I really how the game is designed. Although it took me a while to remember the color and corresponding manipulation. There is an important rule to utilize that the exceed number wont die instantly but decide on your next move. This really improve this game into a different level and I enjoy it very much. Good job!

I really liked the idea, even though it took me some time to recognize what I am and how to play. But after round 2 it was pretty clear how to play it. I really enjoyed it!

Loved it. I really enjoy games that can turn simple arithmetic into something rather enjoyable.

Such a clever puzzle game. Really enjoyed this, some excellent head-scratchers in there. My only complaint is by I still forget what the different colors of numbers mean, so some kind of permanent on screen key, or even a little +/- next to the values could help a lot.

Thanks for bringing it to me on stream, had a good time playing it! Really interesting mechanic that led to some interesting and rewarding puzzles. I appreciate that you changed up the mechanics over time, introducing them slowly throughout the game. Allowing for quick 'undo' and 'restart' are also extremely important quality of life features, so good job on recognizing that and implementing it. My only real criticism is that I don't think it strongly relates to the theme.

Overall, great job! I enjoyed playing it.

Clever little game and definitely made me think. Not much to say that hasn't been said already. You had a simple idea and executed it well. Good Job!

很有趣的想法,用数字代表饥饿程度,吃太多不会马上死,饿了就会直接在原地死掉,也算是很有趣的机制?
解谜难度不低,但充满乐趣。挺好的!

Excellent puzzle game, very cleverly made. I think this would really good as a educational game, a bit of polish and it'll be a really solid game. The graphics need a bit of polish, the contrast gets to the eyes a bit. Overall superb work!
