You found a really cool idea ! When i was a kid i played games like diner dash so i understood the premise pretty quick :D Its a shame that you couldnt add more minigames but i think you have learned a lot from this project. Like other comments say i did not get what to do in the minigame :d.
Overall i think it has potential to be a great game you should work on this after the jam to see what you can achive :D
Note : I would be happy if you could play my game as well :d
Glad you liked the idea!! I've never heard of diner dash before, i watched a gameplay of it and it seems like it's a pretty fun game, maybe I'll give it a go tonight!! (I don't think I'll work on the game after the jam though, but we'll see... :3)
As for the minigames, yes I'm aware of the problem. The minigame is unclear to the player, especially because I never explained how to play :C, probably you already found out how to play, but you need to keep the dots away from each other.
Of course, I'll play your game as soon as i can!! Thanks Your for playing my game and for the kind words!! (^u^)
I found the game a bit confusing, but eventually I figured out at least how to choose the right drinks. didn't really figure out what the circles minigame was. I like the idea of your game and I like that picking the right drink was more than simply adding up numbers to the right value.
The dots minigame was just a dummy test minigame i made in 10 minutes to make the minigame feature and work on the input for the minigames. I tought of the minigames as a cooking process for every ingredient that the player must not lose in order to make the tea (Example: pieces of peach are falling from the sky and you must caucht them in a teacup for the square peach), but sadly i didn't managed to finish the minigame feature, so all the ingredients have the same minigame atm :/
Thanks for playing my game!!! (^u^)
Listen to me, I really want to know how to make a tea, because I think that the concept has a lot of potential and I think the texts are very funny, but I didn't know wtf I had to do on that circles minigame hahahahaha. Seriously I think that with some more time you would had achieved a magnificent result mate. Good job, I encourages you to keep trying!
Yeah, the game has this problem of being confusing and no clear... sorry for that '^_^
Ok, in order to make some tea you need to go to the customer (dots on the right), you rwad their order, tou go to the counter (big rectangle to the middle), select the ingredeint, you go on the stove (square on the right) you play the minigame (keep the dots from not touching each others, drag them with the moise) and tou submit the order to the customer
Yeah if i had more time i think this game would have turned out great!! Sorry for the late respone, but you caught me eating!! Thanks for playing my game!! (^u^)
Yes, I understood the steps to follow (and without any help :D). The only thing that I don't know is how to move the dots in the minigame, because I only can move the ones in the first square. And then suddenly sometimes randomly I get a prepared tea hahahahaha. Maybe adding a gameplay video in the game page is a good idea for example (even if only for a next jam).
You're supposed to move them with the mouse... Now if you're saying to me that you can't move the dots in the other square... I think you have might have found a bug that i wasn't aware of... :/
As for the "sometimes tea gets gone randomly", i forgot to remove the cheat keys form the game, so maybe you press it while trying to figuring out the controls... try to make a random tea with 4 ingredients and let the dots touch each others, if the tea still manages to be done then you have one of them activated... (Restarting the game should reset the cheats)
I tried again and now I can move the dots, but the prepared tea doesn't appear inmediately. Something strange is happening I think.
Yeah, that is indeed strange... Obviously that's a bug, i'll try to fix it after the jam is over... Sorry about that :C
As a cooking mama fan, I was excited to play this game. It took me awhile to figure out what to do, and as others have mentioned it's a little confusing. But I think you got a really good idea here, and maybe with a little extra time to make the gameplay clearer, and to polish up the ingredient mixing mini game, you'd have quite the fun little game. I'd love to make some tea!
Man, even though i can't really call myself a fan of it (i think i played only 1/2 title of the series), i love cooking mama!! It was also a inspiration for this game!! =D
I'm sorry if the game was confusing, l agree: The game needs a better explanation and a lot of polish, to be even considerate as close as playable. I hope it didn't left out of your expectation too much because of it... :/
Thank you for playing my game and for the kind words!! Go make some tea!! (^u^)
I like the concept. I definitely see potential in this game and how you might be able to extend the idea further. Great effort! ^_^
I'm glad that you liked the concept!! Thanks for playing my game!! (^D^)
concept is good. but visual is quite bad. btw I think this game will be better.
I don't think the visual is that bad :/ I think the game has worst problems than that... (like being hard to understand and confusing)
Still, thanks for the feedback and for playing my game!!!
