How does your game fit the theme?
Main character eats berries and generally grows. After eating certain amount of berries he "grows up". It's more a story-based game, where growth is a main theme.

Wow. I love this take on the theme, a narrative about growing up taking a dark turn... it sucks and I hope things go well for you, fantastic piece of storytelling! I've rated about 180 games for the game so far and I would say this is my #2 favorite for narrative.
Honestly, I just hope you're gonna participate in a more narrative game jam because the story reaaaally kept me engaged, even tho I thought that i'm about to drop as it's a simple platformer. But I've finished it and loved the progression. Continue!
Also, the art style is great as well!
That got dark quickly! Good interpretation of the theme. I liked all the little characters and the charged jump was interesting even though it doesn’t seem to have any function in the gameplay.
Great job. So much to unpack here. Hope you’re okay. I hope you seek out and get the help you need. Cheers.
Nice game buddy. This is excellent for a jam game. Though i felt like there was too much interruption between gameplay which was mildly frustrating. Anyways, great work!
nice game. good job
I like the art style! 💯
Great Artwork!
After the food counter popped up after the intro sequence, the screen stayed black. I tried tapping buttons and refreshing the page, but no dice.
I'm on Firefox, probably a Firefox thing.
I tried it on my firefox and black screen worked correctly. My guess is that for some reason it doesn't work because of Mathf.SmoothDamp function or unity build settings that I don't know about, so it's most likely my bad.
I uploaded the version without the black screen on my itch, if you still want to try the game out.
I tried the new version, and I still got a black screen on Firefox (hardware acceleration on and off). I tried in chrome (I don't know why I didn't think of that last night) and it seems to work fine, thanks for uploading the separate build and for all the troubleshooting!
Interesting story, well done!
The art in this game is top notch! I really enjoy the nature sounds as well!
Hoooly, didn't expect that. It went from cute to dark really quick.
Love the concept and execution though. Hope you're doing well!
its not typical that a story game made during a jam can be this good. Very sad and real.
