Looks promising but sadly the itch.io shows 404. I checked your games page but there it is also not listed. Maybe you didn't publish it? Would love to try it out

Nice high-score game! This is a very humorous interpretation of the theme.

@the-bm yes, now it works! tried it a couple of times. Looks like i'm not fit to be a pro :D simple yet fun game design and funny interpretation of the theme. Great job!

This is pretty funny! I would have liked some sort of combo bonus (if you feed multiple sumo wrestlers at the same time) I would have also liked if the controls were in game (a simple press space to drop food at the start) I also think more animations would make the game more engaging. (maybe the sumo wrestler increases in size with each food drop etc.

Cute little game. Was only able to get 170 points :-(

Pretty fun little game that I had to click on seeing the title and the picture. I think some fun visual feedback with the sumo wrestlers growing larger may have been nice, however that also throws off balance in a game like this so it's easy to forgive. There is unfortunately a bit of a cheese strat, but the game is more fun for not using it. Good job!

Beautiful art! The background really sets the mood. I wish the cat sprite had 1 more state to indicate "loading", because I wasn't sure when exactly I could launch another ramen bowl down.

I like the take on the theme lol. Kinda wish that the game had more, but it's a simple concept well executed. Good job !

I guess the title counts for both theme and humor? Cute little game!

@stowy Thanks for the kind words. I wanted to add more, but also wanted to make a simpler game.

@binroot had not time to draw art, so i used some from the net. Yeah a loading animation was missing, but the ramen bowl indicated, that you can drop it.
