It seemed like a very simple premise, but once I got into it, the dynamic between eating the people and then avoiding them was really interesting. It's obviously not a fully formed game, but what was there was intriguing."},{"author_name":"belowzerogames","author_uid":"37630","time":"Aug 27, 2015 @ 3:34am","epoch":1440646140,"text":"Good job on your game , had some issues finding my way up to some of the higher platforms"},{"author_name":"dydx","author_uid":"38961","time":"Aug 27, 2015 @ 3:41am","epoch":1440646560,"text":"Fun game! Like another commenter said, the super high jump is weird at first but it works. The hunger\/morality mechanic is cool too.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I just love the animations... like how the dinosaur's eye smears during the bite animation. Reminds me of classic cartoons.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Excellent job and congrats on your first LD!"},{"author_name":"OrangeeZ","author_uid":"12415","time":"Aug 30, 2015 @ 5:22pm","epoch":1440955020,"text":"Great graphics and general idea!

The controls are a bit difficult and some bugs shows here and there, but it's a very clever and funny way to approach the theme.

I really enjoyed the reactions of the monsters as your morality got lower.  I do wish there was a way to regain morality if it drops lower than you want, or that I had found it if one exists (though I get it's a game jam, so you may have wanted to put it in and not had time).  Definitely keep doing LD and other jams, it gets more fun the more you do, as you learn more about how you best handle coding\/designing\/arting\/sounding in situations like this."},{"author_name":"Big Cow","author_uid":"51323","time":"Sep 1, 2015 @ 9:50pm","epoch":1441143900,"text":"HAHA!
