I think it is a very ambicious idea, and it would be great if you continue with it or something similar after the jam ends :) I think it is very original, and you can get infinite results mixing genes. Good work!

Absolutely, I agree that this has so much potential with the number of outputs that can occur. We've already started re-planning some of our original requirements and we're hoping to make it into a full game someday. It'll take lots of time but I think it'll definitely be worth the effort =) Thank you for feedback! We really appreciate it!
I agree that some of the animals are... interesting, to say the least haha. Actually, a lot of what we were doing here kept reminding me of the ridiculousness of Dr. Mephesto from South Park. I hope we'll improve the game and the animal AI with time so one day you can possibly even fight the chocolate banana hippo snake! Thank you for playing!
Thank you! Our intention is to eventually have stats related to the upgrades as well (e.g. a metal trashcan would take more damage than a plastic recycle bin) but we definitely didn't have time for that with the jam =( But now we have a pet project to work on to keep improving our AI and programming skills with unlimited potential for improvements.
The various animals sporting a variety of different parts is pretty cool. Its a shame the interactions with them are a bit limited but the overall presentation is great, the camera movements are a nice touch.
Nice concept, the cutout style is very nice. And is fun to just walk around as that little robot.
The creatures don't do damage, right?
