Balanced Diet is a puzzle game about maintaing a balanced diet, where the idea comes after a festive feast during holiday season.

The game is based on smgbalib, and is a game/tech demo by Sebastian Mihai that aims to use everything in the library.

In 2016, Balanced Diet was produced as part of a limited-run series of 80 copies.

User guide

The purpose is to keep a balanced diet. You cannot become too unhealthy, but at the same time you wish to feel like you're living your life too, so too bland is also not good.

You have quite a healthy appetite, so you eat four foods at once (by pressing A) after you've moved the cursor to the desired group of foods.

Depending on what you eat, the following happen:

  • Four of a kind - Eating 4 unhealthy or bland foods will greatly shift the balance toward the respective extreme (8x score bonus).
  • Three of a kind - Eating 3 unhealthy or bland foods will shift the balance toward the respective extreme (4x score bonus).
  • Balanced (two unhealthy, two bland) - Eating 2 unhealthy and two bland foods will shift the balance either way, randomly determined (no score bonus).

Also, the time between "meals" is limited. As you advance through the game, you need to eat more frequently, so be on your toes (if you still can).

Food listing:

  • Unhealthy - Burger, Donut, Fries, Hot dog, Pizza, Taco.
  • Bland - Carrot, Green pepper, Lemon, Mushroom, Grapes, Turnip.
