Great game. Looks and plays great. Very impressive for a game made in such a sort amount of time.
(The audio is also great. Mixing it a bit better could improve it even more such as making the sound of the worms on the apple a bit louder.)
This is very bizarre and I love it.
This is impressive for a self-made engine! Great job, I know how tough it must have been working directly with OpenGL

super cool concept, funny gameplay
I was confused at first because I didn't read the directions... lol. But after that, this was so cool! More responsive controls and more content I think could make this a really legit game, even for not a game jam. So silly to be a fly wandering around on bits of food. Great work.
I love the game but man i think tank controls were a bad choice for it, it's VERY confusing with a moving camera, after the first few food pieces I was used to it enough but still having camera based movement would have been a lot more fun!
I actually managed to survive in the end, now he's just staring at me forever!

@raptor851 thanks. I understand the issue with the controls. Actually I tried programming camera based movement, but that was made extra hard because the player can walk upside down or sideways, so I did not have the time to actually polish that.
Cool to see you pursued the tiny opportunity to actually survive the bite that was meant to be fatal :), I haven't been able to do it myself 😅

Great concept! I feel like camera rotations are a bit messy - are you using Euler, not Quats?

@adncoach Thanks! I agree. I am using quaternions and matrices, but [the code](https://github.com/hilkojj/flipkaas/blob/master/source/ecs/systems/CharacterMovementSystem.cpp#L171) was written in a rush. It has to account for the player walking on any side of a food piece **and** it has to keep the monster in screen at all times.

Cool concept, wobbly game play.
Wow, you made really cool game!
Holy crap, what a game! You've clearly put a lot of thought into this, and the technical hoops you've had to jump through are truly impressive. I like your note about casting shadows in the direction of gravity. It's such a seemingly little thing, but I can't imagine how difficult it would be to navigate without it.
Great job!

What a funny game! I don't remember having played a game like this before. It is a unique and creative take on the topic, has a great look and you implemented nice sounds! For me the camera/ walking directions felt a bit confusing, but with some practise it got better. All in all a very cool game!
Very funny game! I really enjoyed the game. You should make a sequel too!
this was amazing, loved the physics, the controls feel stiff sometimes but I like the concept
This is a very unique and funny concept, and very well implemented too.
Only one thing is bothering me: who would eat a whole plate of dead flies? :smile:

It's impressive how much you've managed to do just by yourself in three days. Giving off very old-school platformer vibes right away, plays nicely and smoothly. I had a problem with characters not rendering in Safari browser, and text skipping characters in Chrome, don't know what could affect that. Other than that, game worked perfectly. Great job with the entry!
I really like the graphics and concept, but the way the controls work with the camera made it way too hard to control for me.
I think I would enjoy it a lot more if you could control the camera
Ha ha, what a weird game (in a good way)! A lot went into making it work, I can tell. My only gripe is that the camera/controls were a bit too wonkey for me to be any good at it. Did make it to the apple after a few tries, but still died. Great work!

Arr the great maw cometh! Fun little runner - had some trouble with the controls (they weren't very intuitive for me) - but got jumping/flying around. I did realize later that if one of the zaps got eaten you're basicly dead. Maybe it would have been nice to not have to get all zaps to jump for a bit of grace. :smile: The graphics and animations were pretty neat - nice atmosphere.

Super cool game! The concept and graphics were really, really good. I especially liked the sprinkle launchers, for whatever reason. My only complaint is that the controls didn't always work as I expected/work that smoothly, especially when the camera was actively changing perspective. Really nice work overall, though!

Kudos for the gravity fields this is super cool especially in a self made engine, very impressive Interesting little game, quite cool, but I think the controls prevented me from really having fun with it, but I understand that it's very hard to make it work well with such levels haha The game looks good especially for a self made engine, congrats on this entry!

Guys, have you thought about developing your own game? It seems to me that this is quite interesting. The problem is that alone it is very difficult to develop something of high quality. Or it will be an indie project. But it is better to turn to successful companies, they can significantly save money and time on development. For example, I often contact [animation services](https://ilogos.biz/game-art-production/) to reduce waiting times. It's much more efficient.

I usually think about several choices for the game that appear favourable to me. I recently discovered alternatives with bonuses due to a review on this site. This is in my opinion, are extra chance for a brighter and more fascinating game https://topcasinosreviews.in/casino/leonbet/ And I realized that you can also spend time with benefits and privileges.
