Bring Me Food by cimbaman

CONTROLS:
Left and right arrows - Move


Additional controls:
R - game reset

Author note:
This is my first game jam, and my first time doing any pixel art (if you can call what I did pixel art). I am very satisfied, and I hope you have fun playing it as much as I did making it.

Neat game. Would have liked more progress or a way to fail.

Just a nitpick, but the music is off-note... it bugged me slightly.

I love how the only thing the king does is eating and yet everyone is happy with this kind of ruling.

too bad there is no scoring or anything. Needs more challenge. But pilling up food for that ogre king coul be nice.

Check out Digicross, playable in solo/multi/coop :

Music started to pour out from my ears, but the game itself is good and score system would be great!

Neat little game. Music leaves something to be desired though. Nice work!

The gameplay is fun, and flows nicely! Good work on the art for your first time, as well. Keep it up! :)

Nice. Good first game jam entry. I dig it. Good art, simple and fun. Suggestion for the music: have more things going on in it. The same melody over and over again does get a little grating, and other voices and rhythms and chords would help.

Also, in Game Maker, the source is actually a .GMZ file, not the .GMX. Not a big deal, though. :)

Nice graphics and the gameplay is simple and intuitive. Would be good to get a score and win/loss condition but all good. The music is some crazy atonal/chinise inspired thing - very interesting! Good work

Nice idea, but needs to be more challenging. Graphics are good enough!

simple idea, but non-the-less fun.

music gets a bit repetitive, but that's understandable for the time limit.

I liked the effect that moving has on the stack of food (causing them to sway back and forth).

nice job for you first game jam! :)
