Not sure why but I couldn't get your game to start on itch. It was stuck at the 'press any key' screen, or just showed the unity bar. I'll try again later.

@rargrave , the issue is most likely just that the game is too laggy to play in your browser. There is a direct download available on the itch page. The windows version should work perfectly. Let me know if there is any issue.

I originally thought the head was an egg to hatch lol.. Until I saw it getting fat. I think with more time to polish would make it really fun. Like customizable CJ in GTA SA

I couldn't have enough Tacos. I mean really, who can resist tacos!? I got so big I couldn't even up onto the 2nd highest platform anymore :(.

Nice concept, fits the theme well and I liked the music a lot. One bug appears to be that the game continues once the time runs out. It says game over but I could keep eating until my greedy hearts content :P

Good job with the game!

The game about me :D

Also, you can jump from the wall. Like the Ninja. Like the VERY FAT NINJA

Gameplay: pretty simple run-collect gameplay. But you cant affect to drop items, so its feels frustratings (when you waiting drop time, and cant do anything)

Anyway, get fun from the game.

Honestly this was a really fun idea that even I worked with in my game for the compo. I like that you get fat as you move on. I also like that its' in 3D, and you used a cube with a head for your person haha. Well played where you slow down and lose your jump force as you get fatter :).

Check out mine too :), it uses the same idea.

Nice concept!

Pretty creative

I really like how the character becomes fatter and heavier over time. Pretty funny concept. Also, I suggest looking onto how to make a smoother camera. The fixed, high sensitivity camera behind the character makes me sick haha. Good job

Best sound track yet!

@criggles @mosegames I am overjoyed that you enjoyed my music. I started learning how to compose music maybe 3 months ago, and it is encouraging to hear that some people actually like it.

Nice entry! I enjoyed watching my character get longer the more I ate.

Hmm, I appreciate the idea, but there's very little reason to jump around in the area you've got. The blocks aren't really in the way, and most of the food just falls into the big flat area. And no matter how big this guy got, he could still turn like a monster. Also, I don't know if this is a bug or if it's specific to my computer, but I didn't get any timer or weight score on my screen, like in your screenshots. I just played in mystery until it ended. Neat concept, but it would need some work.

Neat concept! The graphics reminded me of the early N64 games (especially with the rotating 2D sprites). The music was very relaxing and made for easy listening. Thanks for creating this game.

Everything is bad except the audio and the fact that it fits the theme.

I had fun running around eating the food and getting the time extensions. The game definitely followed the theme well, getting heavier and moving slower and not being able to jump really came through. I felt like for a large portion the part about being heavier didnt' really affect my game until I was around 210 pounds in the last 15 seconds it suddenly felt like the movement slowdown was realy noticeable. There's major breakpoints around not being able to make certain jumps. I would have liked to see those played up more. Like if there were multiple levels so it was more obvious that some jumps could no longer be made. You could even extend this by making it so that at early on you can make a high jump but later on you are too heavy and you have to take the "stairs" which is a series of smaller jumps and takes longer.

I like the pickups art!

sarafilipa 2017-12-18 12:44

Liked it very much! Pretty simple but fun game. :D Liked the colorful graphics too! Congratulations!

cawrtz 2017-12-19 12:25

Congratulations on your entry, but I did not have very much fun. It felt like it lacks a goal.
