Fun little cooking game. Was kinda hard to figure out at first but i got the hang of it eventually.
Thanks for the feedback! We're planning to add a mini tutorial when the jam ends.
Overall I think everything this game was pretty well thought out, I managed to quickly learn how to play with no tutorial in about less than a minute. Completing an order without ever looking at the ingredient book had at times occurred while playing. The only thing I think I might've taken a bit longer to find out was the location of the strawberries as I thought the branch was just a part of the background. So maybe a small cool idea would be to have all the interactable objects slowly glow more over time if it hasn't been touched for the first time.
I think Overall this is a really well made game and definitely a chill/cozy one. Amazing Job!
We'll definitely make the branch stand out more one way or another when we update the game. Thanks for the feedback!
Played and rated!
I love games with ingredient mixing as a mechanic. The art was nice and the music was relaxing, made it all very cozy, nice job!
Thanks! :D
The mechanics are sweet, simple, and fun :) Quite a nice and cozy entry overall!
I feel like I learned a lot about jam and pickling, and learning new things is always the best part of a jam to me!

Thanks for the kinds words, Mopi! :)
Art and sound effects nicely come together. Also we love the player character as well as the music!
Thank you! :D
Beautiful game, fits the theme very well! A lil bug: the vegetable names tend to overlaps. That apart, the games works very well!
Yeah, the UI text was a last-minute change, so I didn't get to iron it out, but I'll be fixing it after the jam. Thanks for playing and for the comment!
Cool game man, i really liked it. Its very relaxing :D
Thanks! :)
Cool cooking game, really fun (also I made 24 jams (⌐■_■))
Wow, that's better than me! Thanks for playing. :D
Music and art felt very cozy. It felt a little unresponsive at times, but that is my only criticism. I like how, over time, I would get used to the recipes, and not have to look at the cook book. Very cozy autumn of a game. Good job.
Thank you for the feedback!
the music was veryy god and cozy ! i loved the artwork...very great work!
Thank you!
its the most fun game ive played so far! (after my own :P)
its super cozy, and it was so fun it made me play another run to see what score i could get
nice work!
theres a bug where if you open recipe book while cutting you can then move
also wished the recipes had the pictures instead of names
Thanks for playing! We'll be updating the game, so we appreciate the feedback. :D
The great game make it to 18!
14 !
Everything fit well together, the music makes it really cozy.
Thanks for playing!
That was a super enjoyable little game! Well done!
I have one suggestion and one bug that I found:
Suggestion: I think the descriptor of the order for the top friend should be visible above the ingredient when you are cutting something. I found myself trying to read what needs to be done next, but the text was hidden behind the icon.
Bug: I tried to be too fast I guess, and managed to put in new ingredients into the pot, while I hadn't taken out the finished good yet. This lead to my ingredients all vanishing. Had to fetch everything again. Seems like a weird exception that won't happen too often. But I thought I'd share it.
Overall, great success! :)
Yeah, I didn't get to completely iron out the UI in time. The bug with the pot I didn't come across, but I'll fix it when the jam is over. Thanks so much for the feedback!
Nailed it! Everything came together so well. The art and music made it more than just cozy, but I felt a pang of nostalgia for the dos adventure games I played as a kid - it had that sort of classic vibe to it. Probably the most overall polished/cohesive experience I've had so far.
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it.
Nice artwork and music, definitely giving the cozy autumn feel! Just a bit of confused at first because I thought the game only can control by mouse, but instead both mouse and keyboard.
Thanks for playing and for the comment! We didn't have time to implement a very quick tutorial, but it's on our to-do list once the jam is over.
I will see you in the top 10! What a cozy and awesome little gameplay loop. I enjoyed this a lot.
Thank you, I'm so glad you liked it. :D
Very cute game! I love the artstyle and the laid back nature. Personally i could have used a pointer at the recipe book as i needed some time to find it ^^
Thanks for playing and for the feedback! We'll be updating the game after the rating period ends, and this is definitely something we'll add. :D
First cooking game I played in the jam. I really liked the concept and art style. Well Done!
Thank you!
Super nice to play!
Now I have to look up some of those recipes cause they looked delicious!
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it. :D
