The gameplay loop was very interesting cute and hoping for some update in the future!

That was a fun challenge! Love all the art for this, and the music and sounds fit really well.

Also one of my favourite interpretation of the theme I have seen yet.  Lovely game you made here.

Very cute and fun gameplay loop idea, love the graphics and music. It's just very ridiculous how fast the hamster gets thirsty lol. I could maybe keep up better if I clicked my hardest, but I enjoy having functioning wrists.

Pretty goofy, and incredibly hard as well. Draggin' and dropping was quite distracting, but otherwise pretty cool :D

Very cute, though very difficult!

This game is super hard :D I wonder what the high score would be…

It feels a bit too hard from the start to keep the hamster alive, maybe it could have been easier at the start at ramped up in difficulty over time?

Cute graphics and fun soundtrack, well done

I love hamsters. The graphics and audio are awesome, but I wish that pressing the drink and eat button would be more effective.

The game looks pretty good, the hamster is quite cute both in the game and on the thumbnail, I like the music, it has a nice vibe and matches the game pretty well, I like the chalange but it ended up pretty hard, I'm sure it is possible to get a better progress than I did but it's really hard to manage all resources, I'd make the falling food and water bars fall a little slower and instead of making the click on the icons pixel perfect, I'd make the icons biger and account for proximity to the mouse pointer instead of direct colision. Overall the idea is pretty fun and creative, I just wish the game had more care over the  screen text and UX/UI in general. You did a nice job! (Also the hamster dying is really serious)

Nice (and hard) game! audio and visuals are really really good, and the premise is also quite original. i just hope the rate at which the different "metrics" go down was a bit more balanced (or maybe just a skill issue on my part). nice job lads!
