Theme
Good take on the loop/cycle of life.
I couldn't really find the connection with a loop
I've seen something similar before, but this is a really innovative approach to the life-loop theme!
There is a life loop.
It does interpret the theme really well
Enjoyment
Confusing. Uncertainity about when character could bear offspring was confusing and reduced enjoyment.
The game had such funny sounds, I kept laughing
I love the style, reminds me a lot of the first Civilization games. I think I got enough enjoyment out of it :)
Its not clear on how should i play it.
Felt somewhat boring
It was really jarring to play.
Aesthetics
Feels like a bit of mish-mash. Water is perhaps too animated.
The art was beautiful!
Really liked the game idea, however the core mechanics are too unexplained and after 2 restarts the game bugged out
It's solid enough to understand what's going on, but abstract enough to leave things up to the player's interpretation. Both the story, art and even the audio feels like an old civilization 1 era game, giving a really solid aesthetic.
Nice background music
Art and music is really nice, some sound effects aren't tho
Innovation
Good take on the theme.
As I said, I've seen something like this in a multiplayer capacity, but it's definitely more original than most of the games!
Never seen this before
Bonus
Some points on the unique take on theme.
For design
