Nice isometric gfx. A bit too complex but keep working on it! There is definitely a lot of potential here, just waiting for more polish and simplification. Great job."},{"author_name":"Oreganik","author_uid":"12485","time":"Aug 29, 2012 @ 12:17am","epoch":1346199120,"text":"I love the graphics and use of color.

I think you should next time focus on a very small playable game, add options step by step so you can end the compo with a playble version."},{"author_name":"Walt","author_uid":"15052","time":"Aug 29, 2012 @ 9:28pm","epoch":1346275380,"text":"i didnt get it, fighting didn't happen, who do i fight if i control everyone and why can every creature create offspring with itself? i missed something, didn't i?"},{"author_name":"tastive","author_uid":"15061","time":"Aug 31, 2012 @ 1:45am","epoch":1346377200,"text":"Some seriously trippy shit here.

The interface is a little hard to use - I wasn't initially sure what all the stats and buttons were and how to use them, although I figured them out.  There isn't a lot to play here - obviously some goals or an AI would help.  Looks like a great start, though, and visually very nice."},{"author_name":"Jeremias","author_uid":"7211","time":"Aug 31, 2012 @ 8:42pm","epoch":1346445420,"text":"Nice idea, sadly you could not finish the other features. It's a bit strange to control all creatures together, instead selecting one at start. But moving, fighting and breeding looks fine (even a turtle died after breeding... is this your message to the world? xD)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>You should make a post-compo-version to include the missing parts you mentioned!"},{"author_name":"Kmad","author_uid":"15598","time":"Sep 1, 2012 @ 12:11pm","epoch":1346501160,"text":"Visually it's very nice and it's a good concept that fits the theme.
