How does the game fit the theme?
You have to eat food from aliens, but can you trust them?
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
We forked this library for cutting food.

A really fun game! The game jam theme is implemented very well, and the game has a great atmosphere. The music fits it perfectly and adds a lot to the overall experience.
dragging a cut through the pink wedge and watching it shatter into chunks so i could check the inside before right clicking to eat it is a genuinely new mechanic, and the eyepad telling you what the food should look like makes the paranoia earned. eat or starve but trust nothing is a great read of the theme, nice work
Liked the music, had a nice bop to it. And I must admit I got carried away with slicing things up. Was really well done, and the pressure of the hunger and then you rush and eat something bad is fun.
Interesting game. Enjoyed playing it. Good job!
Similar idea to our game, but different game loop, cool! But I prefer to have a onboarding(or maybe just menu where I can safely investigate food description) to understand clearly how to prefer different types of food and may be I want to see any special devices to cock food to make it safe to eat. So anyway, that was cool and I like it!
Amazing game mechanic, such a game like this looks really hard to pull off. Awesome job team!
Really cool idea and execution. The cutting feature is sick and the fact that there can be stuff just completely hidden inside made me even more paranoid and cut every food open.
Original AND actually fun? Seriously impressive, good job
Lovely game! Once I figured out the interiors of the food it was pretty straightforward to keep my hunger at 90+. I do wish there was a way to flip the flat food over quickly because it was hard to see inside it when cutting. I think adding levels where it gets progressively harder by adding more food types, sneakier poison, etc would be a neat touch if you wanted to expand the game. I didn't have any bugs or issues and overall I thought this game was super fun! Great job!
Really hard game to get a hang of but also quite fun and very creative. Theme was well met. Only criticism I have would be the amount of food, that drops on your plate, it was a bit overwhelming. But thats just tweaking numbers :)
this is such a creative game. i don't think i have ever played or even heard about a game about eating before.
also, the game loop is very satisfying (loved the crunchy sound effect that plays when you eat something). my high score was 3 minutes and 44 seconds (don't know if that's a lot)!
very cute artstyle too!
as others have already told you, maybe it would have been better to make it so that you can rotate around with your mouse, maybe doing something like what world of warcraft does, or what the sims does, where you have to press a key or button in order to be able to use your mouse to orbit around with the camera.
allowing you to rotate objects while dragging them with right click would've also been really cool.
but those are just quality of life improvements, the game itself is great. kudos!
Loved this one. I think that randomizing the "safe" foods on the eyepad every round could give this some more replayability ^^
Really cool game, graphics are great and it's a neat concept.
The only thing I would really change is making the camera orbit instead of Q/E and Z/C but I really don't have any complaints!
Hmmm space donuts....
Good job It's a really nice game !
The cutting mechanic and difficulty curves are cutting edge (pun intended) tho it's a bit frustrating to play on web because the mouse keeps going outside of the of the screen (but heh just have to download it then)
The only thing I think was missing (tell me if I just can't read) but is there a way to rotate food items ? I often got fooled by a mold spot hiding under (that or I'm just bad at finding differences).
Thanks! If you have trouble with mouse going outside of the screen I hope going full-screen can solv that problem. As for rotating food - nope! You can rotate the camera and drag food items around by holding right-click. Though it sounds like a cool mechanic to add, noted ;)
Great original idea. The controls to move around were sadly a bit of a hindrance for me personally but the core idea is really great. Maybe add a highscore-list so people are motivated to survive as long as possible :)
The music made me start bopping along to it ^^
Blop is adorable. Being able to throw food off the plate is absolutely priceless
Pro: I get to eat space donuts.
Con: The space donuts are lethal. Tragic betrayal.
Such a cute concept! Adding the book mechanic was a great touch because it keeps the game from feeling like a basic memory test.
A few small quality of life thoughts:
Glad you liked the game! :) There is camera movement with shift/ctrl to speed it up. Just use WASD to move around and Q/E to rotate!
