Too Many Clumsies

There's a bug in the game, come back in an hour and it will be fixed

Clumsies are the hottest new trend in pets! These round, furry creatures emit cooing sounds when touched, which has a calming effect on the mind. They must be easy to care for... right?

This is a demo made in one week for a jam.

Instructions

• Use mouse to interact. Right click to cancel item.

Play as the keeper of a small clumsie colony. If two clumsies get close to each other, they reproduce. They can also merge to evolve new traits changing how they act.

Maximize your evolutions while inching as close as you dare to an uncontrollable population explosion.

Tips

• Items are useful for managing the population.
• Keep the population above 2 so clumsies can still breed.
• If too little clumsies are on the island, they get lonely and can't evolve. But if too many clumies are on the island, they are falling off. You lose if too many fall.

Theme

This is originally made for GJL Parade. This is our first time doing this contest!

"Every life counts"

• Managing the population and keeping all the clumsies alive is hard work. Inspired by pet management games and tribbles.
