I had a ton of fun with with, the narration was excellent and I loved that when you lost it was just the grandpa telling you he repeated the story wrong.

The analog art is very charming and the levels get increasingly more ridiculous, which I love.

Small touch that I love is that if you eat gods eyes first he can't shoot lightning bolts at you.

Great stuff.

Good catch! Like every boss fight, even God has a weakness...

Genuinely amazing game! I love the unique mechanics for each level; the Earth one was definitely the hardest.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the kind words! The Earth one was also the hardest to code.

Now I am very curious, how do you calculate the gravitational pull for the caterpillar? If you don’t mind sharing a snippet :)

The clay snakes where really nice.

Reminds me of a book I read as a kid.

Developer(+1)

Not a coincidence! I’m sure we read the same book.

Love the little clay figures you made! The story was cute, charming and the gameplay was fun! I enjoyed every bit of it :):):)

Developer

Thank you!  I had a lot of fun making the little figures.

Such a cool use of the analog wild card. Art and music feel great as well as the gameplay, even if its simple. Good job!

Developer

Thank you! I’d never made analog art or music for a game before, and I had a lot of fun doing it.

A very cute take on snake that's also surprisingly difficult

Developer

Thank you for the kind words!

Great use of the wildcards and funny storytelling! Also loved the ability to eat the "danger" in the last level

Developer

I'm glad you picked up on that! The boss has a weakness, but I didn't telegraph it very well.
