An ecology-themed puzzle game in a fantasy setting
A popular dungeon diving locale is having an invasive species problem. As a licensed professional (you are licensed, aren't you?) you've been called in to solve the problem. Solve 8 puzzles by conjuring monsters into the ecosystem to rid it of unwanted populations, because adding more foreign animals to an environment has never gone wrong!
It's kinda weird but I think it turned out okay.
*
How To Play
Each room is populated by monsters with different behavior patterns and diets. Some monsters are native while others are considered invasive.
Conjure new monsters into the environment and watch how things play out in a rogue-like turn sequence.
Your goal is remove all invasive monsters and preserve all native monsters by strategically introducing new monsters.
Keep in mind that some conjured monsters are also considered invasive and cannot be left in the environment.

Tools Used
- Godot 4.2.1 (engine)
- Pyxel Edit (art)
- Bosca Ceoil (music)
- Lab Chirp (sound effects)
*
Disclosure
A bug was fixed post-jam. While not definitively game-breaking, the confusion it caused some people halted their experience which I believe justified the update.
You can find all previous Windows builds here.
