Could've done with a controls screen, as I couldn't figure them out for a little while.
Decent gameplay loop, and I like the scales graphic at the end. Pinging around as a slime was also quite fun! A bit more polish and you could have something really fun here.

I would apprieciate a play & review of my game if you have the time.

The game's pixel art style is visually appealing and creates. The concept of navigating the dungeon and growing by eating skeletons remains intriguing. I kept eating.  The time-based element adds an extra layer of challenge and urgency. Although it broke in two of my games. Or maybe I ate to many skeletons.  The endgame resolution could benefit from a more satisfying conclusion, perhaps with a humorous or dramatic twist.


Movement animation could be maybe improved as it didn't feel  smooth and comfortable to look at.  With a small refinement and added content I believe this game has the potential to become a polished and satisfying dungeon beater.

Hello, thank you for the feedback :D!

I am happy that you found the pixel art and the concept appealing and intriguing. Sorry for the bugs though, I guess it is kind of a thing that happens in gamejams from what I've seen and heard ^^" .

And I wholeheartedly agree with your feedback. I'll take it very much into account if I end up updating this project! Which I would like to do whenever possible, and with the time the project needs :]


Thanks for the support, and I hope you have a happy rest of the jam!

Good fun.

Good fun.
