I must confess, when I first played this game, I thought the jiggly things were enemies and not food. Once I realized I could absorb them and level up, the game became a thousand times more fun and interesting (well, obviously). A journey into the microcosm is a very original idea. I like the atmosphere you created with the sounds and colors. 

I. Love. Incremental. Upgrades! I especially love it when incremental upgrades are uncapped! By the end of this game, I was zipping around with unlimited dashes and very high movement speed, and I always love movement speed. It's awesome! There were a couple issues I had so here they are.

1. Boss upgrades don't carry over when you die. Normally you keep all of your upgrades, so I assumed the same would apply to the major boss upgrades. Unfortunately, they don't, and there's no indicator I noticed that you lost them. I was confused why I couldn't get out of the second level until I returned to the boss room and saw they were back.

2. When you die, the amount of xp thingies you need to evolve resets to the starting amount, which might be intentional, but it just makes it so dying quickly becomes the optimal course of action so you can grind out evolutions.

3. The feedback for damaging an enemy seemed a bit inconsistent. Maybe it's because I'm an insane speed demon so my damage upgrades were a bit lacking, but it felt like the spores didn't work at all, and my lack of control over my non-dashing attacks just felt a bit sluggish, but again, might just be an upgrade path thing.

And once again someone's first game jam game is amazing. This is a great game, good job, I hope you continue to make more!

Very fun game! I liked how the enemies had different mechanics in order to fight against them, especially the bosses. Also, liked the leveling system and how it was called mutations XD

One of my fav games this game jam. Mechanics well done, well polished. Only nit-pick would be to have more enemy variety and for upgrades to be more heavier. But overall a very very very solid game

The art is really pretty with the different lights and particles. the sfx are really good and the feeling of evolving and becoming more of a weird powerful cell is a fun gameplay loop!
