What effect do the 'Hungryiness' and 'thirst4Dew' stats have?

Disclaimer: (Yes, this is a real game)

In the Montage parody game (GAME OF THE YEAR: 420BLAZEIT vs. xxXilluminatiXxx [wow/10 #rekt edition] Montage Parody The Game) the stats shown in the top right of the screenshot below seem to tick up as you move around, and can be reset to 0 by picking up the Doritos bags & Dew cans respectively. Picking up these items also restores health.

But I haven't seen any effect (negative or otherwise) from the stats alone.

Do they have an effect in-game?

Solution 1:

I decompiled the game source code, and it shows that if your hunger (or thirst) "points" are at 100, it applies 5 "starve" (or thirst) damage every 3 seconds. These can both apply at the same time.

public float starveInterval = 3f; 
public float starveAmt = -5f;


if (lastHungerTime + hungerInterval < Time.time) 
    UpdateHunger(1f); 

if (hungerPoints == maxHungerPoints && lastStarveTime + starveInterval < Time.time && hitPoints > 0.0) 
{ 
    HealPlayer(starveAmt); 
    (Instantiate(painFadeObj) as GameObject).GetComponent<PainFade>().FadeIn(PainColor, painTexture, 0.75f); 
    if (hitPoints < 1.0) 
        SendMessage("Die"); 
    timeLastDamaged = Time.time; lastStarveTime = Time.time; 
}
