Thanks for checking out our game!

Warning, alternative options may make Dad sad. Thanks for checking it out!

We knew we had to make the lawnmowing experience the best of the best. Thanks for checking it out!

Thanks for checking it out!

Thanks for checking it out! That's good feedback. You can do next dialogue with LMB. But allowing a player to play one handed and use E would be a good quality of life improvement. Thanks!

Thank you for checking it out! Glad you liked it

Thanks for checking it out! Glad we told the story well :)

Thanks for checking it out! It was our first time tackling something like this, happy we accomplished it within the timeframe!

Such a charming game! I love that the star tells you it's okay when you die. Keeps the player from getting too frustrated. Good mind control!

Great submission! Super unique idea.

Thanks for checking it out! It was a challenge, but I think we pulled off the emotions we were going for :)

Thanks for checking it out!

I'll reply again to drop some hidden lore for your contemplation.

We had originally planned to go further; beyond the watering hole. You would consume the hippo, and the oxpecker would still be insatiable. You as the newly crowned king of the watering hole would venture out into the world to continue consuming hippos. Hippos of all kinds. Hippos of all shapes. Hippos doing all sorts of things. Driving to work. Raising familes. Investing in the hippoconomy. The only cure for the oxpecker would be to consume the entire planet... no... hippoverse. Until there was nothing left. Only to eventually succumb to starving in the abyss of space alone. Thinking back to the simple days of ticks, maggots, and flys. Where did it all go wrong?

I feel like you're the only person who TRULY understands Hungry Hungry for Hippos. Thank you for checking the game out! This comment made my entire week! :)

Thanks for checking it out! I agree, I had planned to add a large falcon/predatory bird as a hazard for the player but ran out of time!

Thanks for checking it out! Yes I wish I could have made thresholds to consume the land creatures other than the hippo. Requiring you to eat them in a certain order, but ran out of time!

Thanks for checking it out! Very mindful, very demure

Thanks for checking it out!

Thank you for checking it out! As our first game jam we definitely wanted to keep it simple, glad it was a success :)

Thanks for playing the game! Yeah I wish we could have had some animations as well, like the frogs hopping around instead of being stationary. I appreciate your feedback!

Thanks for checking the game out! I agree with your feedback, we ran out of time to balance the spawn-times out more, but it should definitely be faster towards the end!
