What a fun game! This is really well designed. Great quest system on top of everything too (except all the snakes were eaten by people before I could be eaten by them lol). I loved the frog's face haha
I played this game during the development phase. It has really unusual game mechanics. I really like these original works. incredible imagination. I wish I could think of creative games like this. Congratulations for the upload.
Very creative. Fungi games rock.
You have a cool system and mechanic going on here! Maybe, after the jam, you could add some sort of progression structure that goes beyond the objectives. I think that would be cool. The visuals were very charming too. Thanks for the experience!
I am now the king of the jungle!
cool concept!
Excellent game. Fit the theme so well. After a while reaching the ''eat 3 hares'' mechanic became boring. I think setting up a reason for people to bother collecting those 3 hares would be cool. Regardless I think the music and mechanics suited the direction you were aiming for.
Fun game. The "get eaten to become something else" mechanic was pretty good.
I liked the cute animal sprites.
There was an annoying and loud click noise happening every few seconds. Not sure if it was part of the background music.
Hi! The clicking sound has something to do with the WebGL build and I can't find a way to fix it. Hence there is a volume control to turn the music off :p
It's a good game, but it'd be even better if it had excellent graphics.
Thank you! Unfortunately I'm not a good artist, that's the best I can do xD
Congrats on completing the jam! I thought it was a great take on the theme! A shorter cooldown on being able to move your mushroom would be a welcome change, I found myself trapped and waiting out the countdown several times.
Congrats to you too! When I playtest, I usually turn myself back to a shroom when I see a predator (cockroach or mosquito) nearby, or when I need to avoid one that doesn't eat shrooms. I found that 10s is the sweet spot between being too slow or overpowered.
Fun game. Love the music
Thank you! I wish I can fix the clicking sound in the music but this only happens in WebGL build and I don't know the solution.
Cool game! Liked the music and mechanics.
rate4rate?
i really like your perspective about the theme. It can be more fun about gameplay but nice.
Hi, glad that you find my perspective interesting! Do you have any suggestions on improving the gameplay?
i think waiting to die a little boring. I cant really think solution right now to that but my feeling is this ^^
Very interesting concept, was it based on The Girl with All the Gifts? Was fun, up beat music and interesting interactions, although I didn't quite grasp the direction I was supposed to be going, or what I was doing. Some additional guide text might be useful for anyone that can't figure it out
Hi, glad that you enjoyed the game! I have never heard of The Girl with All the Gifts, but the original idea came from reading a page about the zombie-ant fungus. I will make sure to add some guides in the game.
