There were just two things I could not figure out: what does the owl do? And does the falcon have a limited lifetime or did it just always die super quickly for me?
I loved all the animal models, and the way you summoned them (brought me back to playing Invoker in Dota 2).
I think the game could have benefited from being faster paced, and giving the player more to do in the meantime (for example, more pickups, even if they are weaker overall to help balance).
Overall, fanstastic work, keep it up! :D
@OhFiddleDiddle thank you! indeed its heavily inspired by invoker haha. Balancing was rough because I ran out of time in the end. I agree on the powerups and pacing, I had a ton of ideas of individual powerups for the animals for example more bounces for the squirrel or more healing for unicorn/eagle etc... but ran out of time and sanity unfortunately.
Glad you enjoyed it overall!
I noticed that the arena's shading had a bit of a retro noise effect that I thought was deliberate, but noticed it wasn't happening in your screenshots, so wondering if it's a bug on my machine? Attached below in case you've seen it before.

Great stuff overall!
