Funny, I played this right before I had dinner! I dig the art style, really gives off a storybook feel! The opening was a nice touch, and adds charm to the game. I wish there was an ending to go along with it!
The game-play kind of reminds me of Super Mario 2, and works well. It's always fun throwing enemies about, and eating the enemies to spawn med-kits (or fruit) is a neat way to heal. The game has a good length for a dare game, without feeling needlessly bloated or reusing content. Something new appeared every wave, which was a nice touch.
The controls were a little off at first. It took a couple of tries before I noticed the beam of light, and understood you had to hold the direction you wanted to grab, and that you didn't just grab whatever is in front of you. Once I understood that, the game became much easier, and much more fun.
The flying controls on the other-hand were somewhat inconsistent, and seemed to ignore my button presses at random intervals.
The game also had some small bugs. The shop keeper's text would sometimes cut off before the end of the sentence, and other times, when you grab an enemy, it'll stay over-you can you can't eat or throw it. I once had 3-4 vegetables over my head! But thankfully, nothing game breaking.
Other then those two complaints, it's a great package! I really enjoyed it!
