Was pretty fun even without really knowing what i was doing or even why but i enjoyed trying to place as many of the same type next to each other as possible! 

With a little extra gameplay and information added to it and i think it could be a nice chill game to play :) 

>What was the most frustrating moment or aspect?

When one of the animals I placed was transformed into a different one for no clear reason. I thought the original animal had been eaten, but didn't see how as there were no predators nearby originally.

>What was your favorite moment or aspect?

I like how the numbers associated with a tile help me figure out where to place next while also providing some strategy in that I often have to select the best of several options.

>Was there anything you wanted to do, but couldn't?

I wanted to place more animal tiles, but they seem relatively rare.

>If you could change, add, or remove any 1 thing, what would it be?

Jungly! That was interesting and fun, although quite difficult, I barely got to 3k score points. The gameplay is easy to grasp, but a bit of in-game info about controls and animals would add to the whole experience. The art is on point, I really like those cartoonish animals. Although I failed to do that myself, I concur that it would be a lot better with some music. Great job!

Enjoyed this one a lot. I think you might be closer to release than you think, at least depending on the scope you have for that visual polish, but I don't know your project as well as you do. My notes from my play session are:

• The animal display while placing an animal tile seems to be bugged - it displayed right for the first tile, and then for every subsequent tile it displayed the wrong animal (which updated to be correct once I placed the tile). Additionally, the end screen seems to have a bug as well (it just displays the total points as 888888888)
• I'm sure you plan on communicating this, but I wish I knew what the animals did! Mostly I use them as a free 50 points every few turns, but they clearly do more than that
• The game is very hard. On my play I got to a score of 2979/4700, over a thousand points away from even the third goal. If I were to blame anything (other than my skill) I'd blame all of the tiles which serve to cap off connecting sections (any tile which doesn't have 2 of the same area adjacent), sometimes it feels like there are a few too many of those. But then again, maybe I'm just salty lol
• Gimme the calming music! I don't care if it's just royalty-free classical music you downloaded off of the internet, give it to me!

For the positives:

• The change to allow rotating the pieces I really enjoyed, it added a lot to the strategic thinking
• The artwork looks nice, I like all of the 3D trees and cacti, and the animals are cartoony but very easily readable, I like them
• I enjoy the depth on the ocean block (the thing the play area sits on), I can't pin down why but it looks a lot nicer than I imagine just a thin sheet would
