How does your game fit the theme?
You try to keep peace and prevent the family members from exploding with rage.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Code and animations yes, but all audio and most graphics are from online sources, modified for the game.

Such a cool game!!
At first, I was honestly very confused, it's kinda hard to realise what you can interact with, and how. I was trying WASD, and stuff, until about after a third playthrough I figured out the mouse haha. Maybe make this more obvious or something.
HOVEWER! A very funny and a very well done game! At first crazily uncanny, but then very funny and action-packed!
I really like the art, sounds, and the theme usage !!
Great job :)
Thank you for the praise! Yeah, we could mention in-game that you just need to click on stuff with your mouse.
Hi I have played and rated, if you can rate mine. Thanks. I liked your approach to the game jam, quite unique from the games I have rated , enjoyed smashing my mouse on the record player :-)

Thank you!
The art is 10/10 and the theme too!!! Really smart implementation of the theme, fun game and pretty refreshing to play this, got 6/6 in first try, everyone happy <3
Thank you so much for the praise! It's a pretty hard game, so it's cool you got all of them on your first try!
Impeccable replication of the uncanny valley feeling from old win98 games with rendered cutscenes. Very funny and perfectly captured the theme!
Thank you!
Hectic was right, haha. Makes for a fun one. I like the style and the music/sfx were good choices. I believe I should have ready the page fully before playing, but the anomalies (lets call them) could probably be indicated a little clearer.
Thanks for the feedback!
hahaha such a funny game i love it, art looks very good!
Thanks! I can't use a gamepad right now but I will play your game before the ratings period is over.
thank you, looking forward to to your gameplay experience :)
Finally played it! :)
Very interesting concept, and a blast to play! keep it up!
needs more audio visual feedback for what can be clicked on.
Very funny game, had a blast playing it! On my first try I was completely lost what was going on, but the second try I barely got everyone out alive xD
Thanks! Glad you gave it a second try and beat it! :D
"0 family members survived dinner"
Ah, just like Thanksgiving!
This was a fun game. Took me awhile to understand what I had to do but watching them explode was entertaining so that was great :D
Well done!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it even with that ending! :D
It gets pretty hectic really fast later on, I survived with all 6 still alive though. Great game and had a blast playing it. I really loved the graphical style too.
Thank you!
hilarious, was hard to figure out what to do at first though
Thanks!
its great how most events happen at the same time.
There's a randomizer, but that tends to happen pretty often. Thanks!
I LOVE caotic games, like this one. I think it would be better with a tutorial because I didn't know how to play. Also can you check out my game? I'm 13 and would REALLY like some feedback.
Thank you! Yeah, a tutorial would have been good.
Funny piece! The theme approach is creative and it's hilarious to see how the dinner comes out of control. Gameplay is pretty simple and engagging. I'm missing the family dog, maybe looting some food on the table :_D
Good job dudes!
Thank you! We did think about adding a pet, but there was already enough work animating 7 human characters, so we had to skip it.
Great little game here with a unique take on the theme. Thankfully everyone survived even though it took a while for me to figure out how to stop the kid throwing food lol. Great game well done
Thanks! Glad to know you could beat it with everyone surviving.
The most model family dinner simulator. Very fun !
Thanks!
lol I manage to make them all survive, it is really fun
Pro gamer here ;) Thanks!
I think the different mechanics are very well thought out: It's fun to play, even though you only have to click on things. I also envy you for your aspect ratio handling. I just can't get it right . I' m new to gameDev so pls tell me your secrets XD.
Thank you! The game engine I use (Construct 3) handles aspect ratios automatically, so can't help you there, sorry! xD
