Feed The King by Dannyk1994
The king must be fed to keep this village alive! He seems to like that goo the egg people produce! Looks like we need to keep these egg people entertained and well fed! Whatever we do we can't let the king die. You're job is simple, KEEP THE KING ALIVE. If you run out of eggs you can always right click to plant an egg.
Instructions :
You need to drag and drop your items such as food,toy and mating.
When you drop all eggs within the radius they will be affected.
If you run out of eggs you can always right click to place one.
FYI - Eggs love muffins!!

I was able to feed the king with the goo and breed a lot of different colored egg people, but at the end the king still died. I think I missed a vital part of the controls?!

Definitely a great effort for just a weekend, and it wouldn't be tough at all to really polish this up and make it something awesome!
The shift-click to add to bank vs ctrl-click to feed to king felt awkward here in that it's near impossible to intuit that those were the controls unless you thoroughly read the help section. I would implement dragging goop onto your bank adds to the bank and dragging goop onto the king feeds the king. (Or clicking the goop banks it and dragging it onto the king feeds him)
I enjoyed the art, it had its charm for sure. A minor nitpick is the numbers on the goop were difficult to see.
@flyingbear I agree the mechanics are a awkward and need to change. Appreciate the feedback. The only people I had play test already new how the game work before they played it which meant I kinda designed the game with the idea that everyone already new how to play.
