This game is a dream! It captures well the theme of the jam and the feeling of grow and destruction of Godzilla series.. Great job (and it is in 3d!)

As I see - it was heavily inspired by Katamari, and that's awesome. Sure in needs to be more polished, but this mechanics is great, good job!

It's way funnier than it had any right to be, considering the production values. I mean, graphics suck, controls suck, no sound at all, but I did play this game a lot logner than many others, better-looking ones. Polish this and it could become very good!

Also bonus points for TARDIS there (-8

Although the gameplay is simple, it's very much fun. Same with the graphics; simple yet effective.

I really believe the overall experience can be greatly enhanced with the addition of audio and character animations for Chuthulu (who is more modeled after Godzilla than Lovecraft IMO).

Cool concept, but it was a bit slow to grow :)
A bit more animation and camera moves could make it more dynamic too;I also had some clipping bugs, but that was fun :)

Really cool and pretty, but is there an end goal? I grew to over 30000 kg :D

5 out of 5! You totally have to expand this to a full game. It reminds me a lot to the Coon episode from South Park.

Definitely inspired by Katamari, a great choice for the theme I'd say!
It really needs music and more polish, but hey! it's already lots of fun as it is! Congratulations.
