No recovery. So don't feed it files you can't miss.\r\n\r\nFour things to keep in mind:\r\n1. Feed by dropping files on Kilo's face.\r\n2. Don't feed him too much, he'll get fat and eventually puke.\r\n3. Don't feed him too little, he'll get sick and eventually die.\r\n4. Mouse over to get info on how to feed him just right.\r\n\r\n\r\n----\r\n\r\nDidn't have a lot of time for this Ludum Dare so decided to dive into making Chrome Apps and make it fun while doing so. I ended up with this Tamagotchi type thing where your home computer is your one screen and the little Tamagotchi figure is the entire game. Hope that makes sense and I didn't bend the rules too much :D","title":"Kilo Bite"}
