Teething
It's late at night, and while you're trying to get your toddler to settle in for a long nights rest, those pesky teeth start swelling and poking through their gums.
Use everything you have in the house at your disposal. Crunchy wafers, medication, ice pops, phone, and even some less conventional stuff once the desperation kicks in.
Teething was a weeklong project I've made while my son slept, inspired by his own teething (though we haven't fed anything living to him). He'd run around the room with his mouth open, latching onto anything for relief, with one of his favorite chew toys being myself or my wife.
We joked about him being a little zombie, and the idea for this game came to be.
Features:
Survive 6 minutes with an ever fussy toddler, who needs you to help provide relief to their gums or you'll be the next target.
Retro style design. Since this was a week long project I wanted to test myself with, I was more focused on mechanics and gameplay.
Use wafers, fruit, phone, medicine, pacifier, and more to sooth them.
Once the desperation really hits, more items will become available to offer, though you may need to do some work to get them.
A disgruntled neighbor, who seems to have never been around a toddler and likely wouldn't be missed if something were to happen to them.
A phone! Toddlers love phones, and this one even has the "Hi Ursa" channel on it so they can be distracted by dancing fruit and music. Maybe they'll even get up and dance around with it.
Pacifiers get thrown, medication can't be overgiven, food gets old and disliked, and certain items can lead to a direct game over. We at Flamez Plays cannot condone violence to children.
Real baby sounds, as recorded from my son while he chased after me in teething zombie mode. He's a great kid, but has some really killer jaw strength.
