GOOPA!! This was such a delight – I absolutely loved the creature designs, music & sound design, and gameplay. I kept reopening the menu to enjoy the opening animation and sound again. (I was also reopening to re-read the instructions for how to play and ended up taking a screenshot that I kept open.) I initially just kept getting Junpos because I thought that bigger carrying capacity was better, but I started realizing that the tradeoff was that they were slow… Made it to level 7 though – just a second shy of beating level 8…
I also like that your itch page has bouncing titles!
