"Booo, boring" we hear you chant. However, thanks to some members of the community and in our YouTube comments (thanks you know who you are!) we have been able to improve some of the gameplay throughout the game as well as fix some bugs up! Thanks for playing I Am Octopus!

Very promising

Not so many levels yet but pretty fun to play. Looks good with great movement mechanics. The mountains are a bit glitchy and disappear but apart from that, promising! Looking forward to more levels and further development.

Disappointed

I was so excited for this release just for it to be almost $20, theres only 5 levels that can be finished in almost 5 mins, and theres almost no freedom thats not whats directed to be done. Even tho its only newly released its way too expensive for its quality and gameplay, its not fun to replay and it has so much ai in it like even if your not good at drawing or something ai still isnt good at all. So maybe take some notes and think more about what your doing with your game.

I am an octopus and I love it.

Good fun! Throwing yourself around as an octopus is a good time. I think our scientist friend might be up to something!

Very very promising

This game was really good! It had very few bugs that are probably being worked right now as the community that they have is really good!! Its short right now but i know they have some really big plans in the future!! They have really unique mechanics in my opinion!! And i overall look forward to seeing this game grow, and best of luck to the amazing devs!
