Keep Gapejaw hydrated while he eats for his life in this fight to the death.

Featuring:

-Eat-em-up action

-Food

-Eat-em-up action

(I'd recommend you try without instructions at first, hoped part of the game would be figuring it out....but providing more detailed instructions below, since after a couple play-tests I've come to realize nothing in this is clear at all:

GapeJaw is in constant need of hydration, as the shrinking bar on the left shows. To rehydrate you need to drag the wine above his mouth, which refills the bar. If the bar empties it's game over. At the same time food approaches GapeJaw, you need to drag his mouth open with your mouse to make it fit around the food's shape. If you are unable to get it around the incoming edible in time GapeJaw will start to choke, which blocks any attempts to drink wine until you clear out the obstruction with butter. Similar to the wine you just need to drag the butter squeezer above his head to clear up your throat.If you succeed in eating an item without choking you'll get the chance to spit out the uneaten remains. If the remains land in the bucket, you get a point. Repeat as necessary.)

THIS IS THE BEST GAME OF THE JAM. Good mechanics, it was a bit unclear at first, but I agree with your description, half the fun is figuring out wtf is going on. :P Despite the unconventional-ness of this game, it's really fun and unique. :)

a TOUR DE FORCE.

I lol'ed when he started choking. The sound effects are perfect. Delightfully silly concept.

Haha, that was weird. But funny! It wasn't too hard to figure out, what was to be done.

Graphics is fine, too. But maybe you should change the font style. It is illegible.

By the way. He died at the end but didn't choke. That means, I win, doesn't it? Or did I lose? I'm not sure. Maybe make that a little clearer.

Really funny game! :D And an innovative mechanic!
I missed a sense of progression or variety after some time though.
