FleshTotem by 14Hertz
Sadly this isn't nearly as complete as I'd have liked it to be. Serves me right for spending almost a day trying to make it look pretty.
Pretty basic side-scroller/infinite shooter with a twist to fit the "Growing" theme. Character moves automatically, aim using the mouse and fire with LMB. Enemies will sometimes leave behind viable corpses, recognisable by their coloured highlighting. When they turn green, press E to eat them (for a small health restore), of F to place them in your sack (Corpses in the sack can later be deployed onto the totem). Corpses in your totem have their own health, and will draw fire from enemies while slowly healing you.
Was originally intended to be a compo entry so everything is done by myself. Just was late submitting.

This has simple mechanics with a good amount of strategic depth. Thanks for putting this together!
It was still pretty solid beyond that. Just the preview screenshot already had me laughing.
