You are an alligator named Pak. (Is this a reference to Pac-man? Maybe.) The sun is going down, dinner is rolling in off the far bank, and you have not eaten in four whole seconds.

Hold to open wide. Let go to CHOMP. Eat everything... except the bombs.

The gator chomping through a run of apples and cherries while bombs bounce off his snout

One button, one life

There's no health bar and no second chance. 

The menu

At night a fish leaps into his mouth, then he snaps up a kebab and lets the bomb on its skewer bounce off

The whole menu: apple, cherries, donut, melon, burger, orange, star, chili, rotten apple, coconut, fish, kebab, fuse cherry and bomb

Controls

[SPACE] / [CLICK] / [TAP] ... hold to open wide
let go ...................... CHOMP
[ESC] ....................... give up, back to the title

That's all of them.² Plays in your browser with a keyboard, mouse or touchscreen. Best with the sound on.

² there is technically also a button on the title screen. He eats it.

About 

I wanted to challenge myself by prototyping a small game that can be controlled with only one button. Eventually, after some quick brainstorming I landed on the mechanic being a mouth controlled with the spacebar. Then I thought why not have a little angry guy try to gobble up food. Thus HANGRY... was born.

Main inspiration for this game was flappy bird. I played that game a lot back in the day.  This being a prototype, feedback is appreciated.

Enjoy,
Andrew :)
