I'm competitive so I did play a bit heheheahhaha but I love this! In love with the pixel art and the mechanics are fun. The audio is a bit loud but that might be me. Super!
I played three times and did worse each time :P haha. it's very rewarding to gravity-slingshot bad items off the screen, but of course risky... but I just couldn't help but go for it :P (the gravity wobble effect at the start looks nice, too!)
My high score was 62 :)
Loved the amount of effort that went into the art and visual polish! I'm enamoured with fish-eye effect that happens whenever you start a run, it's awesome when jam entries delegate the time to adding stuff like that.
I found it somewhat cumbersome to utilize the pixel drawing system; it was hard to see where my mouse was through all the screen clutter as the game went on, and I felt like I was blocking good stuff as much as I was blocking bad stuff, so eventually I dropped using the pen and exclusively focused on dodging (which itself was really fun because of the way you could whip objects away from you using the gravity field).
Regardless, I really liked this one!
Loved everything about it! The art was great, I loved the story part and when the actual game started I just laughed so hard. Thank you for making it :D
ok, it was actually funny
tbh, pen feels a bit out of place there(i may have too low reaction time to shield this little dinner from junk food)
