Even in this simple form those were very satisfying moments.\n\nThe two major complaints as an experience were that the camera drags too far from the player when at full speed, and that the grounds are too sparse of resources. Having a larger harvest of non meat would help balance the play while waiting for a big score of meat AND it would help with player trace direction in relation to the plant if too far away. The speed of the play was excellent and easy to replay. The plant's small bits of animation do well here. \n\nOverall, 4 out of 5 Moranises and one dentist would recommend.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"MikeSalyh","author_uid":"1055035","time":"2020-04-23T03:35:39Z","epoch":1587612939,"modified":1587612939,"text":"It's a good thing he's not a picky eater ;)\nThis is a fun concepts with nice animations on the plant!

The flower totally ate me after I murdered a person, and just left their carcass at the edge of the map while picking up another vegetable as food instead.  Totally worth it.\n\nI did like that the veggies came in at very short supply, which really made the moral choice a difficult one.  The character moves exceptionally fast, though, so I found it rather easy to pace myself and scan the entire level pretty easily.  I'm not sure that was intentionally.  Additionally, it often felt like the camera was having a hard time catching up with how fast the character was moving.  It would have been nice to move the camera ahead of the direction you're moving, thus providing a preview of what's in front of your character.\n\nThe little arrow that always points to the plant is *super* useful, and highly appreciated.  That said, I would have liked it if it was somewhat bigger and more clear (e.g. maybe make it highlight when you're holding something?), as it was difficult to see where it was pointing sometimes.\n\nToo bad the sound didn't make it in.  There were some funny details I've noticed that would have definitely been accentuated with the right sound effect.  Sounds like this was a bit tougher to make than usual.\n\nGood stuff!\n\nQuick Edit: Also, would have been nice to have some landmarks to better orient myself on where on the arena I actually am.  Again, this was where the guidance arrow came to the rescue, but still, it would have been nice to see something besides the light floor all the time.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"No Grapes Games","author_uid":"1148118","time":"2020-04-24T05:24:58Z","epoch":1587705898,"modified":1587705898,"text":"Nice graphics!

First you gotta kill - EXCUSE ME?? The music is also shaping up nicely.\nFeedback time! Very on-theme, quite fun. Because the ground has no detail, going far away from the plant feels dangerous, so it's like the game is discouraging you from it? But that's where the yummy humans are!\n\nI appreciated the directional arrow showing you where the plant is at all times, that does what it's supposed to do: it encourages exploration, because you won't get lost.\n\nThe main character slides around a bit too much for my taste, and the controls aren't tight. I expect the game to be forgiving with its collisions- let me pick that fruit not only when my dude is colliding with it, but when it's in a larger radius around my dude. Exactly like you did in the post-jam, so I know you get it <3 The controls are tightened too!\n\nI love that Meh will eat you if you're near for too long! I love the sound fading when you're further from the action! Because the playfield is a little bland away from the action though, maybe the sound should fade towards the plant instead of the other way round? To keep the exploration interesting.\n\nAll in all, the goal is pushing all your existing mechanics to the max. Which I see you're onto. Very impressive for 2.5 days!","likes":1,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld46\/192685-03b2b9c59d645e96a4cd9efed1aeef7b.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/MrTroyD\/FeedMeh","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"http:\/\/patterport.com\/feedmehna","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"https:\/\/mrtroy.itch.io\/feed-meh","text":"Youtube"},{"url":"http:\/\/patterport.com\/feedmehwa\/","text":"Youtube"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"58779","g_author":"1000106","g_event":"LD46","g_eventkey":"77","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"269364","g_title":"Feed Meh","g_status":"PVT1","g_place":"1993","g_commentcount":"19","g_site2_node_id":"192685","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"192685","n_urlkey":"269364","n_parent":"176557","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/46\/feed-meh","n_slug":"feed-meh","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"106","n_created":"1587158051","n_modified":"1588475533","n_version":"636286","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":192685,"parent":176557,"superparent":9,"author":106,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2020-04-20T21:25:15Z","created":"2020-04-17T21:14:11Z","modified":"2020-05-03T03:12:13Z","version":636286,"slug":"feed-meh","name":"Feed Meh","body":"![ScreenShot.png](\/\/\/raw\/a6\/z\/2e3a2.png)\nDoctor C.
