This game is really fun and it fits perfectly with the LD42 theme! Congrats!

Cool humor. Good idea that the food needs some time it gets destroyed in the stomach. Like the effect with the black shadow passing by.

I got to 12.8kg. I had fun playing it and enjoyed the ending!

Super funny game! Totally fits the theme, and the evil grandma made me truly laugh the first time I saw it :D Super original take, well done!

Essentially (in my experience) you run out of time instead of space. Other than that this game was amazing! I loved how your health is represented by the frames on the wall, or the mirror that shows you your grandma approaching. The concept is really funny and the lines your grandma sais are also great. Keep up the good work!

Hahaha :D awesome, like someone commented already: relatable. Nice concept and I loved the graphics and the comments from the grandma. I didn't expect so dark ending though! :smile_cat:

Really enjoyed playing your entry,good job on the creative idea :-)

You've probably got on the wrong side of grandmas worldwide now you've discovered their secret plan.

Jokes aside, I really liked your game. It's funny, the inventory management mechanic is both addictive and tense as you try to optimise the space in your stomach to shove all that food down, and it feels really polished in terms of graphic and sound. The granny's ninja appearances are hilarious.

The only odd thing I've noticed is that dropping items on the grid doesn't always detect a cell even if in theory it should, which can be frustrating at times. Not sure if it could be because I'm playing on a relatively small window. For example, on the screencap the cursor (Windows didn't feel in the mood for capturing it, it seems) was roughly in the center of the bacon:

Other than this, everything works really smooth. Congrats!

PS: 8.6kg :)

hahahaha. So fun and so real (at least here in Spain). I went so fat (14Kg) XD

Also I thought it was no end, just like the real grandma. And a good idea for the theme. Congrats!

AAaaaand the grandma like a ninja shadow of the food is great xD

I liked the graphics and the sound. Not crazy about the gameplay but i liked the twist at the end.

dumivid 2018-08-15 19:21

Funny and clever. I did not even thought about this when I made my game, kinda original. In addition, the best part is how smooth the game run, to only problem is that the game itself its very repetitive and too long because of that. Overall, good job.

Graphics were top notch. Music fit really well with the aesthetic as well. As others have said, the main gameplay loop isn't super compelling, but the charm of the graphics were enough to keep me playing. You could add a sort of adjacency bonus if two foods are the same type then you digest them faster and then put a not lose only ending as well to finish things off to give it some extra oomph. Both are post jam things for sure. Great job!

Have fun out there!

Love the humor & art style ! Verry good game like it also the ending :p Keep it up pal !

pyjamaboy 2018-08-16 11:18

Very nice game and fits the theme well. At times I found it difficult to place food in my stomach making it quite difficult and slow to fill up though was overall fun. Hmm the grandma is weirdly similar to my grandma. Should I be worried?

lootgrounds 2018-08-16 11:41

The ending just broke. I was 10 minutes laughing. Elegant game for phones. I would undoubtedly have played. It is sticky and simple as Flappy Bird

wildcard 2018-08-16 11:59

Completely relatable. I enjoyed the humor and clean artstyle, the music fits the game and the LD theme is used wonderfully here. Well done! :D

flower 2018-08-16 12:05

This game is fantastic! I really like the idea and graphics! Great game!)

sgtweirdo 2018-08-16 12:23

Wonderful game! Graphics were really well done, funny concept, good gameplay! Good job! :ok_hand:

chronicbite 2018-08-16 12:23

Very charming little game, congratulations you did a great job!

xumr 2018-08-16 13:06

That twisted twist! :smile:

mrerdalural 2018-08-16 13:12

Very funny game! Simple idea but it feels complete. I had fun playing it!

sam-machell 2018-08-16 13:38

great game! reminds me of rhythm heaven a lot! (which is a good thing)

korso 2018-08-16 14:11

Cute little game. Loved the graphics, the ending and some little touches like the grandma shadow before the items update. The mechanics are simple but well thought, too. Good job!

pranjalbisht 2018-08-16 14:47

I thought this game was so relatable until I saw the plot twist. What the bloop!

athena-av 2018-08-24 12:27

Very interesting game. I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 42 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/7ueEev7q6Kg
