Game's Take on the Theme
A lunch themed boss rush using a Lazy Susan as the main game space. All mechanics revolve around manipulating and spinning the Lazy Susan strategically.

Did your team make the majority of the art and music during the jam?
No. The only aspect of the art that we worked on was the boss and his animations. We didn't have the time or manpower to do much of the 3D Modelling aside from the table itself.

If not, please link to any asset packs or resources used here.

Really cool and unique gameplay! I like how fast paced it is! The boss is really creppy, those twitches he makes is a nice detail!

Loved your take on the spin linked to a shared element between the Player and the Bosses. At least for me, it created this ahá moment when forcing the boss to make them eat something rotten at high points of the business lunches.

My only issue was that sometimes was hard to see the icons over the foods and trying to know what were their modifiers.

Overall, a super nice entry. Great Job!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Visual clarity is definitely something we'll be working on to get right, both in terms of how much health + energy each food gives you and the clarity in terms of powerups, thank you for playing and enjoying the game!

Really unique and amazing game! anything but ordinary, the game feels really nice to play and visuals look so good!

(PS: If you're willing to I'd love it if you can rate and leave some feedback on my game! This is my first ever jam and I'd love to see where I can improve for the future!)

Developer

Thanks for playing!

It's a very simple yet very fun game. Gives me buckshot roulette vibes. Like the unique implementation of the theme into the game and the strategy element of slamming the table at the right moment to have the boss eat the rotten food and managing energy. I personally think that it's easy to forget you can throw plates, I only get reminded because the boss starts yeeting theirs at me, so I retaliate, I am more focused on the dishes and trying to give him the rotten food and me the delicious ones.

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot for playing! This is really interesting feedback, because we were honestly worried that the opposite would happen where players would rely too much on plates and not slam bad food on the boss at all. This is just another thing that we'll be taking very deeply into consideration when balancing the game as we expand it. Much appreciated

Everything except an ordinary game ! Nice job you did on it. Would love to see it as a part of bigger game.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! We're definitely planning on expanding it into a full release 

Submitted(+1)

Wow, it is so innovative and unexpected use of theme! The art style and ambience are great too! I think the concept of this game has great potential which reminds me of Liar's Bar, keep up the great works!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the recommendation, we'll definitely check out Liar's Bar and see what we can pull from it in terms of expanding the game even more!

Hello! I had a lot of fun playing Your Soul Is Mine, and the secret maxed-out boss was an awesome touch to test my skills at business lunch etiquette. Props to the cheeky writing and solid gameplay mechanics!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and trying out the secret boss!

I loved this entry. The art is amazing, and the story written and delivered perfectly. The difficulty was just about right for me. It took a couple tries for me to beat the final level, but it wasn't frustrating. All the music, sound effects and visually effects are really well done. The combination of emails and dialogue to convey the storyline worked quite well. I couldn't figure out what the ??? plate was for, since it just seemed to make my screen go black, but I thoroughly enjoyed this game. Awesome entry!

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing, we're really glad you enjoyed the game! The ??? is meant to be a superboss version of the fight but the scene transition doesn't work in the executable version unfortunately

The premise is hilarious and well executed. The controls are snappy and really accentuate the feverish pace. Super well done.

Developer

Thanks for playing!

What an amazing entry. One of the best implementation of the theme. Definitely one the games that is top on my list.

Developer

That's very very kind, thank you so much!

Super imaginative! loved the game, amazing use of the spin mechanic, I was hoping that we had lunch with different individuals each time lol but considering the time we had you did an amazing job, this game could be a commercial game for sure, hope you guys keep working on it! Very Good!


Developer(+1)

Thanks for the vote of confidence about turning this into a commercial game, that's a real strong ambition of ours in regards to this jam!
