Really awesome concept and game mechanic. It also ties into the theme perfectly. The art is also really well-done and charming. The audio complements it well. It's always interesting seeing your monks come back as different animals.\nI did encounter a few bugs and technical issues. There's game-ending text that pops up right away on the main menu. When you try to adjust either the music or sound volume, it causes static- it seems to only work when you either have both turned all the way up or both all the way down. I tried two different browsers but unfortunately the WebGL player would not maximize, which makes the stats really difficult to read.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"etrealjunior","author_uid":"1217790","time":"2020-10-07T08:27:39Z","epoch":1602059259,"modified":1602059259,"text":"I liked your game my congratulations, I also did one if you want to know, and give me your feedback I am very grateful, this is the link https:\/\/ldjam.com\/events\/ludum-dare\/47\/resurrection","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Kpedatte","author_uid":"1146073","time":"2020-10-07T09:31:19Z","epoch":1602063079,"modified":1602063079,"text":"Nice game, but I had several issues about UI size","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Franciszek Pyr\u0107","author_uid":"1121145","time":"2020-10-08T14:32:00Z","epoch":1602167520,"modified":1602167520,"text":"Small tip.

I do feel like I either did something wrong or it's a little too long for the amount of content it has. Dragging the monks around is also a little finicky at times.
