The Little Monsta by Catmoo

[raw]
made by Catmoo for LD33 (COMPO)
This little guy only wants to get bigger, can't you help him out?

Controls are in the game but for reference W, A, S, D or the Arrow keys will control the little monster, and that's all you need to know really.

Other than that he cannot eat anything that's bigger than himself.

The game was made in Game Maker with Photoshop and my voice along with Bfxr.

This game has a lot of potential! I really did not like the audio (it seemed to loop itself and it made me want to turn off my speakers).

The mechanics were fun, although I got stuck under the game boy and had to restart the game once.

I wasn't sure why it ended so soon. I was hoping to be able to devour the entire level :(.

Fun Katamari style game, but it is too short.

Cool little game, the monster character is great. And love the fact that there is a collection! That's a brilliant feature!

This is a nicely packaged game. I like the art style and the collection page offers a nice hook for re-playability. It's definitely a good fit for the theme.

Super cute! It's a shame that it was only implemented to one evolution stage. I loved eating gameboys, dell laptops and watermelons though :D

Though I could never get my monster to evolve to anything except for the gold chained chav monster??

The camera was a little jarring when you increased in size.

Cool - I like the style! I kept playing a few times to try to collect everything, but I couldn't work out how to collect the other monsters. (I wondered if you turn into a different monster depending on what you eat? I don't know)

Nice game, but couldnt finish the collection. Seems like other evolutions are missing?

Neat concept; I had trouble with the view jumping around a lot (and the level up audio hurt a bit), but the game was fun to play and progressed well. Good job.

I loved the game! It's really cute <3
Also, mad katamari vibes there. How can you not love anything that plays/looks anything like katamari?
