supposed to have a narrator to give out (incorrect) information from which you could deduce the goal, but I was still trying to figure out the engine and ran into some problems, so we focused on making the game playable within the time frame.

Nice work, I love all the art for the organisms and the music is great, I enjoy how it gets increasingly chaotic as you progress in levels.

I lost track of how many levels I did but the last one I did ended with me just freezing so I think I completed it?

I had a bunch of fun, giving your character that bit of acceleration really makes the whole game, you want to speed through some areas and your hubris gets you and you lose all your progress.
And the mechanic where you get bigger as you eat was a nice touch as I made a mental note of which order I should do things considering my size would make things more difficult, it added some nuance to the levels(Although I'm not even sure if getting bigger increased my actual hitbox).

You did reach the end! Sorry, I accidentally modified the name of the credits scene right before submitting it, so the pathing does not work unfortunately. I corrected it in the code, but I don't think I can update it until the end of the voting.

Also, indeed, the size increase was not applied to the hitbox. I was worried it might make some sections impossible as I had some trouble with strange collisions, so I played it safe.

Fantastic job with the art and music, there was a definite vibe. The overall game was great and pretty easy to understand. Great entry!

Congrats for this first submission, The game would have been way more readable if the camera was a bit further, I think it's missing some indication but overall, really great entry, well done :)
