Cool idea! I included it in my Movie Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out! :)

The camera controls were a bit janky but as soon as I figured them out it was smooth sailing. Fantastic idea, and great execution (even without audio)!

I love the mechanics after I figured out what to do (stand back and hit it with my head). Being the alien baby is such an excellent idea! I made a wrath of kahn game where you are the larva in the brain! We're Game Jam Twinsies! I love the physics, and it took me back to playing a classic 80's game with my Dad called "don't break the ice." Overall this is a fantastic game you have made. I would like some noise though maybe just ambient white spaceship hums or something to breath a little life into the environment.

I managed to get completely out of his chest and squirm across the table :D  I liked the multiple views but it could definitely benefit from some sound effects.

Cool idea! Needs sound though. Busting up a sternum kind of lacks impact when there is no audio feedback. The two cameras were definitely a nice touch though.

I liked the concept. Sometimes I lost control for a minute of my character, but overall really neat idea and good execution. Not much in the way of challenge, but I enjoyed the experience myself. Nicely done!

Very cool concept.
It took a sec to realise what I was supposed to do, but then I was just "break dammit".
Never thought I'd ever get to play from a Chest Burster's POV! :D
