I enjoyed the visuals, though I wish there was more to the game, something like tactical decisions? At this point it's more about clicking as fast as possible, so it wasn't very intrigueing.

I love the little creatures' heads. Nice tutorial on how you can shoot other things than enemies! The music is nice. Good job!

My finger's sore from all the clicking :laughing:. I like the idea and could see this expanded a lot into a nice puzzle game. Good job.

Fun game. I wish there were more levels. It felt like that was just the tutorial. Thought there was going to be a few challenging levels where multiple things come into play. Good job though.

I played through this game three times! At first, I thought I was controlling a little guy with a nose and tried to kill the tiny creature. I liked the art style—especially the colorful creatures. On the level with the invincible nosy character, it was hard to read the text because I kept trying to kill him.

For a while, I thought the bad guy was my character, to be honest. The art and music are extremely charming, and all it needs is a little more feedback to feel complete. The game itself is a bit too short and straightforward, in the sense that you get to the end feeling like you've completed the tutorial. The good news is that it's a decently enjoyable tutorial and I'm sure anything you build on top of it from this point on will just make the game better.

I agree, that's a good start! I was also distracted by the blue guy which I thought was many blue guys with one hit point.

Cute! Well polished for a short little game. Great graphics too. Main penalty to the overall score would be the length :)

Wow, that was over before it started! :D Just kidding, even if it was short, I had my fun during the couple of seconds it lasted. At least this way it doesn't unnecessarily repeat itself, overstaying its welcome.

I think you actually had quite some creative level ideas. Wish you'd have had more time to expand on those to make it a bit longer.

Also wish that there were SFX, that could've added a lot of juice.

There are good ideas here. It would've been nice to have a bit extra levels or some sort of timer so you could have a goal to beat for replays, but overall nicely done. The background audio also helped set a nice tone.
