Charming! I liked the automated production where I didn't have to micromanage everything.

It might be fun to upgrade one stat at a time in each pipe, so I could decide whether I want to prioritize speed or quality.

The money amount might be better in the top right corner, it gets lost in the pipe graphics.

Developer

Thanks! I know I should have put the money counter in the top right...

But what do you mean by 'decide whether I want to prioritize speed or quality.'? Can't you just adjust the sliders in the pipe menu?

Thanks for playing my game!

Submitted

Those were sliders? It never occurred to me.

Developer

Yeah I probably should have made a more visual tutorial

Submitted

Nice little game, props for developing it in java ! I skipped the instructions too fast, could be great to have them back with a key or smt, and the money text is sometime not readable well.

Have you check mine ? :) https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-3/rate/572864

Developer

Thanks! I wanted to make the textboxes return, but I ran out of time. I'll check out your game as well!

Submitted

Smooth gameplay.Check out my game also.

Developer

Thanks! I'll check yours out too.

Submitted

Rate the game fast because I want to come in top 50 rank and I can help you to spread your game to others and you can also come in top 100,so please rate it fast I will help you also.

Developer

But you already have more than 40 ratings right? You don't get any benefit from more ratings I think

Submitted

Ok. At first I burst into laughter when I saw that this is Java. Then I started playing. Turns out the game is really well made! It's more addictive than I thought. You did an amazing job at everything really :) Every ingredient has information stored in it that gets passed on to other ingredients/products. I've always been afraid of resource management games, because of how hard it is to make/balance one. But seeing someone make it for a jam?
I don't know how you managed to make this in Java but congrats! You deserve a cookie my friend :P

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I like cookies!

Submitted

This art is so cool! Love it.

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

gameplay experience is amazing, java is my favourite but i use java with unity😁 rather than scratch

Developer

Thanks! I really love how satisfying Java is.

Submitted

please check out mine too

I'm wondering did you use any game engine or you made your own one during the jam? An interesting game of running a cheese factory. Btw, I used the same songs for the Global Game Jam last year. It brings back my memories.

Developer

Well I use LibGDX, which isn't really a game engine, but more just an engine to draw images on screen. I coded movement and everything myself.

And Kevin Macleod is amazing for game jams of course!

Submitted

Nice Concept!Fun to play! Awesome Game, really liked it.Its a Solid entry.

I hope you like my game too! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I'll play your game this afternoon.

Submitted

I'm really hoping you plan to port this to mobile, seems something you could very well spend couple minutes with.

Developer

I'd like to, but I don't have a clue as to how to do that. But thanks!

Submitted

Thought its a simple game after looking at screenshots but its Not...

Great job on the gameplay experience..

Developer(+1)

Thank you! It was kind of my goal to create depth in the game

Submitted

I've never seen a game quite like this! Cute premise with a surprising amount of depth!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! That's what I was going for!

Submitted

Very fun game :D

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

This game would make a great app to pass the time. I think I missed a text box though and didn't realize you could adjust the sliders on the machines until later than I should have. A menu to pull up tutorial hints could be helpful. Great work and I love the pun!

Developer(+1)

Yes I was thinking about adding little 'info' buttons, but I didn't have enough time left, so I decided to polish the game instead of adding that. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Very good idea.The graphics and music are great. Very fun game.

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Very interesting concept. It almost plays like an idle game which is neat. I like the ability to move the sliders to customize your pipeline.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! The sliders were kind of meant to be the main mechanic, so I'm glad you liked it!

Submitted

It's a really cool game.  It's addictive and has a good music.

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Dude I love the concept :D Honestly I wasn't really sure what to do but I super appreciate the effort to make cheese production a game haha. I wasn't sure what to do exactly by clicking the pipes? I loved the whimsical audio too.

Developer(+1)

The idea is that you click the pipes to upgrade them, so you can make better cheese. The slider is meant so you can change how fast items are produced, and how good they are. Thanks for playing it!

Submitted

I cannot believe you made this in only 7 days. And in pure java! 5 stars all around I really enjoyed my self

Developer

I don't know if I would call it 'pure' Java, I used the 'LibGDX' engine. But thanks!

Submitted

Addicting game! The music fits well with the game.

You can improve the game just by adding a save and load system so you don't lose your progress when you quit the game. 

Great job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I was considering adding a save/load system, but I didn't have a lot of time left, so I decided to polish the game some more instead of adding it.
