This concept was really creative. I thought the music and general atmosphere clashed a little bit with the narrative, as the premise made me feel panicked, but the music was calming. I appreciated the way later levels were made more difficult by having some of the creatures disappear, but i don't think I missed any. Overall, I would have liked to have seen a little more cohesion in the graphical style, maybe with some more time you could replace the pixel art with more of your own. Thanks for the game, great effort :)

I thought the graphics were done very nicely. The music was also soothing, however, the volume of the music was a bit too loud compared to the sound fx, and I wasn't able to adjust the volume in the game at all. I also enjoy games that are non-violent, and this game definitely fit into that category. I hope you get lots of good positive feedback. Good luck on the jam! :)

Not so fun for me but I like the concept of "not knowing until you have a look inside"

This was pretty great. I loved stealing the bugs' love and smashing them into bug juice for my grandmother. 10/10 would give grandma bug juice again.

Pretty nice game, with nice graphics. The gameplay was bit simplistic, but overall I enjoyed the mood.

The mood was nice. I really liked the idea of the masks. And the particles added a lot!
Great job for a game jam!

Good job here! The gameplay was a little simplistic but it seems you achieved what you set out to so good job for that. That graphics are quite nice as well!

We streamed your game with Danae: [link to Twitch VOD](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/599171054?t=01h41m50s) (approximate timestamp)

Dark, eldritch, horror game. :grin: Just kidding. The game might have benefited a bit from being shorter, or of course, having more variety in the gameplay loop (which is of course more difficult during a jam). Perhaps some enemies to actually dodge?

This game is a great example of how artificial selection can lead to a population of evil slime monsters. I think. Art and overall style is great, and invisible elements are pretty innovative.

Hello! Your game was played during my stream!
Sorry our schedules didn't align for you to be around while I was streaming it as was requested on your form submission, but since tonight is my final night streaming LDJAM46 games I decided to just go through the remainder of my queue.
