Very cool, but the eating is wonky. Love the art.
Love flower references in the back)
As many have noticed, it's difficult to understand how (and how long) things work. But transformations themselves are interesting.
I really like the graphics. I agree with others about the time it takes for the mouth to open (or, in fact, some small indication that you've pressed the button would go a long way). I then found that you can just hold the spacebar down and only worry about moving left and right! Still, great fun!
Hello there! this is the artist here
I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who rated the game and gave feedback!
Unfortunately though, I know about all that bugs that's been plaguing Henry and I'm not sure if the team would like to continue working on Henry anymore D:
Nonetheless, I'm grateful that you took the time to play our silly little game. We hope you all enjoyed Hungry Hungry Henry despite it's shortcomings :D
this is really nice looking, very well developed! My ONLY complaint is that it's really unclear what you can and cannot eat. The eat button takes so long to open your mouth that I can't tell if I missed my timing or if there's some kind of a size mechanic where you can't eat everything until you grow for a bit. It's really unclear how all that works, which is a shame because the gameplay is so simple and fun. I do kind of wish it had more vertical space to see things coming, though.
All the same, the art is great, the audio works well, and it's fun to play with so good job!
What a good idea about more vertical space! Henry should be able to eat all the objects but I do think that the bugs make it much more confusing than it should be.
Thank you for the feedback, I'll keep these things in mind when I work on future games!
:O Where is this from? this looks like such a funny movie
it's Little Shop of Horrors. The second best musical in existence! Screw 3D effects when you can have a carnivorous plant puppet.
(For anyone curious the best musical is Dr Horrible's Sing-along Blog)
The game is simple and I really love your art style! The main problem is that the animations are too slow, so you have to press the button before the items show up.
Really nice game! I love the art and the eating sound! I found some bugs tho :') You can't die if you don't hold space, and I wasn't on my first time playing, so I ate a bunch of poison and didn't die xD I actually didn't know I was suppose to just hold space, so the eating timing was very hard to get. But it's a really cool game! Great work ^^
Thank you for the feedback! I do agree that it is kind of hard to play. Sorry for that, I couldn't playtest it much until the very end D:
278 points not sure how good that is. I became a television several times and also got a duplicate, didn't understand when the duplicate happened. Also the meaning of the plants in the background was unclear, maybe some achievements. It's a little to fast to be able to both se whats coming and decide to catch it or not.
Don't you hate it when your plant starts eating all your clocks and then turns into a clock itself???
Nice game :P
really sick art man. Sum things u can improve really quick to up ur chances:
- make the house hold item layer on top of the plant's layer. Makes more sense when they fall through the plant
- enable the fullscreen button
1. You do bring up a good point about having the objects layer on top and we'll keep that in mind if we ever continue to work on Henry!
2. hehehe it actually lags when I enabled the fullscreen button so I decided to omit it. But if you really want, I could enable it just for you :D
Thanks for the advice and we hope you enjoyed Hungry Hungry Henry!
I love the art and animation
The art is really quaint! Definitely encountered a few bugs here and there though xD
Overall a pretty fun game!
Charming art, it was fun eating the households! I like the power-up mechanic too. It took me a while to figure out I had to hold the spacebar lol
beautiful pixel art, and henry is the greatest fictional character of all time. 10/10
