Play as Mushroom Muncher as he sets out to have his daily feast of Shroomians. The more you eat the bigger you grow but be careful, Shroomians can change as they become poisonous and inedible, or larger and immobile.
Launch, catch, and munch as many Shroomians as you can.

Really high quality modeling and texturing to see for a competition game. It's great to see the seeds of where the game is headed with the larger enemies coming out. Just a few camera/control issues to work out.
Maybe try a Pikmin style more overhead view, so the player can always see the swarms and be oriented to where things are in the air.
Art is amazing. Audio is good too. Gameplay is nice, it is a funny mechanic, and the physics work good. Though maybe it could be worked a bit if you are going to develop it further (for a Ludum Dare is ok). Maybe seeing mushrooms when they are in air, or playing with how high you jump before smashing. Really good work, very polished!
I didn't quite get the connection to the LD35 theme, I guess the mushrooms that change... Except from that, the game was really fun :) The controls might need some adjustments, maybe make the frog run faster. The graphics and music are awesome. Great job!
Really nice graphics and gameplay on this one! The only problem I Have with it though, is that the controls are a bit too floaty for my taste. Otherwise, great game!
The game looks weirdly cool. It doesn't feel responsive, though. I would make the movement faster and more arcade-like and add more smashiness overall.
Awesome graphics. I love the little bits of detail that went into this game. I found the controls to be crisp and responsive and the gameplay to be very entertaining. I really enjoyed watching that multiplier skyrocket when I was having a good run. Amazing job!
WOW! Those graphics! I don't know much about working in 3D, but I didn't know you could DO something like that in only three days! Good job with the sounds and music too. This is practically a professional game already. O_O
It's a bit on the easy side, though. It gets especially boring when you're pretty much at the end of a wave, just trying to mop the last enemies up, and somewhere in Wave 3 I was like, "Eh, I'm not waiting for this to pick up anymore," and died trying to smash some big mushrooms.
I think the easiest way to fix that problem would be to make the field smaller. With a smaller field you'd run into patches of mushrooms you didn't expect more often, and you'd have to make use of the terrain for evasion a lot more.
I'd also fix it so that the damage from poison and the damage from being attacked do different things. Like maybe poison damage makes your health-bar smaller for a while, where getting punched and kicked actually reduces the health in your health-bar. And maybe make it so you *can* smash the big mushrooms, since you won't be able to avoid them with a smaller field, and you get some benefit for it like a bonus multiplier for a while. That way you're incentivized to risk jumping into a crowd of enemies just to smash a big one, send the others flying up, and leap out eating the others. Seems like a fun idea.
Seriously though: it's hard to believe you did those models and textures in the tiny amount of time we have. It's an inspiration. I'm amazed.
Very nice graphics. Eating those mushrooms, stomping on them, the detailed highscore, all of it makes a very well tied and nice piece which is also quite enjoyable.
Sorry. Can't download your game. It shows that it will take around 10 hours. Download speed is about 10 KB/s when my ISP speed is 100 Mb/s. (I'm located in Russia)
Some control and camera issues I'm sure you would hammer out if you took it further. I did feel like it was very hard to avoid taking damage when trying to eat falling enemies.
Funny game mechanics, if perhaps a bit boring. Great modeling and use of depth of fields and other specials effects; vivid colors too. Sounds and music helped to get in the mood too.
Graphics are fantastic and it was quite fun to play. It was a bit on the easy side though, in the end I let myself die to see what would happen :P Overall a great entry though, congrats!
Maybe try a Pikmin style more overhead view, so the player can always see the swarms and be oriented to where things are in the air.
