Great work! Enjoyed.

5 stars for innovation, love the idea!

Absolutely love this take on the theme!

Great idea! Score 8500... The one eating is a reeal pig. Or he eats too much. :D

Great idea! I like it, and a great take on the theme. Too bad it was unable to record via fraps for my LD27 video compilation series :/

The overall game is fine and it's nice to see a different take on the theme. However the difficulty curve is not great. It takes forever for enough to be falling that it becomes interesting - and then in a split second it's just raining food!

I really like the graphics and you know it could have needed audio. I also found it difficult to put things in the trash... wasn't sure where to click for that.

Starspell: Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I definitely needed some less-linear math on the difficulty curve.

To put items in the trash, you just drag them onto or above the trash and release the mouse button. If you're too far to the right or left, it will fall beside or in front of the trash instead, so you do need to be accurate. Chicken legs are (by design) the most difficult thing to put in the trash because they're the widest, and strawberries are the easiest.

The idea is funny, but that's about it. The gameplay isn't challenging enough.

None of my food hit the floor. I'm a veritable food ninja.

It's more like the 30 second rule in my house.

Really cool idea, nice one :)

ciderpunk 2013-09-08 14:44

the progression could have been a bit better, too easy for too long then impossible with very little between

Great interpretation of the theme! The problem with this kind of gameplay is, though, that it's a bit of an all-or-nothing affair. Assuming the player has a roughly fixed cleanup rate, they will keep up until the incoming food rate gets higher than that, and then things go south very quickly. I got to 7800. This would be better on a touch screen!

Good game, but the graphics might be better.

zyxer 2013-09-08 18:44

Haha, the idea of the game is really funny! :D

zequack 2013-09-08 21:44

Nice take on the theme :)
The beginning is kinda slow though.

jwolf 2013-09-09 03:02

Nicely done. The trash over-flow was a nice touch.
