I had to stop playing this because I was getting too attached to the creatures. 10/10.
Thank you for playing indeed!
Regarding the question raised during the stream: creature names are a 1:1 mapping from the body parts selected, so creating the same creature always yields the same name.
Very fun and adorable. Love that they have all different names.
I haven't even played it yet and I LOVE IT.
