Yo, as a bodybuilder myself, I can say that the game is crazy realistic!
Tommeh6 Oct 2025, 22:47
Wow. This game is absolutely incredible. Brimming with amazing art and super funny cutscenes. Easter eggs, many character design, fun gameplay. This game has everything. Really impressive what you have done in a weekend! Definitely one of my fav orite games this jam

The game is truly both funny and crazy at the same time — a unique experience.
It’s impossible not to praise the amount of work put into it — the fact that it even has cutscenes deserves respect!
And a thumbs up for the happy ending xD
Jcourt7 Oct 2025, 06:09
That was definitely an interesting happy ending. The gameplay is pretty quick and simple, but the art (including cutscenes) is really fantastic!

This is epic bro. The cutscenes are so funny and the alien at the end... Let's just say, I had a fun night XD jokessssss
nexyisan7 Oct 2025, 08:19
It's a really cool and fun game, it's a shame you can't lose. I thought someone would be able to eat us, but it turned out that they wouldn't.

That’s funny! Haha, I love the art — it really makes you want to play more.
mc shopot7 Oct 2025, 09:38
Literally me. Fun gameplay, but I’d love to see the option to eat cats added. The trap beat in the background sets the tone for the game! By the way, where can I get 18+ art of this alien girl?
Vrex7 Oct 2025, 10:29
Found out that I can click cats with mouse only on second walkthrough :D
Character kinda clips to walls/obstacles periodically. Wish there would be some enemies or hazards on levels btw.

Music, art, cutscenes is great though. Really solid entry overall, nice job

The art style and animation are incredibly cool and humorous. It occasionally freezes up, but I figure it's just a minor glitch.

Fun little game with cool cutscenes. Nice art and sounds.
Feraligatr7 Oct 2025, 12:21
Very fun game, I had some nice laughs when I found out you can chunk a human, a cow and an alien in just one bite. The ending also got me unexpected with that hilarious art.

Overall very simple gameplay with simple goals, playable in a few minutes, to see it all.
PatUwU7 Oct 2025, 12:33
This game hypnotized me to play more and moooreeee. Good job!

I'm so hungry... I could eat... A cow? Quite the banger of a game, thus far the highest rating on the humor counter.

The game is hilarious, especially the cutscenes. It reminded me of WarioWare.
Loved the art style!
Good Job!

Too bad we can't see more of the girl — she is the best part of the game. That being stated, I had fun and really enjoyed the graphics. One of the better games here, and it's in the spirit of Ludum Dare. The artwork is fantastic. Keep making games.
notsu7 Oct 2025, 22:18
Very fun ! Great graphics and ambiance !

Purrseus7 Oct 2025, 22:20
Sometimes, we forget that no intricate mechanics are needed, to create an insanely fun and engaging game. An absolute blast to play!!

The art and cutscenes were amazingly well done, such a funny game!
Flinge
Flinge7 Oct 2025, 22:33
Great visuals and cutscenes! And that ending — everything a true man could dream of.

I just felt there wasn’t quite enough gameplay variety between levels, aside from the visuals.
Gmiss
Gmiss7 Oct 2025, 22:42
It was REALLY cool, I finished it in one breath, I was very pleased with the visuals and the soundtrack kick's me hard. At the end there was a smile left on my face - great experience! (cinema aliens deserve a special mention)

What a banger. Although my immersion broke when I wasn't able to eat the cars. This guy clearly didn't want to save his cat hard enough

OldDog8 Oct 2025, 03:01
The game's visuals and animation details are outstanding, and the story is full of humor. Unfortunately, the content is rather short — I finished it pretty quickly. Still, it has great potential, and I’m really looking forward to the full version.

Well done! Music makes this game, but the humor is something that stands out here as well. I enjoyed gameplay, I think the graphics are awesome, consistent and funny. The animations are top-notch. Loved the surprising ending.

I tried to find an area for improvement and honestly it's not easy to find one - maybe collisions could use some minor tweaking (right at the beginning of the alien ship level). Theme-wise it's a little bit of stretch, but the mood makes it up for me. :)

Congrats, great entry!

ellaris8 Oct 2025, 13:44
Great game, love the music the art and the cutscenes. The only things I could point out would be that the easter egg is easy to miss the first time (had to do a second playthrough) and the lack of nay obstacles stopping or at least slowing the player down from munching, munching on people was hilarious.

I don't quite get why the X/Y numbers are in the wrong order, but yes this is the kind of thing I'd do to save a pet cat too.

Very fun entry! Not sure how I'd feel if my cat turned into a hot alien girl, though!!!

Это хорошая вайбовая игрушка. Мне кажется, её надо делать как idle игрушку на рабочий стол. Чтобы человек работал, но от его движений мышки и кнопок клавиатуры главный герой где-то там на фоне бегал и всех ел.

Nice game, only downside I could find is when you walk around obstacles, you sometimes get stuck on the corner which is a bit annoying. Apart from that, great game!

So many meme references 😂 I like the Roblox news caster and the fact that you have a skip button on cutscenes that basically goes "nah mate 🙂"

alexrose9 Oct 2025, 09:56
Was disappointed I couldn't eat the cat at first. Then I was really disappointed I couldn't eat the cat

lots of calories in an alien

love the fullscreen frames, very funny, especially love his lips. enjoyed the music and cohesiveness of the style musically, visually, writing wise. this is a quintessential LD game to me, it's the type of thing you would only ever get to play during LD haha, very cool game and I enjoyed it

Funny game! Love the silly faces and cutscenes. I did miss a bit of a challenge, like an enemy or a time constraint, but with it was fun nonetheless. Good job!

You can feel the bulk through the music.

This is pure art, in all its forms, from start to finish. When I say I died laughing
My favorite so far

It's just a crazy game, and I've watched an amazing story unfold before my eyes. It's an incredibly funny game. A pleasant art style, cutscenes that are set TO MUSIC. This is a masterpiece of cinema, absolute cinema!

The spirit of the game reminded me of another game where a meteorite was supposed to fall to Earth and you could do anything. I don't remember the name, but it was quite popular.
LDJam user 41775810 Oct 2025, 02:13
The graphic is nice, the music is perfect.The way you've coupled the mechanic creates a puzzle dynamic I've never seen before. It feels like a natural evolution of concepts from Braid.Your approach to visual storytelling here is masterful. If you have a moment, I'd be genuinely interested to hear your thoughts on my own project, ICE BOMB RUNNER.

Pretty funny, one of my favorite entry so far, the humor is on point and the art direction is really good!

the one thing I liked less is the gameplay itself, I would have enjoyed more mechanics than "walk toward the target"

still, congrats !

A very interesting GameJam game! You collect (eat) everything on the map that can be eaten (including humans, which sounds like Hannibal). The gameplay isn’t complicated and is quite satisfying.

The art style is also nice, and the cutscenes contain many internet memes, which is very fun. The alien beauty at the final ending is also well drawn.

The music during gameplay is very powerful and matches the fast-paced gameplay, humorous story, and art style perfectly.

One of the few shortcomings of this GameJam entry may be that it could be difficult to further develop it into a further full game with the current gameplay. But I think it’s enough for everyone participating in the Game Jam to enjoy playing this game and for the author to enjoy creating it.

Nice game and cool memes, but why could I eat cows but not cats, and why is my cat a thicc alien goth gf?

Jokes aside, the game looks really polished. I really liked the cutscenes and I appreciate the short gameplay. Good work and congrats!

game was funny af, specifically the cutscenes with a lot of references, also the ending was very "unexpected" lol, the art was very good, overall great work!
LDJam user 33733611 Oct 2025, 19:48
Banger music! I really liked how well executed is the game, core loop is there and it works. The art was very funny, I smile and laugh a couple of times. Good work!

It's a plus for a game so short to have mute/sound :thumbsup:.

Small suggestions:
* The game will flow more if the character doesn't stop at everything that eats
* The animation when you eat something is very quick, I don't realize how much I've eaten, maybe a combination between slower and some animation on the counter would help

MatthewDrake12 Oct 2025, 15:32
Love how absolutely ridiculous the premise is, short but sweet and fun game. I can't really think of anything I'd critique, it just seems like a good game jam game! Great work on this!

Absolutely complete chaos art! It’s very similar to the works from another small town, but yours seems more fun (it’s really hard not to laugh); a 100% abstract piece, you could definitely make it to the trending list.

Surfa23 Oct 2025, 20:51
Really enjoyed the cutscenes. Loved that you put some story into a jam game. My main complaint was I feel like you put the scoring backwards. Surely 200/300 (200 out of 300) makes more sense than 300/200 (get to 300 but you have 200?). Overall one of the best entries I have played this jam. :thumbsup:
