Very fun mechanic to play. The minimalist approach for the game art style and UI is very suitable to make understanding the scaling mechanic better. Would be really fun to play with friends competitively. Great job on this one! :)

Love the minimal art style and the challenge of knowing when to have big body or big hands. Multiplayer would be a game changer for this concept. Well done!

I really enjoyed this! It took me a while to figure out what to do but once I got it I had a blast. The sound effects were simple but effective. Great job :)

Thanks, I appreciate you trying it out! I wanted to add more sound effects but I'm happy with the mileage I got out of the few I did have.

Super fun! I love the style and it feels pretty polished, felt like it was a bit difficult quickly but maybe I'm just bad!

Thanks! Yeah I think with more playtesting I would have made the difficulty curve more gradual, it does get hard too quickly!

Thanks! I really appreciate you trying it out! I think you are right with there being too many boys too quickly, with more time and playtesting I would work on a more reasonable distribution of big boys.
