Cool idea with a funny theme... Too bad that the music and the characters are from Patapon. It would have been forgivable if you mention it at least. :)

yeah so, mixing Katamari and Patapon. Slight plagiarism there, going against the spirit of the jam, but then again it's not against the rules.

The intro is funny, the mechanic works, but there's no way to lose. In other words, there's no challenge. If you could fall or lose some of the boulder's mass and maybe compete for a highscore in a time trial mode this would be worth a replay or two. In its current form, not really.

It's well put together. I'll give you that.
