Why was this so far down on my list of games I need to play and rate?? Might be my favourite of the jam.
Very cool take on a metroidvania-ish-like-sort of game. Figuring out who can do what was a nice curve and I enjoyed the puzzles.
I didn't mind the spinning to decide the next life thing, but do agree when you landed on a creature you didn't have any use for it felt a bit off to just kill yourself and go again. I'm not exactly sure how you would do it or if it's possible, but having "something" to do every time would be so nice. I don't think it could be progress because you can't have infinite things to do, but I dunno some kind of incremental interaction you could go boop with each character?
I got distracted, but anyway, great job!
