How does you game fit the theme?
The game revolves around the theme of "It is not real". The idea was to create a factory where you capture creatures called gloops, scare them to producing ploops and selling. The "it is not real" could relate to how we feel bad about creatures that are not real, fear and the ultimate goal of the game.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?

I like incremental and resource-management games and that's an unusual type that I haven't seen much of in this jam. The loop is very simple but well-balanced, and the critters are cute. I do think it could use a fair bit of polish, though--the graphics, adding sound, and just that the mechanics are so simple that it's hard for it to keep your interest for very long, since you're not building towards or unlocking anything.

Hey, the game looks cool. But I see that you didn't have much time. But you'll get used to it soon :D
I have to create my game in just 2 days from this jam bcoz of exams. Anyways, the only feedback I have is to add some background effects or maybe a particle effect to make it look good and also try to create a very short tutorial. Also, bump down the resolution size. This was indeed a great game. Please don't forget to checkout my game and rate it.

Developer

Thank you! yes indeed it needs some work. I'll see if I can fix the resolution somehow

GLOOPS ARE EXTREMELY CUTE! When I suffocated some of the baby ones I almost cried :'( Cute little game, wish you had more time to polish whatever plans you had with it!

Developer

Thank you! :D 

Yes hopefully I'll get to improve it!
