Thanks for playing and I appreciate the feedback!
You didn’t really miss anything about when/what the animals were eating, it’s something that needs improving. The food counter on top flashes very briefly when it changes, but it’s likely when the encounter text shows, so you’d never see. There is a tooltip there to see how much is getting consumed, but it’s never telegraphed, so there’s no reason to mouse over and discover it. Still not sure how to get players to discover that, maybe just have it on screen all the time in a corner.
Mobile is a good idea, if I can figure out how to make it fit.
