Super impressive game! Like Mewgenics but way more relaxing. Nice vibes and nice mechanics. Really well done game, wish I could have spent more time with it and actually beaten it, I think it's super neat. Thanks for sharing!
It is absolutely adorable and a game you can get hooked on. I'm looking forward to seeing future updates for this game :)
I like the visuals and the overall gameplay design. It’s satisfying just watching the little blobs wander around! One small suggestion would be to integrate the tutorial more naturally into the gameplay so there’s a stronger sense of progression and discovery. That said, for such a short development time, it already does a great job showing off a really promising idea. Great work! :D
i really enjoyed the gameplay, just addicted to it, the loop is great, the visuals are so charming and i easy just played one chilled hour.
great job
really ambitious concept with the breeding! gameplay loop can be quite addictive, building an army of unstoppable blobs. I really enjoy the gameplay loop between prepping in the base and the action phase out in the wilderness.
Amazing game. Loved the gameplay as well as design. The mechanics were really well made. Overall brilliant work.
This is a good concept. There is a lot of information thrown at the player at the start. I think some of the information should be left for after the first trip to the wilderness to break it up. I do like mixing the different blobs and mutations together. One small nitpick is not being able to see a blobs stats in the wilderness selection screen. Aside from that, this was a very interesting game. Good job!
Thx for the feedback! Actually if you click a blob twice on that screen you can see their stats but I guess I forgot to communicate that to the player, sorry! Glad you liked it
This game was pure fun — I loved watching these little blobs moving around and doing their thing. I really liked the concept of the game, and having a two-sided screen for gameplay felt great too.
The mechanics were smooth and clear, and the breed-and-bond system was a really creative feature. Great game, kudos!
I've got a king! Very nice game, I liked the style and music, although it kinda feels that I'm actually invading red slime in this game, and not the other way around.
Excellent game, I enjoyed it greatly
Made a lot of bonds
I loved your game! I really like the hand-drawn style (can't wait to see how you'll redraw the Warren and Wilderness!) as well as the adorable little blobs with their cute little mutations, and how they pile up! The atmosphere created by the music and sound effects is really cozy and relaxing.
The mutations could maybe be a bit more visible, it was sometimes hard to differentiate blobs in the Warren and the Wilderness. Also, the blobs were displayed below the bushes, which made it hard to follow the action. And I think the UI could also be a bit more intuitive (less clicks for a given action), but I don't know how exactly.
What I loved most was the core mechanics, the breeding of blobs. It is so fun to see our little army of cute monsters grow, with more and more mutations each generation! And while it is easy to do (you just select two blobs), it is a bit harder to get what you want. You have to take into account their relationships, their individual characteristics, their mutations... There is a lot of combinations you can try!
But I must admit, I got pretty lucky and got this little guy quite early ^^
