Astrozoology

Help a researcher discover new species and exotic new worlds! Perform experiments and observe alien species in their natural habitat. But be careful! Not every species will respond well to every test, and some may even be able to force you to retreat if you provoke them. Try to gather as much data on anything you can find before you return home! (Note: This game has no save system, so make sure not to close it until you're done! The close button is the X in the lower-left corner of the screen.)

Enjoyable, kind of like a simple text adventure game. The non-human species theme is definitely the main one here, but warp is still present enough, overall great job with the themes.

I love a bit of speculative biology! The game was interesting though more of a fun way of presenting some ideas than an actual *game*, kind of reminds me of some educational game you might play in school (in a good way). I feel like with a little tweaking of how things are presented it could be gamified a bit more, since there's definitely an element of "do the wrong thing and you lose the potential information gained from other actions" that could be expanded on.

Tutorial could have been more guided Click anywhere to continue instead of clicking arrow Loved all the text Very creative creature descriptions, handled the limitations well

Visualizing the creatures would be very cool. I loved the ship flying segments, it reminded me of old Atari games.

Love the speculative biology of all the different creatures! Neat to see how different creatures reacted to different stimuli.

Pretty neat exploration of the various alien lifeform concepts, I liked the inclusion of the scanning minigame too for navigation, helped space things out.
