I didn't think I'd be digested today! A very fun idea. Sometimes the camera would angle in such a way that I could only see inside the sushi model, but I was able to push through. Great entry. On a side note, I'm so worried that this dude has so many popsicle sticks and bottle caps in their stomach. And worms?! Very Osmosis Jones of you.

Now I'm not going to chew my food anymore so it can have a fun time before it gets digested

Amazing vibe and a really creative concept! Never would've thought the journey of a california roll could be entertaining! Great graphics and mood, but camera and character controls leave something to be desired. Overall very unique and daring entry, excellent work!

This is a really really good use of the theme, highest I've rated a game in theme so far. Camera was way too touchy and controls while sliding didn't feel like I had enough control, but good work not giving me game over for touching bad guys. Last thing I would've liked to seen a shadow under the food as you jumped.

I was dodging the fork for a good while there, that was kind of fun in itself as well as it was funny. Interesting interpretation on the theme and an interesting game!

Interesting! I got jump scared by the worm flying towards the camera in the second sliding section! Took me too long at the start to realize getting hit by the fork was how you started the game!

Why has this guy eaten so many bottle caps?

I was worried that this might be a little too gross for me, but after seeing the GIF of the sushi I just had to try it out! Here's my experience:

- This gold tooth is hilarious.
- Why the heck did this guy swallow so many bottle caps?
- I don't know what this fluid is shooting across the tunnel as I slide down, but I'm not the least bit surprised that this guy has holes in his GI tract.
- Tapeworm?!
- Uh oh, don't go towards the light!

The slide parts were my favorite, although a bit more control over the character would have been nice. It got frustrating on the last part knowing what I needed to do, but being unable to execute the proper jump or slide to avoid the last obstacle - I think I overcame it by sheer luck than anything else.

Overall, a very funny game, and a good theme interpretation. I love the heavy lean into absurdity!

Man I really enjoyed this. Very creative use of the theme and great execution! It reminded me of 2000s Rareware games Lol Very well done!!

Well that's certainly a creative take on the theme. Is this implying the person is really into eating bottle caps and popsicle sticks??? :stuck_out_tongue: Really nice ambience you've got in the platforming section. The slide part was a bit difficult to control which was a little frustrating, but the checkpoints so you didn't have to replay the entire thing were a nice touch. Liked that the tapeworms jumped out at you too. Not bad overall!

I also thought the take on the theme on the theme is pretty interesting and stand out

Neat you got to implement a few different areas and different types of gameplay! Would have loved to see this get fleshed out more (pun intended) but great amount of variety for a short jam.
