A cool small strategy game! It was definitely fun to test out the different unit types - which all turned out to be pretty overpowered. I think you can beat every level without taking any damage as the enemies are not very aggressive. But it was still a fun challenge to explore the possibilities of using different units in different situations.

Fun game! The first level where you can only place snails was hard, but once I was able to get ladybugs I moped the floor with the enemies!

Cute sound effects!

Doesn't seem to be much game balance here and the enemies never made any attempt to do anything other than wander around aimlessly. It's a fun concept, and if the opponent did anything, this could be good.

the game is pure fun. I didn't get how to play first, but I put my snail on the board and started to dominate!

Really fun game. The art is really nice. The only thing that confused me was that the turn automatically ended when i moved a creature. Even if I had more then one.

Art, music, sounds, and even concept is really great. I have never been a huge fan of drag controls for interaction, other than that this is a really nice and polished entry. It also looks like this might be your first entry. Welcome to the Jam and really glad you are here.
