Cool concept! I liked how the starting room had a mix of smaller and larger items. I had a hard time surviving long enough to grow in size, but I enjoyed exploring the house and seeing the cool room setups

Hard to grasp the mechanics at first, it's like everything is thrown in your face at once. But once you get used to it its really fun. Cheers one this one!

Frog Eat WorldI ran into a funny bug when my tube got stuck behind the wall and saw that its actually just made out of black circles. Now thats a clever way to easily make a good looking tube!

Power-Line Fried ChickenThis is fun! I love the art style, reminds me of Warioware. Gameplay is very Katamari Damacy which is great. Only thought is that I feel like the meter might go down a little fast because I had a hard time staying past level 1. Great job!

Fugue Shot (Jam Version)Fun! It's satisfying to roam around grabbing stuff. Reminds me of katamari damacy. Was a little unclear which items I could not suck up.

ORBLORGO COMMANDThis idea is super creative and I liked how busy the scene was. It really felt like the vacuum interacted with everything! Unfortunately I haven't ascended humanity yet, but I'll keep trying. :)
