Eat or Die! by colludium

[raw]
made by colludium for LD33 (COMPO)
A simple platform puzzle game. You are a rather hungry monster and if you don't keep feeding yourself then you'll die. I guess that explains the title... Eat enough people to stay alive in your quest for culinary heaven.

Requires a keyboard to play. I hope you enjoy this entry - made in 36 hours because I had to make sure that my family could recognise me....

I can't get past the tutorial. There is a jump on the first building the little dude runs into that is too tall.

Use Action to grab hold whilst you're jumping. Hope you have another go to see :).

Fun little game! Sneaking doesn't seem to help much, especially where it's first introduced when you have to jump over the block and scare the guy off, but overall pretty good!

Having to commit to a jump arc means you die a lot more than you should. It's not "realistic" to do this, but games where I can't change direction in mid-air frustrate me.

I like the animation as well as the game itself! I didn't find a way to not die when I jump too high after the first "house". Funny!

Sprites look a bit messy but the animations in turn were pretty good. Was smiling the whole way through because of people running off ledges and into spikes. Music and sound effects are also pretty cool and fit the general theme. Well done!

Good stuff. A bit rough around the edges, especially the jumping mechanic. The ledge climbing was genius. Such a little thing really gave you the feeling that you were controlling a "monster" rather than just a platforming character.

The animations on the monster were really nice, climbing and eating were really smooth. I liked chasing the little guys into the castles as well, especially if you could catch them just in time

The animations are really, really smooth. Like them a lot. I wish there was some kind of time indicator or similar so I could compare my different runs. Couldn't figure out how to sneak, they would always see me when jumping over a block...

Funny and nicely animated, cool game.

Great and fun game. Controls are fluid so it makes the game really fun to play. I died a couple of time because I jump from too high ^^'
Nice job !

The controls feel slightly clunky, but I really enjoyed playing. The animation on the monster feels just right. Great work.

What I liked :
- Nomnomnomnomnom !
- Great animations
- Painted art
- Audio
- Playable to the end without being boring

What imo could be improved :
- atmosphere consistency (arts / sounds / text fonts)
- originality (it's a pretty basic plateformer with a straightforward theme interpretation)

Pretty good overall, thanks for the game =)
