Left click to feed the baby.
If the baby gets food on its face, it will get grumpy!! Aim for the mouth. :)

I think it's a really simple but clean entry. I guess you chose the safe way. I would recommend you to get out of your comfort zone a little bit. Cute visuals and music btw :)
Really cute game!
A small indicator, like the baby closing his eyes before closing his mouth and opening them before opening the mouth again, would have helped.
I wonder how a little kid would feel playing it :P

Tragon - I wish we had some time to do that! You're absolutely right, it would have made the game better. :)
TomenLuca - I make mostly mobile games so I think I'm stuck in that mindset :D
fistmaker & bodsey - Sorry! We should have better feedback for this mechanic. If you throw food at the baby's face, he will get grumpy. So just be careful about getting it into his mouth and not on his face. >_<; We had very little time for testing so we probably should have made the grump meter go up slower.
Good conflict you've got there. "Do I get greedy and try to stuff my baby full in the shortest amount of time or do I take my time, but always reach the next step only by the shortest margin."
But as others said, maybe a few more hints concerning the opening and closing of the mouth would be helpful.
unfortunately for me, after the baby grows to the point where the camera pans upwards towards the ceiling, I believe the hitboxes get corrupted, because even though I'm throwing the food directly into his mouth, it splatters and he get's angry, and I'm unable to actually feed him.
fun game otherwise! :)
