Great Godot entry! Adored the aesthetic, great music and overall art direction. Definitely challenging, and I didn't make it all the way through, but I'm hoping someone can let me know what excellent story elements I missed out on :D Great job!

Really loved the whole idea behind this, a great take on the mode theme. 

The atmosphere is great, it's calming and it makes me want to know more about the world y'all created. The music is soothing and mysterious too. Overall a wonderful atmosphere y'all created. The characters all fit into this dystopian world. 

Cooking was fun yet challenging. I did not manage to finish the game because I had trouble flipping the food, but I hope to soon!

Super fun and original idea!  I really liked the use of the soft blue glow to highlight things and the really immersive atmosphere that the game has.

thank you! Early on the color palette was much different. It was a blue atmosphere with orange glows on the rooftops. Wasn’t quite happy with it so I tried some more pinks and blues. Glad you liked it!

What an atmosphere! You did not have to go that hard with the mood but damn. Absolutely bizarre game but in the best way. This is an absolute success.

Amazing job! I particularly loved the cooking mode, nothing beats cooking up some fresh food. I got hungry just by playing the game. Great work!

Incredibly charming and unique game. It is very difficult, yet it feels somehow warranted due to its innate design. Can't for the life of me finish this game completely, but definitely a recommend it.

thank you my friend! Appreciate the feedback. Working on things that will hopefully make the game more accessible at the moment

Some really strange vibes on this, and the instrumentation in the music is cool and unique.

I was not expecting an intro.  That was really well put together.  I'm not very good at it, but it was still very fun!

I have my mouse sensitivity really low by default and I would have had to adjust it in my mouse settings if I wanted to be able to play without whipping my mouse across my entire desk :(
Really cool game, though!

Unsettling but soothing atmosphere established off the bat from the intro. Cool music and a very unique idea. The npcs are whimsical.  I was really bad at poultry prepping but it was satisfying when I managed to do it right haha

I really loved the intro! The created mood was exceptional. I struggled a bit with the controls at the start, but I really enjoyed the game once I understood them. Great job, team!

This game is super original, very fun. It took me a little while to understand the controls, but once I got them, I had a great time. I had to go cook a real egg because it made me hungry, haha. Great entry!

haha I have heard the egg thing a few times. Glad to hear it. Also really happy people are getting hungry for eggs rather than feeling the urge to smoke lol

dude what did i just play. that was almost kind of transcendental? my friend said the dialogue was “like cowboy bebop if it was stupid”. absolute goddamn masterpiece. why am i cooking eggs with cigarettes? you know, for the taste. it’s fine. i feel like i’ve become a master of the weirdest egg frying you’ve ever heard of. the gameplay was very tricky, but it’s amazing for that. i feel like i need to check out your other games now, this was unlike anything i’ve ever played before

haha thank you so much! Cowboy Bebop was my main inspiration for the setting/world. Wouldn’t recommended my other game, it’s unlike anything you’ve ever played but in a bad way

This might be the most unique game of the jam. I love the environment and not to mention the cutscene at the beginning is incredibly well done. It's somehow unsettling and relaxing at the same time. Fantastic Job!!!
