Ha I love these kinds of controlled chaos games! Great idea, both fun and funny
It was a pretty good game. The acceleration of escaping a hippo led to more hot water. Great concept. I would never have thought of this myself. The camera was a bit hard to aim though. Top-down view would be an improvement. Good difficulty too. Despite not being able to get passed level 4 (Due to what I think is lack of skill) it was still fun. The models were good too.
I love how the game ramps up in difficulty, and even you restart it speeds up the pace. The chaos in stage 8 was so much fun!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
The fact that you go through the levels faster after having played them once is genius, it kept me playing trying to see stage 8 haha. You weren't joking, that is when the fun begins!
Glad you had a good time!
I like vfxs it really helps to understand whats going in game. I would add scores to overcome previous tries.
Scores is a good idea!
I like that enormous exaggerated bang when the hippos are eating. I would definitely not like to trade lives with any of the marbles. :)
Thanks! Haha me neither
Very cute and very hungry hippos! Great idea, I like the "eating" effect. Very nice submission.
Thank you!
this is pretty fun! i do really appreciate how the rounds you've already played go by faster so you can get right back into the more challenging action. i also wasn't expecting mouselook, but it would seriously benefit from the ability to see from a top down perspective. overall though, very charming and engaging!
Thanks! I agree, the camera could definitely use some improvement. A top down view would make it easier to navigate. Appreciate the feedback!
A unique perspective of the balls in Hungry Hungry Hippos! Super charming with creative mechanics. Great job with this!
Thank you!
I love your hippos! They are adorable. The explanation of mechanics is clean and clear and I had fun trying to survive. Well done :)
Thank you! Glad you had a good time.
