i feel like if the movement might be a little slow or the flashlight too short. I know the point is to only recocnize junk food when its a bit too late but if the game was a bit more hectic by dropping more food and giving the player more movement speed, the player is bound to make mistakes sooner or later. Other than that; cant complain about visuals or audio, the games definitely on theme, i like the idea with the flashlight and the game runs in WebGL which is pretty hard to pull off as i learned recently. props to ya and keep on making games :) Good stuff!

How does you game fit the theme?
You have to catch the fruits. The thing is some of the fruits are not real some are junk foods in disguise. You have to use the light to identify which are real.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
all except the theme music. I got it from YouTube free music.

Love the concept here ! and the gameart is really good ! Had fun playing it :)
I really liked what you did with using the light to reveal the junk food. Gives extra depth to the "catch this" mechanic that I think makes it fit in quite well with the theme and be quite cool.
Good old mechanic of catching objects. Very funny sounds, really like it)) Good luck
Those potato chips to pretending to be apples are evil, cool idea! Maybe they can use this in schools to educate kids about healthy food ;)
Maybe more could be done with the flashlight, like making it more difficult to point but have a larger range?
Great game to relax to! Only problem is that there is that unlucky chance that when you restart, you have to restart again. Otherwise, great job!
I rated your game, would appreciate it if you could do the same for mine :)
Now this is a good game. Its nice and casual but requires a lot of concentration if you want to get very far. Relaxing, but at the same time a bit stressful when you're dashing across the screen to try and catch an apple that might be lays. The only tip I have to offer is that you should clear all the falling objects when you die. It's kind of a niche scenario, but if you die and immediately restart, there will already be a fruit halfway fallen down and you instantly lose again. Good Job!
Incredible job especially for the first game jam! I really like the graphics and the theme is perfect for the visuals you chose! I love the concept of having to reveal the junk food that is falling! I played through it a couple of times and I think your reveal mechanic is great! Usually what took me out is that sometimes the fruit would spawn further away than what I was physically able to travel to in that time, but I was really feeling the pressure! Nice job!
Great game the disguise is really tricky too. Its really good how u introduce what to do. Rated it! If possible do rate my game :)
Amazing for your first game jam! You even had an animated tutorial which is 1000x better / higher quality than many games I've played.
if you guys don't mind can you rate my game at https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1414080. Your rate would be so much appreciated since you need ratings to be able to qualify for the game jam. thanks a lot!
The idea is cool and i see how it fits the theme. But most of the time i didn't have enough time to react either if it's a junk or healthy food.
