terrible controls, loved the game
great work!

Developer

Thanks Sean! Unfortunately I waited until the last minute to do the HTML upload and didn't realize the controls I had been testing with on my computer would translate so poorly (and outright not work) to the web version. I have an update planned post-jam which should address that and the other last-minute change (screen resolution) that caused the major bugs. I appreciate you taking the time to play my game, thank you!

Magnificent soundtrack!

Developer

It brought me so much joy to develop this game with this soundtrack. Massive thanks to Kevin MacLeod and the Royalty-free music section of https://incompetech.com/ . Thank you for taking the time to play!

Reminded me of Katamari Damacy. I liked have to eat things and navigate the level to grow. Though the on screen effects sometimes made me feel as though I ate something I shouldn't have? That would be an interesting addition I think, things that make you puke and loose weight.

Mouse controls are not exclusive when running in a browser unfortunately, made controlling the game very challenging.

Would like an option to turn of the farting sounds.

Thanks for the feedback, love the idea of bad food! I hadn't uploaded an html game to itch before and it looks like the control scheme I went with doesn't work well in a browser (on the desktop build it's a lot better controlling) will have to figure that out. Thanks so much for playing!
