Game Description
Growth—the very word itself—is UNCONTROLLABLE! The letters have grown wild and now roam the page unfettered. Cats are gonna boop, and you gotta boop these letters back into their proper place. But watch out for angry letters! Sometimes when you boop a letter, the letter boops back!

Well, this was certainly a different twist on the theme! Good job. I had fun playing the game, but I have to say the letters were a bit too unruly for me to manage to gather them all.

Developer

Thanks for playing, I’m glad you enjoyed it! Balancing the difficulty curve is always a tough problem.

This was a lot of fun! It's really really clean and polished for your first game jam submission. I especially liked how smooth the movement felt. And the subtle animations were really fun. Also, I noticed the location indicators, showing you where the friendly and enemy letters were - nice touch. I think my hand cramped trying to push the friendly letters into the green zone, I hope that can get easier!


Great submission.

Thanks for the feedback! Thank you for noticing the indicators, I wasn’t sure if they would be worth the extra effort. I’m glad you liked it.

Very interesting take on the theme!
The game itself is clean and feels smooth!

The only criticism I have is that it gets a bit repetitive and the letters could go super far which made bringing them back kind of a hassle... But overall still a great experience!

Developer

Yeah, it can definitely get repetitive. I spent a lot of time polishing the core gameplay. I think there’s a lot of room to expand into new mechanics.

That's a super silly and fun game! It's a simple concept, but the overall feel and style is great.

Developer
