Clever gameplay on top of weird premise.
This is a very tough game to review, because the content of the characters and story is going to be conflicting. While not explicitly a fetish game, and certainly too difficult to effectively play one-handed, it does have some bits and pieces with somewhat icky associations. The worst one I have seen so far is some kind of transparent bottle-lizard thing that requires you to consume and expel slime enemies into it to weight it down enough to push a button. If it was just a glass bottle or other container it would be fine. The actual size changing mechanic is very, very well done. There are multiple ways to affect it with different enemy types and environmental hazards which fill the bar, which can give you a boost to combat strength at the expense of agility and changing vulnerability to different types of attacks. Common enemies can be defeated and eaten along with food items to fill the bar, which can both fuel magic attacks and be digested over time to regain health. Slime can fill the bar but deprives you of magic attacks and can't be used for healing, however can instead be spit out as their own projectiles and make you glow in the dark. If you have neither food nor slime to consume, you can suck in air to gain size and power, but it depletes over time and won't help you with certain puzzles. Juggling the size, speed and power is engaging and works very well, and it makes for a challenging game. However, it does have a few problems with weird hitboxes, blind falls and some cheap traps. Covering the bottom of some areas with thorns when you have no way of looking down gets old fast. The graphics are adequate. The cartoony illustrations and style mostly works, though the actual pixel art isn't very advanced. Turning anti-aliasing on looks very ugly, and it has few other options. Soundtrack is alright, but not stellar. I have had the game freeze once forcing an ALT+F4 shutdown. Otherwise seems to run fine. Decent indie game, if you can -stomach- it.
