Well, I can't say it felt very unexpected, but it's a nice little game. I wish there was a few more variables with the creatures themselves but I've always been a sucker for games like this so I enjoyed my short time with it nonetheless.

I really liked the idea. I wish there was a bit more difference between the different creates. Overall is this an okay little jam game.

This is really cute, I love the ears! It's also cool how random mutations of color and size will sneak back into the gene pool.

The game is really fun, I think that some free relaxing background music and the ability to unselect creatures will be a massive improvement.

I really enjoyed the visuals! Reminded me of "Niche - a genetics survival game" -- it's almost educational to see how recessive/dominant genes work and how mutations can sometimes produce an entirely different color.
