Pretty cool game, although i couldn't help but go on a rampage regardless and kill everything xD,pretty fun to play although there doesn't seem to be any replay once the game is over other than forcing the game to quit and running it again.

Great use of the theme to come up with something new that immediately clicks. Loved the kaiju and how heavy it felt to move around.

Great game! The atmosphere and art is awesome. The Kaiju attacks made you want to destroy everything. Wanted a few car sfx and art here and there to add to the city vibe but over all it was fun.

You should put a start new game at the end though.

Great game! I immediately laughed when I saw one of the GIFs you guys posted. I love your art style and you used the theme greatly.

Two negative points: The music suddenly stopped midway through, it was pretty quiet after that. I didn't like that the debris of the buildings flew around that much and destroyed other buildings.

This was cool! I liked how 'heavy' it felt to walk around as the rampaging monster. Nice take on the theme!

Destroying the city is so satisfying! Your take of the theme was quite clever! I really enjoyed the mechanics, although the pacing was a bit slow. Also, not having mouse lock was an issue for me using multiple monitors. Loved the massive attacks, I could actually see this working as a full game where you need to guide the humans evolution based on your attacks... overall this was an excellent entry, well done!

This was so much fun on being a big monster wrecking buildings alone. SO MUCH FUN. I also really loved the concept and graphics. Great work!

Very interesting concept. All is nice: graphics, gameplay, etc. I would love to play new levels with new challenges!

This game feels fantastic! Really impressive destruction physics.

I wish that I had more control over what I was destroying and what would be built. It was too easy to accidentally start a chain reaction with all the flying debris, and no matter how much I destroyed the oil refinery it would always come back.

Is fun to destroy stuff :). I think this was good idea, however i do think the kaiju was a bit slow if you wanted to go the the other side of the map.

I'm somewhat frustrated when there is no web version to test out a game, I really don't like downloading random stuff, but after waiting for 10 minutes for this to start I now know why people decide against the web version :D

The game looks very nice, I especially like the design of the kaiju. The main problem for me was the debris that destroys surrounding buildings, and buildings getting knocked down without me touching them. Great job :v:

Yeah, super fun game! :D

OK, I gotta admit, I couldn't resiste the urge of rampaging the city for long. But I like the idea, and it is well made in the game. It looks great as well!

Congrats, the game is really great!

Awesome to find another game that combines the same two genres we picked! But in a completely different and unique take.

I liked the sense of weight and scale you feel as the kaiju, and destroying things was very satisfying (maybe a little too satisfying). That being said, it was hard to get a feel for what the goal is and how to determine what building type gets rebuilt when I destroy a building. I also wish the kaiju could move faster!
