How does your game fit the theme?
This game is like the Game Boy version of Pokemon but here the role is reversed. Instead of trying to catch fantastic creatures, here you are a monster that tries to avoid been caught.

It's a fun idea, though unavoidably being cornered feels unfair. Maybe the AI shouldn't be able to initiate another capture immediately after one another and let me walk through them?
I really like this game <3 even though the assets arent yours they fit perfectly with the theme of the game! And speaking of themes, this fits role reversal really well :0 I did get stuck in a corner at one point but other than that it's a really really fun game <33
Fun concept, I like the clicking minigame
I cant move, while pokeball is flying to me
This idea is very intersting ! Can you play my game?

Look'at'him go, he's so precious! =D
It seems like I'm far from the only one with this issue, but I have to say it: you can become stuck pretty easily in a corner.
Trainers should become temporarily intangible after a capture attempt (when they freeze and change color), to let you have a chance at freedom ^^
Apart from that, the concept is fun: I liked the dodgeball approch to reverse-pokemon.
Good job! =)
Cool idea, really like it. I also got blocked into a corner in the docs. Love all the art, looks great!
Fun game! The only negative I have is with the AI. You can blocked into a corner really easily, and it is impossible to escape.
Cute game, maybe need polish at capturing minigame, but still cool
Really cute game! Awesome job
It's very cute and I think it captures that feeling of the old Pokémon games, which I very much enjoy. I really like the world you built and the mechanics, although simple, make for a fun game. I could totally envision this game online with a bunch of lizards and humans trying to catch them. Overall great job!
Great idea for the game jam theme! I really enjoyed the mechanic of resisting being caught by the pokeball.
Really like the concept of the game and I like the world you have built for the game! My only grip was at one point I got stuck between two humans and couldn't get out of them and just needed to constantly engage in combat with them. Other than that, nice work!
Great fit for the theme, and you got a lot done in the timeframe, nice job!
Gorgeous pixel art and a great soundtrack! Gameplay is a little repetitive and can get cornered, but overall it's pretty great
A very cool idea! It was fun to try to escape from the humans but I always got cornered.
Awesome game! my finger hurts from clicking so much
This game has made my day, it's fun !
The creativity is very interesting , the mechanic to escape from pokeball made my day!
