Created in 72 hours for the Ludum Dare 47 game jam.
Theme: "Stuck in a loop".
Grab some delicious sushi at the sushi bar ... if you can. The sushi is super fast and the other patrons are hungry too. Can you grab all the sushi you want without overeating? Controls
Mouse - click on the Grab Button to get the sushi in front of you. Credits
The chaotic bouncing around of the sushi made this very fun! If I were to change anything, I would make it so that you could only grab one sushi at a time. Other than that, great game!
Great concept for the theme, and I love the art style. I wouldn't mind a subtle way to see if you're overeating, I was mostly just guessing. Well done!
Graphics are awesome! The music you chose fits perfectly too, sounds like its pulled from a yakuza 0 side mission. I didn't realise I was only supposed to pick up a specific type of sushi at first so I thought it was bugged but then I figured it out.
Wonderful graphics and music! The bouncing sushi animation was also especially fun. It took me a few tries to understand what I needed to do, even after reading the directions. Nice entry!
@guardaro@brads-space@verso Thanks for the helpful feedback! I agree that the UI is not very clear in communicating what to eat/to do. Something to learn for the next Jam.
It's a good game :) The gameplay was fun, a bit addictive even, haha. - One thing that's *REALLY* missing is a restart option. I was trying really hard to get a perfect score, but after overeating I had to refresh the whole page, which wasn't that convenient. - Sometimes when sushis were shaking, it was difficult to distinguish between them, but I guess that's part of the fun. - Also, when you miss one sushi, you still grab the next one for a looong time.
Fun how the sushi goes crazy ! Reminds me of Overcooked a bit, all the crazyness.
I did found that the hitbox was a bit random though, I didnt get a good feeling of when the hitbox actually validate for the sushi to be eaten. Granted I am terrible at those sort of games, I think it would help to have the hitbox turn green or something to highlight the frame at which you can take the sushi !
@daimadoushi Thanks for the very constructive feedback! You are right, the hitbox can feel "off" or lagging behind. I will keep that in mind. At the moment the hitbox is active as soon as the hand touches the circuit (3 frames of the animation I think). I should have played tested that more ^^. Thank you again.
At first I didn't read it properly and kept grabbing at all the sushi so I ate 34 pieces of wrong sushi haha. Once I figured it out I realized this game does have some depth to it and requires a bit of skill to grab the right sushi in the middle of a bunch of wrong sushi.
I had a bit of trouble telling the two brown sushi :sushi: (one that looks like fish, the other that looks like two ... sausages?) apart when they jolt around so fast :( Never made it to anywhere perfect score :sweat_smile: That aside, the art is good, and the game is funny! =)
That was a fun idea. The art style all fit together really nice. Thanks for including a volume slider! I was pretty terrible at this game but thought it was a great entry. Awesome work!
Cool idea, and the art style is great ! The game is a bit too hard to be really fun, there is not enough feedback to understand why you fail when you do. Maybe it's because everything goes a bit too fast.
@jrevel Thanks for the constructive feedback. You are right, the UI and feedback are not very clearly communicated. I will keep your advice in mind for a post-jam patch.

Good work though !
Eat as much as possible.
I like the raging sushi.
Great graphics and nice use of the theme!
