"Your pet is now kind."
This is such a well executed take on the theme, using the same concept as so many other games in the jam only better in every area.
I didn't feel like I had to optimize my pet towards a goal or style, I felt free to pick whatever I imagined my pet to be like, especially with the brilliant personality/action questions. This really felt like evolution, gradual adaptation over time, compared to many other games where it's just a linear power progression with unlocks (like practically every game ever).
So when, after making a bunch of choices and focusing on eating carrots and apples, I get the confirmation: "Your pet is now kind." My heart got all warm. Such a great experience.
Did you make the art yourself? The level of quality is ridiculous for such a short period of time, so for your sake I really hope you didn't work that hard over the last 10 days :D
If I'm to suggest anything for a full release, it's to really focus on the "home" area. Make the pet move around and do stuff, and have the different actions you can do be implemented in the scenery instead of "popup panels". Implement more of the "tamagochi" things, I guess, so the player can stop what they're doing and enjoy watching their pet.

DEVOLVEAh no, I didn't made "most" of the art myself. The UI were from "kenney rpg UI pack" and the monster sprites were from "calciumtrice" but a few edits to make elemental evolutions look better. The BG and Music were royalty free, I just played around with the BG to have it fit better into the theme.
And ty for your comments :)
What a game,
The art, the music, the UI, the story.
It's just perfect, I loved it

Lost SpeciesThis game is sooo good! It is unbelievable that you made it in a couple of days. This is something I would have payed to play. It is fun and after the end I just wanted to play again to see the other endings as well and see how the little slim monster can evolve. I ended up playing like 5 times in a row and managed to see 3 different endings. Will continue tomorrow to find the other two endings as well. Well done! (Gf of another contestant here, he showed me some of the games and I made an account just to write this comment.)
Nice project! I liked the mix of pet simulator with visual novel, it really makes you attached to your pet, the music also really fits with the style, and the art is cute and smooth. The text has a good font, but it would be better to read if had some drop shadow or stroke on it. The evolution aspect of it could have a little more weight on the gameplay, but was fun to test out different skills with the slime. If you decide to keep working on that project i would love to see the endings with different routes and interactions. I would pay for play a final version. You have a good idea in hands!

ThrojanI loved this game. Its great how different actions result in different changes in your pet and how you can push it in the direction you want. The music and art is also great. Did you create these images during this jam?

Neon Genesis EvolutionNice mix between turn based combat and pet simulation
I really liked the little story bits and situations where depending on your choices it influences the evolution of the little slime, i played without the food hints so i'm not sure what determined what he liked or not untill i tried a bunch of different items, the evolution is fun though and it seems like there's quite a bit of possibilities.
Overall nice and chill experience, had fun taking care of the slime pet and fighting the occasional forest monster here and there.
Well done :)

CaterPanic!Very good! Perhaps my favorite of the jam so far.
Your story is very cute and even a little touching.
You really can't help but get attached to your little slime monster.
Music and visuals are great, the mechanics are well thought out, the gameplay loop is satisfying, it's a fun experience!
