Cute little game :) And nice voice acting haha.

It is so funny to see the customers going in and out on their chairs hahaha

I managed to stuck the waiter by placing objects in his path, and it kind of prevent me from finishing my task. But I guess it is a part of the game.

To give you my opinion, I feel like a score or a timer could add some depth to the game, or a reason to try again. Also it might be fun to add some hindrance, like people trying to stop you. 

Anyway well done :)

Developer

Thanks for playing and especially for the feedback. The game is quite buggy, but sometimes it creates even more chaos (and sometimes it prevents players to finish a game :D).

The score was planned to be in the game, but there wasn't time to make it enjoyable. But you're right, that it will make the game more replayable and that some kind of hindrance for the player would be only for good.

Very nice game, it felt nice to play and looked pretty good. Good job. :)

Developer

Thank you.

Pretty nice game! The idea is really cute, and the artstyle and voice acting match really well! Completing the tasks felt super fun - worked out really well!

I'd appreciate it if you checked out my game as well!

Developer

Thank you, I will check your game as well.

I really loved that scream mechanic combined with the headless Waiter outfit

Submitted

I really liked the theme!!

Thanks

Nice little game. Quite fun to play.

Maybe use also right shift to scream. Some small problem on the order of the sprites but still quite fun to play. Loved the "quests" in the todo list.

Developer

Nice idea with the right Shift key. And also thanks for playing.

Submitted

Hey~

I really liked the theme, I thought it was super creative and nostalgic. The scream button was an excellent touch.

One critique I have is that figuring out how to drop the food on the floor was confusing. Yelling at the waiter when he was carrying it didn't finish the task which felt odd.


I had a lot of fun and really enjoyed playing, great job :)

Developer

Thanks, I understand that it isn't well described and the yelling thing should finish the task as it is now descibed.

Submitted

This was super fun! The task I struggled on was putting food on the floor because I think the waiter only ever brings food out once and I missed the chance to steal it :( Great concept though, well done :D

Developer

Thanks for playing, it's true, that the waiter is holding food not so often.

Submitted

Pretty funny one, I really enjoyed playing it!
It also brings me memories of my own childhood hahaha

Great game!

Developer

I really liked the concept of the game. I couldn't figure out how to give the waiter flowers. It was incredibly chaotic for sure! thumbs up!  

check out our game too please!

Thanks, I will check your game on Saturday, so don't be worry if you didn't see my comment under your game soon. You can get a flower by breaking a flowerpod. When you are close to the waiter and press E (to put down a object) he will take the flower from you.

But to program this it almost break the whole holding objects mechanic, because it was implemented as the last thing in the game and it was very hard to put down a object and then collect it in the same frame, because the system was built to prevent this.

I was searching for beer all the time ;-)

Nice game, find my video review below:

Developer

Thank you

This game is amazing! I think I may have ruined this poor waiter life though... :D

Developer(+1)

Thanks, he deserves it.

This is a real fun concept! I liked the idea of this kid bringing to-do list of ways to cause chaos - it got a good laugh out of me. :P

The controls felt a bit slippery and the throwing force felt too weak to hit enemies from a distance, so if you continue this I think you should look into making the controls more tight. 

Great work!

Developer

Thank you, especially for the feedback. I'm glad you laughed, because that was the primary idea of this game.

Awesome game team :D, too bad you cant set the whole building on fire lol

Developer

Thanks, if the game jam was just a week longer I think it would be possible.
