In what way does your game fit the theme?
You have to hold up the eating and growing king with ropes, which you have to collect and combine to create stronger ones. They are Stronger Together!
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes

The concepts fits well and the sound effects were pretty fun ^^ I don't know if it's because I used a mouse pad but the ropes gets really hard to catch toward the end! Though it's part of the challenge, too ^^
Hey really solid idea!
I like that you kept it simple in regard of polishing it well. That is good for the gameplay. Everthing works fine and is really smooth! Good job!
The only thing for me to complain (because besides this its really good) is the timing or rather pacing.
I got a bit bored in the beginning and after a long while speed escalated so quickly. I would rather speed up at the beginning, such that you increase the pacing more in the first few minutes and less later. So you will have more fun in the beginning and will be more challenged to hold longer.
This was a great idea! The game was super simple and easy to learn, but fun to play at the same time. The only problem I had with it was that it got really hard to catch the blue ropes by the end, but I guess that's part of the challenge. I enjoyed this one a lot.
Thank you :)
This is pretty good for your first game jam. I thought the idea was really cute and funny. Also the graphics are simple and cute, and the sound effects and music are good. Some advice is to make it start a little harder in the beginning because it mostly waiting in the first minute. In the end, this was really fun to play, and I made it to the end of dinner with a score of 358 seconds.
Thank you for playing :). I agree, I should have taken a bit more time to balance the difficulty more. I will try to do better in my future games!
Fun game and a great take on the theme!
Thanks!
Lol, this is great. I lasted 303 sec. Pretty funny idea to have to hold up the king as he eats more and more. I wonder, how big does he get if you just keep going?
Thanks for playing! At the end of the game he will still fit between the walls, but gets pretty snug :)
I love the idea, it's a very creative take on the theme and the sounds were super cute :) Very well done, I had a lot of fun playing your game!
Thank you :)
This was so fun to play!!! omnomnomnomnom
I held out for 301 seconds! Wish I had a mouse, would have been easier than touchpad madness
Thanks! I can imagine it gets really hard to play without a mouse :0
very cute :D sound effects are 10/10, and gameplay was fun :)
Thank you! :)
This game made me smile the whole time I was playing. That king is precious and must be protected at all costs!
:)
Wow that was fun!
Thanks!

NOM!
Nice game, the sounds are fun!
Thank you!
the music and voice acting is cool, such a disclosure of the topic I have not yet met in other versions of this jam, well done!)
Thanks :)
simple but very fun! and this cute nomnomnom sound:))
only tiny suggestion is maybe make background a bit brigher - cute face expressions of the ropes are not very visible
Thank you for your feedback! I'll pay more mind to the contrast in my next game :).
I think your game is pretty unique in this game jam! I liked the sound effect and thought gameplay was fun! good work putting this together in a week!
Thanks!
nomnomnomnom. I got 353! It's simple but it's really really quite fun! Good work :)
Thank you :)
At first I thought it was a bit boring but then it gets pretty hectic! Was fun to play in the end :)
I got to 346 seconds.
Good job!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Pretty good game. A lot of fun and suit with the theme very well. :)
Thank you for your kind words and playing!
