Trijam 155 - Hungry Pete
Play in fullscreen please
The theme and the idea
This is the submission for the Trijam 155 (theme "gameplay under 1 minute").
Remember the good old days, back in the 80s when the cool kids had the first digital game watches? Playing pac man or space invader on a black and white display with only a piezo sound available? I certainly wasn't one of those cool kids - so now was my chance to use this game jam to build my own digital game watch;
You are hungry Pete looking for his next snack; "eat" the food and "reject" anything that is inedible.
How to play
- The game has two types of items: Food items (apple, donut, pizza and cherry) and items that should not be consumed (bomb, cat, fishbone)
- Use left mouse button to click on "eat" to consume the item displayed - if clicked correctly you gain points
- Use left mouse button to click on "reject" to reject the item displayed - if clicked correctly you gain points
- The buttons are a bit messed up in the webgl build; try to click on the upper part of the button (too lazy to fix it - 3hrs are up, this is as good as it gets)
- After 60seconds, the game ends

Fun, easy.
I like the simplicity of the game, but mouse-clicking was very buggy for me.
