I found it quite hard to know what attacked what. Other than that it is a clever use of the topic.

A nice laid back game. Nice visuals.
It looks like there's strategy to squirrel eating spiders, cats eating rats, etc. and timing it right. So that was cool. More visual feedback with points when the animals eat the "Dark" could be nice? Otherwise nicely done!

Very hard game because you have to be very quick with the shapeshifting. Things get ugly really fast :)

Great use of the theme, took some time to figure out how everything worked and what attracted what. Overall good job!

I found a bug in the Web version, when I use the last spell in the tutorial, the whole tab freezes, and chrome replies with 'Aw, snap!'. The game works fine if not in tutorial. This is a clever use of the topic, but I did find it very hard to know what attacked what. The best thing is the graphics, they are awesome.

Nice concept, liked the way there was a pattern with which animals react to which shapeshifted animals. Would be nice if there was more feedback to make this more obvious with what is occurring.
