I like how this game made me strategize how best to run around in circles so I survive for the longest amount of time. The level 1 humidity zone was so nice to have even though it didn't replenish the hydration levels. I think it would've been cool to make the cucumbers also replenish some hydration because they're mainly water. That way they could be different than the mushrooms and also could be placed more sparsely as super power ups of some kind. Great work!

This was really cute! Love the loop of going to replenish hydration in the high humidity area, then running to find some food before starving. Very clever.

I've read the page description. Of course it would have added a lot to have the mushrooms grow randomly, but in 3 hours you've managed to make a functional game and that's great. What's more, the limited number of foods means that you have to cover more and more distance, so the game gets harder and harder. So it works!

Very cute game, I love the difficulty of it! A sort of "game over" screen with a score would be great :).

I liked how thorough your tutorial was - it would be very easy to misunderstand the humidity zones and what they're for. It's a cute game! I enjoyed it. Never thought I would play a game as a woodlice 😂
