Level up progression is soooo awesome and i would have spent an hour playing or more if i hadn't accidentally hit the back button LOL. I feel like you can polish this up more and add more content and put it up on steam for a reasonable small price?? I would definitely buy it!!! Thanks for participating dippy, you the best.

This was really well thought out!! Especially with theme! The game loop was fun and all the little details like the body parts and the music on a timer loop was all great!! Thanks for participating!!!

I forgot mention it was sooo well closely tied to the theme which was really creative of you!!

This was a really good story!! I really liked the way it was written and how immersive it was!! I forgot how powerful a story can be, and even though there wasn't necessarily gameplay, it still resonated and was fun for me!!

Great job! Keep on writing!

THANKS FOR PARTICIPATING!!!! I checked out your itch.io and you have a ton games which is really good!!!! Thats incredible! What I noticed first off is that you have used many different game engines/frameworks, since you listed Unity on there, I think you should just hunker down and focus on Unity!! That way you can learn depth over breadth, aka you wont have to keep relearning game engines but just get really at one!

Here is my feedback for each criteria:

Enjoyment wise, I think there's more thought about in terms of game design. When you control all 4 soldiers at once, I kinda felt like giant walking target, and the hitboxes weren't true to the visuals. So I couldnt dodge as precisely!! I think that the controls could be better thought out as well!! Holding down the mouse to create movement doesnt make it feel as intuitive, compared to having movement be done by WASD. You could also auto fire towards your mouse as well!

Theme made the game more forgiving, which I appreciated! You give back lives pretty generously which made it less frustrating when one my soldiers would die

Presentation-wise theres a lot left to be desired, but I'm totally not worried about that! Unity has an asset store, there are plenty of free assets like kenny as well https://kenney.nl/assets !

Creativity I think theres potential here, especially in terms of like Survivorslike game play (if you've played Vampire Survivors before on Steam!) The autofiring is definitely similar!

Bardon, I am gonna encourage and challenge to make post-jam updates to your game with this feedback!! I would love to give it another go and play on stream again to see the difference!!!

Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3!!! You are the first game I played on stream!!!

Lets do it!

rated! <3

I re unzipped and got to play! Controls were really smooth, I liked the upgrade system alot, and the difficulty ramps up nicely. Good job! Sorry I couldn't play on stream!!! <3

Cool concept!!! My little gnome escaped the corporate ladder loop, I'm proud of him! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 7:35:18

Art style is great! Very cute and wholesome. I enjoyed it very much!!! (Also love the gibberish!) Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 7:24:40

This is a really cool concept, I just wish the UX was more clear on how things worked but I like the idea of it!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 7:16:29

I would have definitely kept playing if I had more time! Glue is OP, in a fun way! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 7:06:49

I'm sorry I couldn't play it, and therefore rate it! There was an error with a Unity .dll file?? I dont know how I got this issue tho? Other people seem to play it fine. Attempted at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 7:03:22

Art was very cute!! I liked the fact the island was scaling! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @6:56:20

I played this game for way too long!! It was really fun building everything! played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 6:28:51

Lot of potential puzzle ideas for this one!! With more polished controls and levels I'm curious you're gonna develop this more! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 6:12:02

Very unique take on the theme!! There are some running bugs where it moves me with out moving it. Otherwise, I would have liked to have seen better platforming controls cuz this idea is super unique and creative!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 6:05:00

I beat it!!! Wish the controls were slightly more forgiving, nonetheless good job!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ around 5:55:00??

I really liked the vibe of this game and the strategy! Probably the most well done, I just wish I could tell apart my creatures especially with the spawners. Otherwise, great job! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 5:40:26

Okay I'm surprised by how smooth the controls are!! Especially for being in Scratch!! Couldn't explore everything for sake of time! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 5:29:48

Very interesting mechanic!! Sound effects were a little blaring for me. Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 5:21:48

Art was very charming. I didn't know how to do the offerings though! Built my body back anyways!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 5:10:10

Literally pong on steroids LOL. I liked it! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 5:04:09

Wait lowkey multiplayer mode??? I'd be addicted ngl if it had multiplayer. Good twist on a classic game!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ around 4:55:00??

I too got 155 as my high score!!

I locked in for 930 points!!! Thanks for joining stream!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 4:43:20

THIS STRESSED OUT, IN A GOOD WAY!!!! Really difficult but fun!! Played @ https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 4:35:00

I wish I could control where to place blocks better! Like which side their facing or what not. But crazy polished game!! Good job. Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 4:26:00

Game was such a vibe, I forgot how the cave mechanic worked tho!!!! Otherwise, I really liked the puzzles!!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ somewhere around 3:50:00???

Cool game, I'm impressed you implemented the drawing stuff for the tracks! Good job! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 3:28:16

Very very cool use of the theme!! Wish you could ants a little bit more as QOL?? The zoom in and out is great btw. Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 3:17:46

This is a very cute game, I feel it reminds of Inside Out!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 3:13:09

Whoever made the music, tell them to drop the album soon, cuz im in love with it!!!!! Janky physics but with a lot of polish I feel like this has a lot of promise as a full fledged game!!! I really enjoyed this one! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 2:53:54

Graphics are really charming and the concept is really interesting! I could be slightly more forgiving by not letting you die when you touch sides. Otherwise, I wish I had time to play more!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 2:44:23

A lot of promise in this one!!! I liked how you tried to make the jumping mechanic coincide with scaling and use coyote time to your advantage. I definitely feel that it could use more polish regarding when you stop your character, they should stop more quickly to feel like you have more control over when you character stops. Theres a really good GMTK video on what makes a good jump here which i thought would be useful!

Otherwise, I'm curious as to whether you'll keep iterating on this one!! Cheers!

Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 2:30:27

The controls felt realllyyy fluid and great to me! I'm surprised and curious as to how you coded it! Otherwise, I'm not sure how to progress in this game or if its bug. Otherwise, fun gameplay loop! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in<3 vod Day 4 @ 2:24:30

I was very intrigued that you could extend roots from any node!! Thats a cool engineering aspect in terms of code!! I very much enjoyed this game!! Style and graphics are left to be desired but thats a minor thing!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 1:59:16

I ran into some bugs!! But the concept is pretty cool, I like that it reminds of Warcraft III a little bit!! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in <3 vod Day 4 @ 1:50:10
