This game had me playing for quite a long while! It does have some issues with the collision: the character doesn't have any way of sliding against edges, so it's hard to access curry when it's in a nook. And when I finally died, I lost all three lives instantly.

Besides those issues, I would suggest adding some more detail to projectiles, like an arc on the curry so that tossing it is not quite as simple. Also, give the movement patterns of the walruses some more predictable elements so that I can form a plan. The game uses a lot of RNG right now in places where it could have some kind of chaotic pattern, something that varies but follows a predictable logic.

Really neat! And, gosh, great effort hitting three jams at once. My one suggestion would be adding an sfx and/or animation when a walrus gets fed - you can tell if your aim/timing was ok as soon as the walruses surface again, but it's the kind of thing that'd be good to get instant feedback on. Nice work!
